At first I thought the theory was to replace the Liam Plunkett role, at this point who knows.
Aggressive start from England

You could say that, 52-0, 3 overs.
I’m watching without commentary. What is going on with that weird boundary?
Salt caught off a no ball from a spinner, gritted teeth for the Irish skipper
This is all because I flagged salt off 2 days before he smashed a century

Nice to see Surrey losing against Notts, who now need a maximum of 11 points in their final match to pop Surrey for the Championship.
Not suprisingly, Lancashire's match was drawn. An appalling season, didnt win a single home match.

Routine win for England by six wickets with nearly three overs to spare. Banton, and especially Cox, played well.
