You're right about Adams' ...Afternoon Rich<br /><br />You're right about Adams' plan, but I'm sure he said it was a 4 year plan when he first started, he's a little off the pace on the progress front. I think things were in worse shape at the club than he ever imagine, but that's by the by now, we have to look forwards and all that! I think he's built a good little side and they should be at least competing on all fronts. And yes, I was sure Rana and Arafat were roughly the same age, but apparently not!GreenJJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03658909094741780394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83358194924503872.post-52363737162884118062011-01-30T09:55:34.673+00:002011-01-30T09:55:34.673+00:00Good stuff and totally agree that the spin departm...Good stuff and totally agree that the spin department is the only major worry. I think it will be the major obstacle between us gaining promotion, but after the last few seasons just a year in which we challenge would be a start. As Tim says, we'll be a real force in the 20 and 40 over formats and a decent championship season plus a semi-final/final in one of the limitted overs comps would be a step forward. Adams' plan is clearly a 3-4 year one. Maynard, Arafat (how is he only 28?!), De Bruyn and Tait are all promising signings...Rich Abbotthttp://www.cricket.mailliw.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83358194924503872.post-12246167784584407052011-01-27T11:12:41.128+00:002011-01-27T11:12:41.128+00:00Hi Tim

I think Adams has done a good job preparing a team aside from that though, and like you say, our limited overs side looks dangerous, better than last year and it was pretty decent then too!GreenJJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03658909094741780394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83358194924503872.post-10764471020995149602011-01-27T10:50:24.642+00:002011-01-27T10:50:24.642+00:00Unfortunately I don't see us getting promoted ...Unfortunately I don't see us getting promoted in the CC without a more penetrating spin option. Happy to be proved wrong though!<br /><br />In limited overs though I think we're very well placed.<br /><br />TimAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
