So in the end, the Smith experiment was a bit of a waste. Few more bums on seats at Hove but playing him over McAndrew cost us some wins.

I noticed that one of Middlesex 2nds' opening bowlers was Joshua De Caires, who is Mike Atherton's son.

Also, as far as I know he is a batsman rather than any sort of bowler, although he apparently bowls off-spin.
Presumably not very well.

Bopara had a fairly useful warmup then

Also, Farbrace has said that with Pujara away for a few weeks they hope to announce an overseas bowler in the next few days.

Surrey (A) Sunday - anyone know the kick off time? Depending on which clubs fixture list or web site you choose it’s either 14:30 or 18:00
Strange one.
Ollie Carter can score quickly while Orr and Alsop can both keep.
Would have been better to have signed an out and out batter. That is The most obvious weakness in T20 side.

If he can bat well enough he might get in the team on that alone

For the T20's? Don't we already have two overseas?
Possibly . Although he was never that great shakes before, and Warwicks clearly don’t think he’s that great. Maybe he’s cover?
Im not expecting much from the t20 campaign. We don’t have high-quality enough players to make much of a dent.
Red ball has been encouraging though.

Sorry, he was talking about the Championship games he misses - not the T20

In his limited T20 games last season he was struggling to get it off the square.
Pretty sure Harrison Ward can keep wicket too.

Interesting, I presume taht
Not missing as such but I'd play Haines in that top order instead of Ward perhaps. Batting looks way short on power
I thought the bowling was the more obvious weak link !
TBF the T20 line ups for most of the counties look weaker.
The competition has been downgraded by the 100 effect.
As reflected in poor ticket sales (For the blast).
Obviously , the Sooner the 100 dies it’s natural death the better. The question is, will they let it die?

Sussex 55-2 after 4.5 overs, watched Siddle play for the Aussies 2011, obviously not the bowler he was.

First look at Khan. Need him and Bopara to stick around a while now.
