“ The most poignant question or comparison must surely be, trophy winning Gloucestershire a team on the up now, and relegation threatened Lancashire perennial losers this season and a team on the down, what’s the link……….. surely it’s not that hard for people at the top or anybody to work that out !” it’s easy for mastermind Chilton to work it out . Don’t forget he had the nerve to say that the reason Gloucestershire was doing well this season was the work Benkenstein did last year 😀

Are Vaughan and Leach expected to take all the wickets while Lancs don't have a spinner as Morley is with Derbys?

I'd be surprised if we produced a wicket to suit Jack Leach! Maybe just rely on Wells and replace Hartley with Flintoff..

Just a thought - Mahmood finishes his mini stint with England tomorrow as he is not in the ODI squad. He isn't in the England squad to tour Pakistan in October. Will he play in the Somerset game or will Lancashire/ECB/Mahmood himself want to "manage" his workload? Ditto Livingstone. Not LL's biggest fan but his bowling has improved, so would be an upgrade on Iyer or Hartley. As far as I know he's not playing in the CPL, but I may be wrong and these things change quickly. He's now been recalled due to buttlers injury.

Somerset losing players injured tonight They could play their 2nd team and they'd still win by an innings.

It could be an interesting members forum on Wednesday lunchtime! What's the odds it get's postponed owing to 'unexpected unavailability'? There'll be less turn up if they hold it a couple of weeks later.

At least we've been spared (D)Iyer, he's buggered off back to India.

The contract Indian players have with the BCCI prevents them from playing any franchise cricket other than the IPL. I think the ECB should also do something along these lines. I don't object to players playing in the IPL and Big Bash but it doesn't seem right when they play in these minor tournaments that clash with our domestic cricket season.

Obviously cash is king!

Fair play to Bairstow who is continuing to play for Yorks. He could easily become a t20 mercenary if he so wished.

Does this hint that he will play? He was working out every lunch break at Durham last week.
