Start the car - Richo out now and he was bowled so can't blame the umpire! 27/3.
Colly unbelievable schoolboy error. Keeps his bat aloft after missing a lavish drive and well out his crease. By the time he turns and grounds his bat stumps are down. Pringle was trying to glance a full delivery.
No signs that Potts was injured but I'd rest him for Rushy. Clearly Latham has to open. Colly clearly struggling with an ankle injury when bowling
This ankle injury is a big problem, if it's affecting his bowling it must also hamper his batting. Lots of batters struggling early season but if he doesn't make a big score soon it might be time to worry if this is a season too far for him - if anyone can turn it around he can but there must be some doubts creeping in.
Latham not opening seems ridiculous, he's a world class batsman playing in a poor side so if he comes in at 4 or 5 the situation is almost certainly going to be a hopeless one.
Will Smith is more than useful as a one day bowler so I think I'd leave out Harding and play Steel as the extra batsman.
