I was only joking spin wiz. I am a big Ramps fan and would love to see him play but Bell has a big future, I'm not denying that.

The tour of Sri Lanka will test Bell and his teammates to the full. They need to get the runs on the board in the first innings before Murali gets prodigious turn in the second dig.
    Tough place to tour , probably second only to Australia. 
Mental disintegration works for me !!

  Adelaide can have seriously high temperatures , but I agree , the heat and humidity in Sri Lanka is incredibly oppressive.   The last South African tour there, the visitors were dropping like flies - cramping was a serious issue and South Africans are used to high temperatures.

Best cover drive in cricket right now imo, very balanced with beautiful tempo, good player of spin as well should be interesting to see how his career pans out
 

 

cheers

Maybe, he might be a bit like Punter except not AS good.

He is nowhere near Ponting right now but he has a very bright future at number 3. He played very well in the series against India and SL.
