I agree to a point, but picking him right now is just unkind, he is so out of form (I mean I saw him play a T20 for Kent at Lords between tests and he made some bang average seamers look like a peak period West Indies)
But it shouldnt be Terminal, they need to work with him.
And on the meantime, find a way to get Harry Brook in the side. He's a different level of of player.
Yes totally agree. The SA series is 6 weeks away, I think England will want Crawley to play as much County cricket as he can.
One of the problems is he is too loose for an opener, so a replacement probably will be another opener, maybe Sibley again is an option. Less extravagant and more defensive.
The problem with Brook or Bohannon to name 2 is unless they open a re jig in the order is difficult to see.
I actually think Crawley has more chance at 4 or 5- but there’s no space.
I cannot see a spot for Brook for the next series. Highly rated I would agree with you, but where does he fit in.
Crawley is not the only one, Lees is just starting out in the side but finding pace and movement is different in tests than County
