So Yorkshire get Bairstow back, Kent get Billings back, Somerset get Banton back (etc, etc), but we don't get Vince or Dawson?

Yep, seems fair to me.

As if by magic, they are no longer "unavailable following the recent ODI series vs Ireland". However, Vince will still miss out due to personal reasons.

Hopefully it's nothing serious, and it's just him wanting to take a little break to clear his head (I did say that it felt like this past week was his last chance to make it as an international cricketer - and maybe he felt that too).
 
Pakistan slip to 63-4. England could be back in the game with another wicket or two.

It’s the hope that kills.
 
If we're as clinical against the tail again, we could be starting our chase immediately tomorrow morning.
 
Good fightback. Might be too late, but we'll see.

I'm still largely bemused by what Bess brings to the side, but hey ho.
 
Great start. Middlesex's batting line-up is vastly superior to Sussex's, but even so, they are a batter light - so these early wickets are very important.
