@SouthyA - YES!, Martin Bicknell (11:48) was a very underrated English bowler who should defnitely have played more Tests, he only played a subtle 4 Test matches for England, two in '93 & two in '03!
@Crkt4Eva I think if Bicknell had more pace, he would have played a lot more because we became obsessed with finding faster bowlers. I think we still have that obsession actually. When he came back for a couple of tests against South Africa a few years ago, he proved that great swing bowling doesn't necessarily need great pace, and he really should have played more for England, I agree. Pretty decent lower order batsman too.
Jack Banister is great
