Good one that

Anyhow, you're dead right there - not many of them West Indians nowadays seem comfy against the fast, short stuff. Gayle can play them and Harmison knows that pretty well. So can Shiv but other than that, it looks bleak. Sarwan is known to get out from hooking/pulling a lot.

Exactly Sledge. Vaughan's days seem to be over.

I dont expect Harmison to feature in the Stanford game. He just ain't the T20 type of guy imo.

I have to say that I'm still more confident in seeing a solid openingpartnership of Strauss/Cook than I am of a Vaughan/Cook one. Yes, we all know how wonderful Vaughan has been , but that's my point , ishe a has-been ?]]> Thu, 11 Sep 2008 05:49:02 +0000 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4709&PID=186543#186543 ECB Central Contracts 2008-9 : He was however player of the series... http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4709&PID=186527#186527 Author: Clobber

He was however player of the series in the series immediately before SA, so discarding him so soon after would be ludicrously harsh.]]> Wed, 10 Sep 2008 19:36:17 +0000 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4709&PID=186527#186527 ECB Central Contracts 2008-9 : Originally posted by zuhair_abbasiWhy... http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4709&PID=186517#186517 Author: slogger72N/O

He hasn't exactly been brilliant over the last year, he's only played a few tests after being dropped and he was rubbish against South Africa. I'm surprised he wasn't given an incremental contact.

Hoggard has been undone indeed. Broad has done well in ODI's but I'm sure an out of form Hoggard would have had more impact in the tests! Well, Broad has scored runs so, I guess it makes up for that.]]> Wed, 10 Sep 2008 15:34:46 +0000 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4709&PID=186514#186514 ECB Central Contracts 2008-9 : It must be a concern Clobs , the... http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4709&PID=186507#186507 Author: Sledger

It must be a concern Clobs , the T20 jaunt should be okay but Indiamight just get to him. If it does , then Hoggy has even morereason to feel aggrieved. ]]> Wed, 10 Sep 2008 13:00:25 +0000 http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4709&PID=186507#186507 ECB Central Contracts 2008-9 : Watch Harmison slip back into... http://www.cricketworld.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4709&PID=186506#186506 Author: Clobber

Watch Harmison slip back into his comfort zone - now he knows his money is secure for another year it'll be no surprise at all if his performance level tapers right off again.

England have just given out their central contracts and some new incremental contracts that I believe pay less than central ones but go up with every game you play. England have also announced a squad for the India ODI's and the Stanford super series.

Central Contracts

Anderson
Bell
Broad
Collingwood
Cook
Flintoff
Harmison
Panesar
Pietersen
Sidebottom
Strauss
Vaughan

Incremental Contracts

Ambrose
Bopara
Patel
Prior
Shah
Swann
Wright

India ODI's + Stanford Super Series

Pietersen (c)
Anderson
Bell
Bopara
Broad
Collingwood
Cook
Flintoff
Harmison
Patel
Prior
Shah
Swann
Sidebottom
Wright

Interesting that Strauss still has his central contract and also that Vaughn got given one. Ambrose also gets an incremental contract along with Prior which suggests both will go to India.
