Robbie White is an 18k wicket keeper on fantasy cricket. He's playing the first game of the season without the gloves. My first balls up of the year!

BBC Commentator just said that Amla will bat at 5 for Hampshire. That's an interesting decision.

With Amla and Rossouw at 5 and 6 I guess the thinking is to hope they can capitalise on an older ball. Pile on the runs in a Michael Clarke kinda way

So what you’re saying is that Cricinfo doesn’t even updates with wickets any more.

Tbf in April I think there's a pretty solid shout for sticking some obdurate but not your best batsmen up top. I'd consider asking Steve Patterson to go in as a new ball watchman for example.

I admit I've given up on the Cricinfo blog already. Just got the pair of scorecards open.

"There's no Stevie Eskinazi in the Middlesex line-up by the way, the batsman having withdrawn from the squad through illness."
Well, at least he wasn't dropped.

I'm assuming Vince at 3 is him as captain pulling rank? I guess Bailey sending Ervine in ahead of him really stung.
