Jordan out to Amjad for seven...no surprises there!

Did Jordan really open the batting?

he scored big runs in the warm up games, and RHB wanted to drop down to 5.

Do you have a link to any of these amazing warm up games?

Or are they the stuff that legends are made of?

He got a fifty against Leeds/Bradford... but that is all that I can find...

They got beat. Game was heading for a draw until George Dockrell took 6 quick wickets in their 2nd innings. Somerset just needed 75 to win, lost 4 wickets but won easily in the end.

Neil Dexter has 'temporarily' stood down as Middlesex captain because of poor batting form, Chris Rogers is taking over.

he will still be captain in limited overs cricket, and door is being kept open for him to return as captain of the 4 day side, if he wishes too

Middlesex knew of his plans and didnt intervene, doesnt really have a leg to stand on.

One wonders if a one way flight from London Heathrow to Manchester Airport was an option, then Morgan could return home on the team bus.

Just one of those things really, Morgan very unfortunate for him to travel 7hrs from London to Manchester. I wonder if he'll be getting compensation and free rail travel?

England dropping KP is probably the best thing to happen to surrey....

Middlesex have seen the last of Straussy...

"Discarded England batsman Kevin Pietersen has signed a new contract to play for Surrey this season. Pietersen will play in the revamped Twenty20 Blast, but could also appear in first-class and 50-over games depending on other commitments."
