England, Game Recap

Graham Napier's magnificent 152 not out against Sussex in the T20 cup was an exhibition of superb long range hitting. He literally took the opposition's bowling attack apart and just kept hitting sixes, 16 in total. Although the boundaries were bought in and significantly smaller than other grounds, it didn't matter because the shots were huge.

Batsman these days possess such strength and ability that they can hit to any parts of the ground. The modern day bats don't go in opposing bowlers favour either, where pushes down the ground race away to the boundary. An exciting new batch of cricketers is now coming through county ranks, and it is only a matter of time before we see them in an England shirt.
