It does seem that way. We do throw quite a few youngsters into T20 and One-Dayers. As long as they learn from their experiences and improve then it's a decent way to 'blood' them. However, the batting lineup still looks to be mis-firing even in the County Championship. Could make for a closer title race than last year.
That is true but someone always seems to come good in Championship matches to get us there. In one day games, we are little better now than we were ten years ago.
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
