Woakes has been unlucky but he needs to keep control.

Woakes has definitely put on a yard of pace. Good over there.

Woakes can't be dropping short.

In fact he's bowling a good line, but he's got to work on his length. This is a great batting pitch now.

Watson 50 looking dangerous, hopefully he'll do his normal thing.

Watson will go after the spinners - interesting passage of play now
Bit of a poor mans peiterson when in this form.

Kerrigan and woakes both have looked well short at this level so far - poor bowling. Maybe give root a go.

Watson is hammering the bowling at the moment, we need control.

This Is a good day for monty !
Team selection backfiring - both debutants look way out of their depth .

This is the issue with the oft repeated call to give x young player and y young player a go, it's quite possible they'll get taken to the cleaners. 

I'm as guilty of it as anyone, but it does illustrate that the squad depth isn't as deep as we might have thought.
