Just looked at DB's CC Bowling averages thos season - 166.4 overs, 7 for 607, averaging 86.71! Awful?! How can Management justify constantly picking him. Of course, he remains a key white ball bowler, but First Class?

They've given just one game to Jake Lintott (who tops the bowling averages at 6.00 - 3 for 18, off 6.5). I know he's not a long term answer, but surely he should be given a chance - and certainly in these last 2 games?

He's only played six games out of 12; but I do think his credentials as a red ball bowler are extremely dubious.

If Bethell and Mousley are going to be missing we will be very short of anyone who can turn the ball. An emergency call to Lintott might be in order.
(Tongue in cheek) or we could ask Somerset if we could borrow Shoaib Bashir since he seems to be their third choice spinner now!
