Wow Early Summer gives us hopes of a proper 4-day game. Sheffield is out of the Squad which is:

Ben Brown (c/wk)
Will Beer
Michael Burgess
Harry Finch
Ollie Robinson
Phil Salt
Ishant Sharma
Stiaan van Zyl
Stuart Whittingham
David Wiese
Luke Wells
Luke Wright

Will the excitement of our first game performance continue or will we be limping back home after a humiliating defeat to the whipping boys of CC cricket.

Still no Garton or Briggs.

Fortunately. it's been too wet to find ourselves on a bunsen but I hope Briggs is back soon as I can't see Beer bowling teams out

Unfortunately neither does Briggs! Excellent one-day bowler though. Hopefully this season he kicks on in the 4 day stuff.

Hoping for a stream like last weeks game!

Carberry (capt), Abbas, Ackermann, Chappell, Cosgrove, Dexter, Eckersley, Griffiths, Hill, Horton, Javid, Klein, Parkinson, Raine.

Blimey, looked them up and Beer actually has a better FC average than Briggs - that shocked me. (he has played in a lot of uni games though, that's probably the reason).

There were moments last season where Briggs looked like a decent FC spinner though, I'm hoping he can kick on a bit

Just noticed the video link. That’s my fault for skimming the thread! Goodbye productivity, hello to 3 runs per over.

Sake.

Just clicked the link to watch Salt nick off.

I think I’ll go and do something more productive.
