Looks like Oli Stone has broken down again, as he was unable to complete his second over.

Depending on the nature of the problem, that could be areal tragedy for him.

Yep. I'm there today. He looked bu**ered again. As said elsewhere, a real tragedy - he can't seem to complete any game these days. Amazing, that he must go through Nets and Practices without a problem, but whenever he bowls competitively, he breaks down - presumably cos he's fired up for it ?

On the other hand, Norwell is back bowling and has looked OK, but I think Olly's predicament (in the 3rd over), made him slow down a bit in pace from his first over. He is getting hit a bit now (5 an over), particularly by Zen Malik. Malik looks class. A Staffordshire lad, at Malvern College, he has played a bit for the Pears 2nd's - shame, I think our Staffs connections might have brought him to us.

The Brookes Brothers are bowling fairly well today. Henry was OK (1 wicket for 26 off 8 overs), but Ethan looked very good (2 for 17 off 6 so far). George Garrett has been really caned (6 an over!). Che Simmons looks quality - very fast and accurate (4 overs, 1 for 13).

Our team:-
Amir Khan, Shaikh, Ethan B, Hose, Bethell, Maddy (Keeper), Lintott, Stone (Captain), Henry B, Norwell, Simmons and Garrett.

I think Zen Malik has played at Barnt Green, and is probably on a cricket scholarship at Malvern, which is the "official" school for Worcestershire's academy players.
