On paper, Fuller-Howell-Dawson is a solid set of all-rounders. But they're all averaging less than 20 with the bat, and that's a huge issue. You can't have a number 6 averaging just 13.

They're going to need to put that right tonight.
 
But we live in hope, maybe this will be Brevis’ moment? Plenty of time to bat properly for him tonight
 
The important thing is not to aim too high. 140 should be the aim - that will be a decent total on this wicket.
 
Why Fuller...

There's ages to go in this innings. Dawson clearly should be the one walking out.
 
Not sure we're getting anywhere near 140-145.

Maybe the pitch is a whole lot better than my eyes think. Because every batter has played like we need 200. But it does look a bad pitch.
