Warm but windy Tues/Wed. with spells of rain on Thurs/Fri. Surely we have to insert with a 10.30 autumnal start. Pringle or Trevaskis for Patel and I'd play McCarthy as 3rd seamer even though he's leaving. Any other changes?

I think Martin Emmerson said McCarthy picked up an injury ahead of the start last week so he might not be fit.
I'd have another look at Davies and possibly another second teamer but have a feeling they won't.
If ( by some miracle ) Wood is fit I'd have him in - 2 games in 2 weeks would test him.

Central and white ball contracts announcement is imminent so Wood's future will become clearer. No mention of him at the forum?
