Ravi Bopara of Essex Cricket Club has been included into the England Cricket Squad to face the West Indies in the 2 match test series.

Bopara scored a century in his last test against the West Indies in Barbados and now looks set to fill the number 3 position which has proved troublesome for the England Squad to fill since Michael Vaughan’s demise.

Ravi Bopara’s test career didn’t exactly start off in a promising manner with 3 duck’s in succession. He has however now hit back to back hundreds in the latest West Indies Test Series which means 3 duck’s followed by 3 hundreds, which has never been done by a Test player before!!

With his run of good form and small bits of fortune throughout his knocks of late he looks to have cemented his position at number 3 for at least the forceable future. Lets hope they stick with him as his talent is unquestionable! Ravi’s unquestionable confidence in his ability makes the batsman at the other end look ridiculous at times.

Bring on the aussies, although I am pretty certain their attack wont be as easy to dominate!

Ravi Bopara - Another 100!
