Michael Yardy??

[deep82]

2 matches, 2 success

where the hell this guy was hiding? This guy is better than 853 guys Eng tried in last 2 years!

Looks to me that Yardy has a good temperament.

[James]

He looks alright. He plays with a straight bat and bowls tight spells of spin, an all-rounder that you would think would be even more suited to India than England. He deserves a chance in the CT!

[Pathan007]

reminds me of Michael Bevan

[evertonfan]

It's about damn time as well! A fine player and he should have been given a place earlier.

[Big Harvey]

He looks the part from what I've seen so far. His averages suggest that he's an out and out one day player though.

[Savak]

He spins the ball and bowls at a quickish pace. its not easy to get after him.

[deep82]

I must add that if ENG sort out their pace bowling options then they could atleast reach the semifinals stage of CT. Yardley & Darylempere would be quite effective in the middle overs & ENG have the batsman to upset superior teams.
But if the pace bowlers failed in powerplays then no chance.

[Oxy]

Been surprised by the amount he turns it - I guess that explains why Monty isnt in the ODI squad.

[INZItheman]

the way he bats! his leg on the side-very weird and funny! but he is a good player. Can bat and spin it as well. Very useful cricketer for Eng in ODI's!

[KB]

His stance is peculiar, but by the time the ball is released he is in a much more orthodox position.

[garbage_can2003]

Has a good temperament too considering the way he batted today!

[deep82]

I take my words back-He's rubbish and rightly kicked out from the team.

BTW does PAK made Yardy look so 'special'?

Pakistan has a habit of making players look much better than they really are.

We specialise in making ordinary players look special.
