If this is as flat as it was last week, it would be a good opportunity to play Turner. Firstly, to get a lot of overs under his belt (and hopefully get into rhythm). Secondly, because his pace could mean he's one of the few bowlers capable of taking wickets.

What has Orr got to do to get a game. What has Stoneman or Middleton got to do to get dropped. Pathetic management.
 
Another shocking batting display from the top order. What was it Einstein said - oh yeah the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. It's frankly ludicrous that Orr has been left out and I do think Birrell needs to be fired at this point.

Yeah, it's looking like minimal batting points again with only 4 so far this season, a very poor return.
 
Ordinarily I'd be thinking that Fletcha has just one more innings left to make a score, before he gets dropped. However, the fact that there's only one game left after this until the break for the t20s, might mean that we stick with him next week even if he fails in the second innings.

I am though really struggling with us this season so far. Not as bad as Saints, but still not great.

I'm looking forward to the T20 TBH. Really looking forward to seeing Pretorious and Brevis in action, plus Vincey again of course.

First innings scores at Edgbaston this season: 528, 454, 93, 367, 665-5, 504.

I'm not sure what happened with that 93 (maybe difficult conditions because day one was basically washed out). But other than that, it's been runs galore. Until we turn up, with our paltry four batting points.
