He doesn't seem to me learning from those mistakes of seeing the fielders on the boundary, and he clearly doesn't strike the ball cleanly enough to get it over them.
Moor, on the other hand, does. I'd have Moor in for Raza, who's spin I've always said is just cannon fodder, never rated his bowling, and his batting look awful, at the moment...
Bring in somebody fresh and hungry, and see where we go from there. I'd still like to see Chisoro in there somewhere but, it's who to drop as all of our seamers have done a surprisingly good job thus far.
The key, in my opinion, is getting that little pain in the ass out up front; Jesus he can bat. No slogging or anything there, this Shazad is a serious batter and he'll take it away from us if he's not removed early.

It might also be the reason why Waller has looked strangely becalmed: having realised that this is not a slogging ground he's gone back into his ODI shell. It seems Williams got the dose right yesterday, although I only watched the back end of his innings.

I remember thinking "Williams better start accelarting cuz he's been out there for a while," cuz ai thought he was going at a run a ball. Instead he was 30 off 20 at the time. No slogging, no effor. Took singles, pushed for the odd double, and put the bad omes away for 4.

That reminds me of the time when Sangakarra nonchalantly dsimantled our bowling attack in the world T20 in SL a few years ago. We had them on the ropes a bit, Dilshan and Jayawardene back in the hut, and even Sanga struggling to pick Cremer's googly initially. But then he just started to manoeuvre every good ball into the gaps for twos and to put the fractionally less good ones away. A masterpiece in classical batting if ever I've seen one in a T20.
Scotland looked the most dangerous when they stopped trying to hit every ball over the ropes. The problem with our running is that we currently don't have many guys who are both quick and communicate well together. Williams/Raza could possibly run threes on this ground, but they could equally run each other out off the first ball of their partnership.But we surely must have fulfilled our quota of farcial run outs for this tournament.
