Caribbean cricket is synonymous with ‘chin music’, the art of short-pitched fast bowling, which paceman Liam Plunkett wants to sample when England play West Indies in three Tests.
Plunkett is pushing for a place, having established himself in the Test team last summer only to suffer an ankle problem that ruled him out of the last three games with India.
The injury ended Plunkett’s season in mid-July, denying him a part in England’s 3-1 defeat of India and Yorkshire clinching the LV= County Championship.
He stepped up his recovery on the England Performance Programme fast bowlers camp in South Africa late last year before returning to playing action on England Lions’ tour of the same country at the start of this year.
Impressive displays for the Lions, notably taking 4-91 from 26 first-innings overs in searing heat at Paarl, led to his inclusion in the Test squad for the Windies tour.
Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

Well good for him. I only hope that the pitches he plays on will enable him to ruffle batsmen up because these pitches nowadays are a batting paradise. Too much slow pitches where the ball keeps low.

he is just a trundler right..? Can't even crank up 140 and he still wants to ruffle batsmen..?
@The Chairman : Exactly..he might just be put away with ease..He hasn't been all that impressive at all.

Did you see much of Plunkett last summer? Have you seen him on the county circuit? I'm not the biggest Plunkett fan but he did bowl well and with pace against Sri Lanka last summer, taking 22 wickets in 5 matches at an average of 28.59. On the downside, he didn't fare well against India in the two matches he played, taking 7 wickets at an average of 41.28.

No..I was talking about pace and "rustling" and 'hustling" batsmen for space,getting them cramped up.
he doesn't do that right.? Whatever may his track record be..
