Rob Key Still Have Hopes On Struggling Alex Lees and Zak Crawley
England cricket's managing director and the current selection panel head Rob Key has backed out-of-form openers Alex Lees and Zak Crawley, saying he is willing to give more time to the struggling pair despite them scoring a combined 477 runs at an average of 21.68 in six home Tests this summer.
Crawley has been going through a prolonged form slump at the top, with the 24-year-old opener managing just nine and 13 against the Proteas in the opening Test at Lord's, which England lost by an innings and 12 runs inside three days.
