    Very solid (if unspectacular) PP

    We could do with just putting our foot down a little now.

    We're doing the exact opposite!

    Fletcha seems to think it's a four day game. And now dropped.

    Trent Bridge is traditionally a high scoring pitch, and we're going in the wrong direction.

    Worth a try. Fletcha is overdue dropping tbh.

    Given the weather, it is odd that we didn't send Albert in at no.3. If we end up with a reduced chase, DLS will hurt us for these slow overs.

    Yep, if you want quick runs, the answer is never Fletcha.

    Probably the best thing for us is that the rest of the day is washed out, and we can just continue from this point with a full game tomorrow. If we end up squeezing in a 20 over Worcs run chase later, I'd expect them to win it easily.

    Poor effort.

    We'd have been bettered served playing a sixth bowler than selecting Brown as a specialist keeper. I don't get why he didn't come ahead of Currie and Neal.

    PP was fine. But just a nothing innings after that, aside from Orr.

    188 from 27 overs.

    So 18 overs lost, with a reduction of 63 runs. I would still heavily fancy Worcs, but maybe our chances are a little better now?
