Had the pleasure of witnessing an epic game at the Oval today. Surrey reserves were struggling against Warwickshire,needing 10 an over with 5 wickets left.Ended in a breathless tied game.
 
Lancs, or what’s left of Lancs squad are channelling their inner 1975 today.

175/4 off 45 overs vs Derbyshire.
To be fair they had a bad start 67-4 after 20 overs, but a brilliant unbeaten stand between Steven Croft and Rob Jones took them to 221-4, and they bowled Derbyshire out for 182, so another very good win.
 
Bairstow the latest to pull out of the Hundred due to workload (tests vs SA in two weeks).
With Stokes also withdrawing, maybe this is the watershed year on playing too much. I just don't trust the ECB to do anything sane, but how much was due to the delayed India test which they then tacked some 1 day stuff on.

Welsh Fire might be a bit irritated to find out just before it starts - I wonder who they'll find at short notice to fill in as one of their top players.
Whilst I applaud Bairstow with his stance it was very last minute.
Welsh Fire have already got by far the worst squad.
