At present Boyce, Thornely, Cobb, Sarwan and Eckersley have scored hundreds and White has made some runs. Smith and Du Toit average around and less than 15 this season after 8 games. To play one in the first team is bad management to play both means that there needs to be a signficant review of the structure of Leicestershire CCC. Having two out of the top 5 with averages of 15 and below is major weakness and puts extra pressure on the rest.
Smith has a big problem with LBWs and plays across the line and you can't compare Boyce to Du Toit and Smith. Boyce will, if he plays a significant amount of games get over 700/800 runs at around 30 a season and Jefferson likewise is closer to 1000 runs a season batsman. Smith has talent and is the best part of a decade younger than Du Toit, who has averaged 15 over all forms of cricket for the past 2 years. Du Toit has had 1 good season and nothing else. As pointed out Cobb will always be hit and miss. It's too early to say whether Thornely will be good or bad. One thing is for sure is that Du Toit shouldn't be near the first team. Kadeer Ali isn't being used probably for me - he should be in the one day side for sure.
On the bowling Hoggard, Henderson, White, Malik and Joseph are Leicester best bowlers at present and probably in that order. Hoggard and Henderson can't carry on much longer, White seems to get runs and wickets, but can be expensive, Joseph hit and miss and Malik is being underused in a big way. White is not a 3rd seamer, more a 4/5 seamer and to go into a game with Buck, who rarely takes wickets at present and Joseph, who is all or nothing type player is bad selection.
Bar White I think most of bowlers particuarly Buck and Wyatt have gone backwards, so whoever is in charge of the bowling needs to take look at themselves. Naik was bowling rubbish before he got injured and was being outbowled by Sykes, Henderson is becoming more expensive. All the bowlers are shipping no balls and wides by the gallon load at present.
Finally Glamorgan's bowling isn't that bad Waters and Allenby are decent enough, Cosker is experienced spinner and James Harris is probably one of the best seamers in the divison.
