I think he's played for the first team before but he is definitely a fringe player. He's been rooting around for 232 balls to get them. Shocking run rate PS Big disappointment for our England wicketkeeper yesterday. He threw his wicket away on 198. Where do they find these players
He's injured at the moment (again). Time is taking its toll on his body, but he is still a top bowler. We won't see much of him this season but there is plenty in the squad to account for his, and Bresnan's, absence.
I read some where that Gillespie is hoping to get 8 championship games out of him. He does have an option to extend his contract for 2017. A great player. At one time I thought that he might finish up with the same number of England caps as his dad but with one less wicket but he turned it around when with Notts.
