Rain?

First game this afternoon.

Has signed for the next 2 CC games.

Feels like ages since we had a CC game at Edgbaston.

Weather might be iffy.

Lancashire a decent team, probably better than their league position would suggest.

Back to red ball

Might we rest a couple of guys tomorrow?

Is that him playing for Gloucestershire 2's?

We go again.

No Woakes.

CR Woakes is back

We go again.

1 or 2 major selection headaches coming up you'd think...

Moeen?

What we think?

Hassan be fit?
Maxwell be available?
Woakes still be about?
Stirling still be with us?

Are we perhaps at a huge advantage here having been in 'T20 mode' a week longer than Leicestershire with the comp having only just started?

T20 time.

How do people see us lining up this year?

We've had some doings down at Southampton is recent times...

Any changes?

Poor weather forecast again?

12 man squad. The XI who beat Kent plus D. Briggs.

Poor weather forecast?

Bethell, stress fracture.

Has left his position as academy coach to take up the role of assistant coach at Worcestershire. This is a blow as I know he was well thought of at Edgbaston.

Has signed for the RLODC

Joins on loan

Tough one this...

Bit of a big game this all of a sudden, top half of the group has closed right up, Derby won again, Leicester might be sniffing an outside chance after beating Notts (the Yardstick apparently). If we lose tomorrow we will be under pressure.

Really great comp the Blast is. Don't let the smug stattos on social media tell you otherwise.

Will Rhodes added to the squad for tomorrow.
