I thought that there was a chance the Salter experiment could work because he’s a stubborn lower order batsman (I’ve always thought the same about James Harris as a potential top order batsman, but the time for that has probably gone now), it hasn’t though. With this being our last four day game for a while, you’d like to think that Byrom will be available to open with Lloyd (providing the injury which stopped him bowling yesterday is nothing major) when fixtures resume,
