Well this weather is a real arse and no mistake. I was really looking forward to witnessing our superb new opening partnership of Ablett and Hudson, pitting the handsome rogue of yesteryear with the tearaway Jedi of the future! That's opening BATTING partnership obviously, no-one in their right minds would entrust the new ball to Garvey Hudson when we have a perfectly decent new ball attack of Brooks and Deegan!



Place your bets now on whether I'm joking ... ;-)
