He also hinted at some impressive signings but of course could name no names. Look out for the full interview on deep extra cover soon!

What he meant was that we no longer have to offer peanuts for players. And Amla was world number one or two when he got to us, Dilshan came in off a great World Cup where he scored heavily. It didnt work but was far from our erstwhile signings of Clive Inman and Fred Trueman!Peakfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01328174919897893268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-46846306391908034.post-67564073831954412792016-08-16T15:46:57.632+01:002016-08-16T15:46:57.632+01:00Very aposite piece(as usual)

However your statement that apart from Slater and Thakor no one has set world alight implies that Slater has!<br />Really ? He is nearly 25 ( so no longer a youngster) and averages in his first class career 28 from 80 innings. This season he averages 28 also so no progress there despite the batsmen friendly tracks.<br />As for Chris Grants statement about " there is no player who we could not sign " - dubious at best ! I have been a fan of Grants but statements like that do nothing for me. Remember Amla and Dilshan ? It's not about getting people on the way down who take the money and run !Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12135898923000893879noreply@blogger.com
