Manenti isnt that much worse than Boyce in all honesty, don't think it changes a great deal.

Depends on where Nielsen bats for mine. If they select him to bat at 8, then Short’s bowling stocks increase considerably.

Lynn
Short
Weatherald
Hose
CDG
Kelly
Rashid
Nielsen
Thornton
Siddle
Conway/Agar

Means Short and CDG share 4 overs a game. Will not be surprised if this happens.

Is the story of Jay and the creation of the site somewhere on here? Would love to read about it.

I had a look for you, as I knew there used to be something available.
Unfortunately, the site has had a few hosting migrations along the way, and some of the older stuff didn't carry over to the new host.

Bayliss doesnt exactly convince me theyll back in Farooqi in that article, sounds like theyve signed whatever left arm paceman they could get as soon as Willey pulled out in all honesty.

On one hand I completely agree with that, on the other hand it makes me confident, if he fits a hole in their team then he’s not just another pace bowler.

Would have liked them to actually report on their practice match, theyve released absolutely nothing, probably doesnt tell much with Sams not playing anyway I guess.

They had an open training session today as part of their supporters day. Yet, there has been no mention from anyone if he trained and in what capacity.

Always a chance up here. You have to get your wins before christmas, because you don't know how many games you'll actually get to play after.

Looks like 1-5mm, so not much, but at a game ruining time. Honestly, they should have played a day game to maximise the chances of a full game. Though spectator wise that wouldn't have been much fun.

NE predicted wind direction is odd, and normally means a low pressure system above. This does bring big rain. Though that is predicted for Friday.

Obviously, something to keep in mind if you are looking for a Billings or Renshaw to come in for poor DGR player, especially at WK.
