Interesting addition. Does this mean Eck is injured, or being rested for the T20’s?

Hopefully it doesn’t point to a bigger issue with Bedingham’s injury given he kept wicket at times in the Blast last year.

aye no idea. trying to find something out about him but cricinfo is not loading (i guess thousands of durham fans are doing the same thing right now)

i have found out that the other ollie robinson however was born in kent, played for their youth set up before moving to yorkshire where he had his contract terminated for numerous cases of unprofessionalism.

wiki gives us this; (23 year old)

Fairly respectable FC* stats for a keeper like.

*I know we haven’t signed him for that mind (yet).
 
Good luck to him I can't say I have seen anything if him but noticed his name in the Kent scorecard.
I wonder if they don't fancy Ned in this form of the game especially standing up to the wicket. Also his batting has been poor this season in the championship.
 
Very highly thought of, he opens the batting for them in white ball stuff

seems odd to let him go if he's a young lad, highly thought of and opens for him, you'd think they'd find a space for him even with billings keeping wicket.
Ned has been playing with a broken finger sustained 1st game of the season

didn't realise that tbh. i think he's been a good player for us overall, thought he was fairly harshly done by dropped at times in whiteball. his poor form this year had been a concern but if he's playing injured that might come into it. hopefully a bit of time away then to rest and heal and he can come back firing in red ball when it comes back. although it seems a bit late for any real progress this season
