In the women’s game the Southern Vipers are currently all over the Surrey Stars at Guildford. Decent view from our window...

Other than us, Surrey (or Western Storm) are the best side in the competition, so that really is a good start.
 
Steyn has been left out of SA's limited overs squad. So assuming that remains the case - and the Cricket SA do not insist on him resting - he'll be available to take straight over from Munro.

Munro has three more matches for us (all away) before leaving to play in the Caribbean PL. Thus Steyn will feature in six, plus any KO matches should we qualify.
 
Adil Rashid included in the squad for the first Test against India despite not having played any first-class cricket since last September. Yorkshire aren’t happy.
 
Now that is disappointing. Northeast is certainly sensible enough to know better there. We can just bat Agar out if we want.

So, so stupid from Rilee. But ultimately this is Sam's fault in my book. He should still be out there at the moment, just knocking the ball about and taking us home. If wickets fall at the other end, so be it.

Now we have them falling at both ends.
 
Painful just how awful McManus is against anything other than spin. Game after game.
