Just wanted to get your guys thoughts on Callum Fergurson. Do you guys reckon he could fit in our best team and be a regular International player. I really hope so he is on of my favorites.:thumbsu:
 
A quality player, that get's talked up a lot on here. No doubting his talent, but he hasn't dominated the Shield as a player that has the ability he has should. Injured a lot, but not taking him to the World Cup was a joke. Should definitely be in the ODI team in the middle order. Doesn't deserve test selection yet, but definitely has the capabilities to be an international class batsman.

He did go to the World Cup but he only played in one of the warm-ups. It was the match where Chawla made him and almost the entire line-up look gormless against the turning ball.

His problem was that he wasn't a mediocre part-time bowler so they played other people ahead of him.

Don't see why he should be a front-runner for tests. A first class average like his at Adelaide Oval is a scandal for a talented player.

Ah ok, forgot he went. If I recall correctly, he wasn't picked in the initial squad because he can't bowl, but somebody got injured?

yeah agree with this. he needs to really concentrate and make some BIG scores. needs to work on his leaving. i'm expecting him to have a big season under berry. if he doesn't put his hand up properly by the time ponting and hussey get axed (probs end of this summer) he might miss the boat
 
Needs a big big year in first class cricket to truly earn a baggygreen IMO. Looks at home in the 50 over games. Will play Husseys role down the track IMO. He is a very classy bat but he just never goes on with his starts to make the big score. Should have dominated playing at the Adelaide Oval.
 
soooo many blokes are ahead of him at the moment in terms of test selection. S Marsh, Ed Cowan, Khawaja just to name a few.

he is a little flakey outside that off stump, needs to put the cover drive away a little more in the longer formats, drives on the up way too much for a guy of his ability, hes not lara or tendulkar yet.

his fielding is sound but there are just so many other guys who can occupy the crease much better than him
