Mark Davies

I have just read the article on the BBC website on this seasons best players in the county. Mark Davies who plays for Durham has took he took 47 wickets at just 15.55 apiece this term. His overall figures in first class cricket after 41 matches, 146 wickets at a amazing average of 21.91 and economy rate that would please any young bowler of 2.88.

This figures would suggest he should be in the England squad but he isn't. I am not a keen follower of the county cricket, so can somebody help me by telling me about his performances. The reasons i beleive he isn't in the International stage is because he bowls meduim pacers which wouldn't be enough for him to take wickets agianst world class batsmen. So would do you think of this player, is he a prospect for England at test level in the future or is he a county basher?
