Ah well, Day 3 starts shortly and should see this game decided;
The GOOD THING about this series is that Trott must surely now retire from Test Cricket.
I'm frankly struggling to think of any other positives, I have a feeling that both the Kiwis and Convicts will stuff us all Summer...
Seeing as he is playing I presume he is all right. As posted earlier I would rather have seen Lyth (and possibly Plunkett) given a go but the Management obviously buy into this 'don't change a winning team' stuff.
Looks like the same team minus Stokes, Lyth in the squad would be a better option than Trott as an opener, you could keep Trott for his devastating off-cutters I suppose....
Just hope the wicket is better than the two Puddings so far.
