No problem for Tattersall I’m sure...
The Madswagon rolls relentlessly on... I miss SDHM.

James Vince is currently the Division 1 leading run scorer.

Another damning indictment on the quality of the County Championship...

Could we field a prospectively solid middle order using only wicketkeeper batsmen for England? Bairstow, Foakes, Buttler, Pope......hoping Tattersall.....at 4-5-6-7-8

Steven Davies is well out of the conversation now despite averaging 40. He opens too, so you could get 1-7 as keepers with a bit of jiggling.
Ben Cox might be my favourite gloveman of the lot and his batting is a lot better than you'd think.
By all accounts these pink Kookaburras are total shite (from the Beeb)
The top tier are using a pink Kookaburra, while a pink Duke ball (historically used in first class cricket in England) is being used in the second tier.
Only two wickets have fallen in the two Division One games while 17 wickets have fallen in Division Two.
Somerset have just got theirs changed, by all accounts on about the seventh ask.

1. S Davies 2. A Davies 3. Pope 4. Bairstow 5. Buttler 6. Foakes 7. Billings/Cox/Brown/Keeper of your choice 8-11 some bowlers I guess
Didn't even have to bend the truth and use Burns as a wicket keeper

I’m now outside, and can confirm that anybody fielding in this heat deserves to be on the NY honours list.

Also you’d have to say that Billings has stuffed it for the time being.

Got to add Alsop to that wicketkeepers XI, second best bowling average in division one this season! (12).

Tough conditions out there I'll say. The ball that bowled Holden must have swung about four feet. Malan got one that was almost unplayable too. The perils of batting under lights. Stewart did bowl fantastically tbf.

We've been given 5 penalty runs for Stoneman's reaction to getting out and an incident in the field.....bizarre

I see that Burns has scored another fifty.
Paging Mr. Smith...
