Woakes in England squad but Mahmood left out. (Buttler also left out but no doubt not available for Lancs)

Rumour has it that Parky will be out of isolation

Lancashire Squad:
Dane Vilas (captain), Tom Bailey, George Balderson, Jack Blatherwick, Josh Bohannon, Steven Croft, Liam Hurt, Rob Jones, Danny Lamb, George Lavelle, Liam Livingstone, Saqib Mahmood, Matt Parkinson, Luke Wells
uploaded after 9pm during Vigil.
No Davies 3 to miss out from Balderson, Blatherwick, Hurt and Lavelle? Jones to open?

Yes, just noticed no Davies. 84 in his last innings. Is this just punishment for leaving? (But of course he played against Somerset).
No Wood also, I presume that's an injury issue.
Thinking about the point that Des raised the other day about Lancs losing their identity: Jack Blatherwick, why did we need to sign a seamer from Nottinghamshire. Are Burrows and Moulton not up to it?
No Hartley either, but given that Parkinson, Wells, Livingstone and Croft can all bowl spin I suppose that's understandable.
Maybe Bohannon, Jones, Wells, Livingstone, Vilas, Croft, Lamb, Balderson, Bailey, Mahmood, Parkinson. But that's two new openers and are Lamb and Balderson strong enough to be first change bowlers? If not bring in one of Hurt or Blatherwick and the tail starts at 8.
One other thing, let's hope LL takes the opportunity to raise his first class seasonal average to above 10.

I don’t underestimate how hard task it is to be up to the standard getting through the Lancashire Academy et cetera because we do have one hell of a catchment of talented players.
I just wish more of them got through that we didn’t need to sign the likes of Salt and Wells which is nothing against those players. I just love seeing locally raised players do well which was the wonderful thing about 2011

Imagine Wells will open with either Jones/Balderson followed by Bohannon/Croft/Livingstone/Lavelle/Lamb/Bailey/Saqib/Parky

Glad we have moved on from Croft. Batting a bit light but great to see Balderson and Lavelle given a go.
Five bowlers plus Livingstone gives us decent options
