Chawla will probably be a decent signing. It's such a downgrade on Rehman though. Sucks.
With that being said, he looked pretty average against Warwickshire and Surrey in the T20, so I don't really know what to think.
I think it's pretty clear what the situation is. Somerest want him to stay, Jos wants to stay providing he can keep, but Somerset don't want to compromise their performances and think Craig is a better keeper. I guess they just think every time they let him keep is a move that brings a contract renewal closer. Hope they're right.
Yeah, his ton against South Africa last year proves he can actually do it against world class bowlers on his day. The Taunton argument is a silly one in this case anyway. How regularly do we see bowler friendly pitches in international limited overs cricket, particularly England and Australia, where England play their next 14 limited over games? It's probably more useful to be able to smash pies on a road than have a rock solid technique for a green top.

Machan has some nice List A career stats. Ed Joyce having an amazing year as well.

150 will win this game for pakistan. Loads of unven bounce from this wicket.
Its the same stinking pitch as last night isn't it?

Yes poor stuff really from debyshire.
Although Pakistan may be making a bit of a meal of this, the pitch is a joke. Young guys, learning the game are playing on a pitch that just turned square in the 12th over.
Fisher looks a serious prospect though. 78 MPH at the age of 15, with the ability to bowl cutters already?

Both opening bowlers looked decent as well. Shaw finding a good day to be on tv given his previous average form in the series.
Don't know how many spinners Pakistan have but you'd guess it's gonna be a nightmare facing them for our guys in the second innings. They'll probably have a couple of tasty pacers as well.

Love the pakistani's in the field. Terrible fielding but plenty of chat and laughing at the english batting.
