However Matt did well as you said and offers all round ability.With Old Trafford often helping spin, he would be a good option. So too would Tom Knight, who ironically was developing into a Parry-type bowler until his action was changed. I really hope he is on his way back and yesterday's wickets will do him good!Peakfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01328174919897893268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-46846306391908034.post-42566543576740019912016-05-20T06:22:40.480+01:002016-05-20T06:22:40.480+01:00I think you are spot on, the only change that may ...I think you are spot on, the only change that may happen is Matt Critchley - the side that played the first T20 yesterday was the same but with Matt in for Chesney and I think that was probably Graeme's first choice side. Hopefully we will perform much better this year in T20 and I think the balance of the side is much better with perhaps the only thing lacking is another established spinner, a Stephen Parry type bowler but Matt bowled some good spells in the 50 over game last year so if he gets the nod it will be interesting to see how he does.
