Exactly the SECONDS.
He has not played first team cricket for a while, Rippon has been. Not saying Rippon is that good, but this selection seems a bit odd.
But he has been behind Hatchett and Khan in the pecking order for 4 day cricket. Seems odd that Hatchett is not playing, if Anyon is injured.
Oh and this a top of the table game.
Has Beer played this season? Rippon has been the one day spinner.
Also Liddle has not played 4 day cricket for a while, would have thought that Hatchett was the next bowler in.
He is the fifth leading wicket taker in the 1st Division, would seem odd to drop him.
Granted he does tend to ball a 4 ball every over, but he gets wickets.
Probably would drop Brown and move Wright to 7. Wright can bowl a few overs. Brown did get some runs in the last game, but got out poorly in the first innings and neither him nor Gower have some consistency so far this season.
