we will have to improve by miles to give Derby a game on tuesday.
agree with Brendy , once our top three have gone its almost as though we are into the tail , personally I think that Lewis McManus is a bigger miss than Rilee , nothing to do with their ability its just that we semm to bat deeper with him in the team.
did anyone else notice that James Vince appeared to be ready to run for Chris Wood , he seemed to be struggling in the heroic last wicket stand ?
if he is injured again surely that gives Brad Wheal a chance plus an other for Jake Lintott , who I mean no disrespect , but looked like a club cricketer who had won the chance to play in a county game , surely Ian Holland would have been a better bet.

Mind you our first T20 triumph I seem to remember came off the back of an indifferent group stage.
Just don't think we've got the batting power to prevail this year and that was with Roussoux in the side.

Wood has also made it, so that gives us four options I think:
Vince, Dickinson, Carberry, Bailey, Ervine, Dawson, Afridi, Berg, Abbott, Wood, Crane
Vince, Dickinson, Carberry, Adams, Bailey, Dawson, Afridi, Berg, Abbott, Wood, Crane
Vince, Dickinson, Carberry, Adams, Bailey, Ervine, Dawson, Afridi, Abbott, Wood, Crane
Vince, Dickinson, Carberry, Adams, Bailey, Ervine, Dawson, Afridi, Berg, Abbott, Crane
I suspect we'll go with option one. But I personally would prefer two or three.
