    Good job today. However, we should have batted like this in the first innings, got some batting points and taken all jeopardy out of the game way earlier. The first innings was absolutely woeful and needs addressing.

    With our run-rate, we might still have gained none.

    Have you ever spent 4 sessions or there abouts in the field?

    I'm not a professional cricketer. They are and were awful.

    I believe Barker will be available for the rest of the CC games. Of course not having played a competitive match for so long he may not come straight back in.

    Shubman Gill really is a magnificent batsman.

    Okay, so they got away with it last time but this time, it does look a stupid decision to chase in these conditions!

    Now I've stuck my neck out we can all expect a Stokes masterclass <laugh>
