Andrew Hodd.

With M/P away on England duty,Andrew Hodd looks safe to retain the 'Gloves' However should Prior be dropped by Englan next season ( and i don't think he has been offered a central contract ? ) What would you like to see Adams & Robinson do ? For me i would keep Hodd,he has done a fine job.

andrew hodd is a cricketing genius fact!

Difficult one. Prior would want the gloves. There is certainly room for the both of them batting, but would either be keen to play outfield?

I really thought we were going to pay a heavy price, having let Ambrose leave, but Hodd has been nothing short of remarkable.

Aside from that, I see that Warks are in danger of facing the drop!

Hodd is a far better keeper than Prior. Unfortunately, Prior is a victim of the let's- find-another-Alec Stewart syndrome. He's not quite good enough as a batsman or a keeper to play for England. Ambrose was always better as a keeper. Moores has landed Sussex with a problem. Personally think that Hodd should be our keeper and that Prior should be asked to play as a specialist batter to improve his technique. Doubt whether he'll buy it though.

Prior plays.End of.

Even though Hodd is a better keeper?
Ambrose was chosen ahead of Prior in 2003 when Prior played as a batsman.

Prior needs to improve his keeping at international level but for Sussex I've hardly seen him put a foot wrong. He could definitely play as a specialist batsman but then who do you drop? Your just wasting him in that case. I don't no why everyone says Hodd's a better keeper anyway, he could hardly keep against India could he?

Prior all the way for me

great ton from Hoddy against Yorkshire and has come on so much this season...it's a tough one i like the idea of Prior to just bat !

Rumour is Prior won't get a central contract. Would probably lean towards Prior playing for Sussex (especially in one day/Twenty20).

Nice problem to have though.

Is the correct answer and would be surpised if Adams though differently. I remember Adams saying that the gloves were Priors when we were on sky a couple of months back.

 

[SeagullTim]

Prior to play as a specialist batsman and Hodd to keep. Prior used to not like keeping anyway, so I don't think he'd mind not keeping.

One day -

Nash
Prior
Wright
Goodwin
Adams
Yardy
Hodd (wk)
Rana/Mushy (whoever we keep)
Martin - Jenkins
Saqlain
Kirtley

ambrose was the better keeper too - didn't seem to matter back then, so dont think it will matter too much now
