Would never be able to field that side obviously, but it is rather mouthwatering.

Nice to see Javid make a ton, felt rather sorry for him when he was stuck down at 8 earlier in the season and hardly bowling.

Not to put a dampener on it but if it was first class I'd rather Ambrose than Buttler.
Yeah but if Buttler goes somewhere, he is having the gloves for all 3 formats. Rightly or wrongly. Ambrose could play as a specialist bat easily as well. As I said Trott/Bell not in the team so sub them for Ambrose and probably Troughton.

Buttler wouldn't go to the Bears though would he? Surely he'd be most wanted by a side that doesn't have a strong wicketkeeper?

List A/T20 we have one of the weakest though. McKay is a solid gloveman but a tailender. As long as they promise him FC cricket I think it makes sense, but then I am somewhat bias.

Wonder if he has a release clause if they are relegated?

He did say a few weeks ago he needs to play Division 1 to stay in the selectors thoughts. Or maybe they have told him he is out of the picture and he is staying at Somerset.
Doubt it. Would be pretty stupid to sign a contract for 3 years which could be nullified in a month. He'd surely just wait till the season ended otherwise.

So can Amla help Surrey to stay up? Good chance this game with Durham under strength with no Onions or Stokes. Usman Arshad making his debut for Durham today. An allrounder who has been very good for the 2nds all season.

8 overs, 2 maidens, 9-2. #TremlettWatch

Bairstow bagged 62 for Yorkshire; and Monty's new side Essex getting a pasting at home to Northants. Northants closed on 531, with Monty taking 2-133 from 54 overs. In their innings, Essex are currently 187/5. Gambhir got 31 before being bowled by Crook, and were 103-5 before Foster and RTD began the rescue.

Javid 133* at lunch. Good maiden ton.

Carberry also 145* after 40 overs against the Deshi A. Taylor 69* with him. 254/1 off 40.4

Don't see the point at all in these games. What are we learning about our players?

Easy going again for the Loins. 255/2 after 41 with Carberry just out for 146, Taylor on 71* and Buttler just come to the crease
