Daryl Mitchell

You might do it to Abbas.

You could get a top edge though quite easily, whereas with the ramp shot, especially like the Daryl Mitchell sort of ramp, where he's really still and steady, and it's almost a paddle.

The, yeah, but, but you could get a top edge to a ramp as well.

Hmm.

He's obviously pretty cheeky, but there's a few cheeky lads in the group.

Daryl Mitchell's always up to a few different tricks here and there, but we've got a really good bunch of guys across all three formats, to be fair.

And we're very fortunate with the guys that we've got, the talent that we've got, and And, yeah, we're playing some good cricket as well.

Tom Latham with us.

So it's almost like showing that, you know, the baton is passing on.

But I guess the way that what was thrown at us at Trent Bridge, you know, towards the end of that test with injuries and the way Daryl Mitchell batted and everything else really did give me a lot of hope that, you know, that DNA is still there.

And I just think that was a really clear illustration to everybody watching that game of the DNA of this team and what it's all about and that some of that intrinsic stuff that has carried on through that we've spoken about, you know, since before 2015, that continues on and is still there.

Yeah.

The third test match, which New Zealand won.

Daryl Mitchell, in the third inning, scores 100 of 240.

Right? Sonal Dhinusha has played 770 deliveries against India in fucking three test matches.

Two test matches, sir.

It did become very tricky to bat on as the game went on.

Daryl Mitchell made that, you know, extraordinary 100, where he had so many, uh, blows to his body.

But we, we don't really quite know what this Pakistan series win for England, uh, is worth.

And you, you kind of feel, oh, a little bit, oh, there's another Test match to come.

You've got to manipulate the field.

And we were lucky enough in the 50s before we went to the, um, uh, Sri Lankan World Cup last year, had 40 minutes with Daryl Mitchell on the phone in a conference call with the whole team.

It was the best.

It really hit home in terms of simple game plans.

Who would be the worst person in the team to be on the tunes?

Um, I guess D- Daryl Mitchell gets a bit of a hard time.

He, um, he was on tunes.

Um, and then, um, yeah, Smudge has taken over tunes, so, uh, yeah, Dar's got a bit of a hard time.

It's a, uh, it's a hard job.

So I'm certainly thankful that I don't have it.

Yeah, I've heard Daryl Mitchell's a bit of a secret country music fan too, so he's, he's probably mourning this week with the loss of Dolly Parton.

I didn't want him...

The press release was, was quite confusing, but I managed to find these ones.

So Daryl Mitchell's playing for Dublin.

Mark Chapman and Devon Conway will be playing for the Belfast Wolves.

Uh, Mitch Santner is gonna captain the Castle Rockers of Edinburgh, uh, with Trent Boult in his bowling attack, and Finn Allen, uh, gets the Glasgow Cosmic off to great starts.
