Cricket Archive are now crediting Dan Mousley with a first-class hundred so have changed their mind about the status of his latest match.
Cricket Archive are now crediting Dan Mousley with a first-class hundred so have changed their mind about the status of his latest match.
And the official Warwickshire channels normally refer to the awful “red ball” so it’s good to seeing them recognise this as a first class hundred - presumably prompted by someone.
Dan Mousley is part of the England squad for the Hong Kong Sixes tournamet next weekend alongside former Bear Ethan Brookes.
Ed Barnard and Alex Davies played last year and it seems to have have been good for confidence for them last season.

Decent for Dan - but why, oh why (and how?) did we ever let Ethan Brookes get away?! The most amazing 50, by the sound of it (and retired hurt), coupled with an outstanding bowling performance! Oh dear!

Congrats Dan - named as captain for the Lions 50 over side next month.

To captain the England Lions who play South Africa A later this month.
Yes, fairly strong Lions squad too.
Will miss the first 4 Blast matches.
it seems an odd choice, to me. I feel pretty confident in saying Dan Mousley is never playing test cricket for England, but then they haven't seriously been using the 'Lions' as a feeder for the test team in many many years. who needs stuff like that when you can pick people based on 90 second clips on youtube? #vibes
I guess they liked his leadership when he captained those white ball games? or maybe they like his #vibes
of course I am largely grumbling from a selfish perspective but i feel like the Bears' loss is very unlikely to translate into either Mousley's, or England's gain, in terms of him getting a place in either red or white ball teams.
