    ok ,the list was made today on who gets central contracts from the ECB, usualy suspects, nothing weird,

    but seeing as they haven`t "employed" a wicketkeeper, who pays them, is it their clubs? if so, why the hell should the club let them play for england all the time, and we all know if you`re in the england set up, you dont just meet up a play a game like in football, you rarely spend any time at your prospective club

    personally i think this is totally wrong, look at hampshire for instance, has Pieterson actually played for them at all this season?

    i honestly believe, and this is just my opinion mind, that the players DONT play enough county cricket, when their with england they only play test matchs and 1 dayers, but obviously dont play every day, but train, but would it be better for them to play all the time, in a different enviornment, as the old cliche goes, "familiarity breeds content"

    look at Bell for instance, went a bit stail in the england set up, went back to warwickshire, played great, and the chnage did him the world of good, he`s now arguably the most in form player england have

    whats your thoughts lads, ive been dying to post this for ages, but kept forgetting, im really looking forward to your views on this issue
