NO !!! Do not want to go and play Worcester and Warwickshire with Ali and Woakes available and we haven't got Woody !!

Is Wood available for the Derbyshire and Essex games?
Jack Torrance
Striker
Think he will be in the bubble when the Essex game starts. Might be available for Derbyshire but have a feeling England will want him rested after playing 2 games in a row.

Foakes as the only WK will upset a few
Bracey keeps and bats at 4......
The Breen Machine
Striker
Robinson and Overton are horses for courses but the former certainly deserves a chance. I suppose with Archer and Woakes to return, it's unlikely we'll be seeing either come the winter.
Bracey, from the small bits I have seen, looks a good talent but I'm not sure we need to be blooding another keeper-batsman at the moment.

They reckon Bracey will keep wicket, Billings as cover.

Fucks sake. The poor fucker finally gets a chance after his shocking treatment by England and this happens. Gutted
To be fair, we don’t want a keeper that has that bad a sense of balance
keeping is all about balance. And stuff

Striker
On a related note, the Edgbaston test has been given special dispensation to be a Covid pilot event and capacity set at 18k instead of about 5k-6k. I might still get there for the Saturday yet.

Good luck mate - enjoy it if you do
Paddy O'Dors
Striker
I'm in the Hollies like. Hope I can find my way back to New Street cos I'll be canny spangled.
What do we reckon the team will be then? Do I count 4 openers in the squad? Seems a bit excessive - assuming they'll put Crawley at 3 and it's 2 from 3 for the openers slot

Craig Overton
The talk is that Robinson will play, probably at the expense of Wood
Don't know anything about the lad. Is he fast? Swinger? Seamer? Typical county plodder that we picked test after test in the 90s?
Don’t really know. Takes his first class wickets at 21 mind
