Not a bad team even without CJ. Pity we can't say the same about the 4 day side...

Yes we look strong in this format. Let hope we go one further this year and win it outright. All this without Rashid as well.

I feel I'm probably going to get castigated for this opinion, but...

Chris Jordan isn't really THAT good.

His famed death bowling is hit and miss, and he never, ever scores any runs

He's only played two of the six games to date (because he was with England), and in one of those two he was our most expensive bowler (3 overs for 28)

The Kent batsman on Saturday, could not play his death bowling. It was like they were playing Mills and just wafting at air. But chance for another newbie hopefully to take his crown.
