Still reflecting on Essex game. So disappointing. Big fan of Carlson - and he is relatively inexperienced as captain - so not going to be too critical, but a really poor decision to take both crane and marnus out of attack. Game was there to win. Would have expected influence from northeast, Ingram etc. crucial we win next game.

Totally agree. Hard to second guess the reasons, but it appeared to me that bringing on Ingram was done with with an eye to filling the 20 overs. But that just shouldn't have been an issue, they were 8 down and we just needed to go in for the kill.
It was a decision that should have taken milliseconds if even thought about at all. 2 lads have reduced them to 8 down in a flash, just keep the ball with them .

It's as if he didn't see what head did in the IPL. He's probably the last batsman in the world you want to be taking liberties with at this moment in time

It was pretty dozy captaincy putting your most inexperienced bowler on at the end with such small leg side boundaries and a helping wind - another example of too clever by half captaincy.
Watching India v Pakistan in front of what must be the biggest crowd ever to watch a cricket match in America - not much of a claim I suppose, but there doesn’t seem to be too many empty seats in the stadium.
India 96-7 in the fifteenth over on what looks a dodgy wicket.
Interesting to see Sussex top. They had two big wins at the weekend, including one at the Oval. At the other end of the table, Middlesex are off the mark after chasing down 173 at Canterbury.
We've got two games this week. Hampshire at home on Thursday followed by a trip to Taunton on Sunday. Somerset made 241-5 there yesterday off a Hampshire attack of Neser, Wood, Turner, Dawson, Howell and Fuller which is slightly concerning. Is the transfer window still open?
