Big BEURAN is on a hat-trick.

Did anybody before the start of this competition even dream of saying that could be a possibility. Imagine if they'd of just said he wasn't fit earlier on

Amidst all the bad decisions, the emergence of Louis Kimber in all formats has been a huge positive this season. Well played him!

Agreed he's been superb. I think when it comes to our batting we're getting somewhere player wise.

 

Azad (despite being dropped bizarrely) will do a job in red ball.

Welch had a few false starts now in the last few games but was very good in the Blast and got us up and running with that ton.

Steel generally looked competent before he got dropped again...

Patel has looked the part at points and has talent though does need to start producing big scores I think.

Kimber going from strength to strength.

Ackermann was superb in the Blast and has put up some decent runs in the CC.

Swindells belatedly finding some form now after an abysmal run admittedly.

Hill still looks our best bat when in full flow though hasn't clicked when facing the white ball this season.

 

That's 8 to build around in all formats with Mulder adding real quality too. We need to stop the musical chairs in the batting order though, the one day side has been more settled and seems to be benefiting.

I’d like to get excited, but one can only assume whoever makes the Semis/Final will be back to full strength after having to play their second string throughout?

Will be nice to have Rehan and Ben Mike back at Trent bridge in that case

I’d still like to see Scott Steele in there as he gives us a spin option as well 

Well Rishi P is averaging 9, and Lewis 10 after 5 innings each. I like Rishi, think he's a player with a load of potential, but he's not performing. Lewis is clearly a good player, and an remerging skipper, but there is a case for Steele replacing Rishi for the final three group games.

Finally looking like a balanced side. 

 

Knowing our luck SA will call up Hendricks as cover for Oliver for the test series.

Fingers crossed they didn't know he was half crocked like we didn't and swerve him and his 100+ average

Be interesting to see how he goes in the final red ball games.

Hendricks and Mulder have shown true class in this format.

 

Henricks is far too quick for some batsman.

 

We have a decent mix, Steel may play a part but as someone said on Twitter, that’s 8 from 9 if you add up the back end of the blast.

Might need 3 as only the group winners go straight to the SF 

Oh fair enough, I looked at it quickly and thought the top two just went straight through. Hopefully we can progress either way.
