Didn't enter because he wanted to fight for test place but mysteriously absent from Notts line up.

I think he was given the option to play or rest and opted for the latter.

Wimp!-Wor Ben doesn't do rest.

Yep, and he's an allrounder in all 3 formats.

14/5..... maybe a suggestion that playing after snowfall is a little unfair in comparison to recent pitch conditions before it?

Not sure there is much case material to exhibit how the ball is affected by snow, but certainly evidence would show its decent for bowlers.

At least double figures were reached before losing wicket 5.

I see another young talented player loses out to a overseas import, this time at Worcestershire. Henry arrives and 23 year old Charlie Morris who took 90 wickets in Div one last year is relegated to second team cricket.

Disciplinary problems? Or maybe not 100% fit? It seems bizarre to dump a lad who did so well for them
