That's what I thought too. It should be young up and coming players.

It's either another poor decision to bowl or poor bowling. I can't believe someone with Colly's experience would continuously make the wrong calls so I suspect it must be the latter.
We seem to always have a dreadful first innings - either get bowled out for under 100 or concede 400 plus!

It's called arrogance. High time Colly went. Can't bat, can't bowl, won't capt.

Typical! Steel finally breaks the partnership. Wheels off now.
They might not make 600.

And no prizes for guessing who Salt scored his previous career best against!

Martin Emmerson said the delivery from Steel that dismissed Luke Wright was so bad that the bowler looked embarrassed to have taken a wicket with it!

3rd wicket for Salisbury and apparently earlier one of his deliveries hit the stumps with some force but the bails didn't come off.
Rushy seems to blow completely hot or cold this year - sometimes looks lethal and in prime form and other times seems totally innocuous.

According to cricinfo it was cloudy at the start and the batsmen had some lucky escapes early on but the bowling was poor.
Bad news too - Haines may have been chosen because he is a bowling option so if he gets the chance he'll probably turn in a brilliant bowling display!
