    Second wicket. Thank you Joe Root and Nelson. I hope we get Clarke early.

    Yes!...'Nelson' strikes just before tea, a bonus wicket from Root....Now we need to get Clarke early after tea.

    Root might not be an allrounder, but he's also more than just a part-timer. Having him in the side does increase our bowling options.

    Indeed, don't think he'll ever be a factor on non-spinning wickets as he doesn't have the skill or variation, but if he can be a legitimate threat on a turning pitch it will help us hugely with the two spinner conundrum we have fallen victim of in past years.

    Yeah, Root is in that Bopara-type "useful" bracket. A very good option for a team with only 4 main bowlers.

    3 down now. If we can get Clarke soon I'd feel a lot more comfortable.
