It's hard on Patrick, as he's been bowling well, but Gough's outstanding OD form is hard to ignore so I'm giving him a chance to prove his worth to us in the longer form. Hopefully he takes the chance. Blackman's in for Markus.

BARNES OUT
Blacks vs. Colts OD

JE Stedman (6)
AP Chaulk+
AP Cloete
AJ Blackman
GAJ Armstrong
DP Smith*
ZE Gelman (3)
DP Richards (5)
KJ Gough (2)
NS Pickup (4)
NL Patrick (1)

12th man: AR Arnold
13th man: Kexing Su

With the Markus injury, Chaulk moves up to open ahead of Cloete due to his and Stedman's amazing opening track-record. With the bowling, if someone's taking a sickening amount of stick and Stedman isn't stemming the flow throw it to me, Cloete or Blackman. Not sure who has the best bowling sim stats as I'm not able to access mine at the moment. Just throw it to whoever has. Confident we won't be needed anyway.

Bat first, if possible.

Assuming no injuries we'll be unchanged. If there's injuries to one of the top 2, Cloete opens with the other and Arnold slots in at 5. If it's a bowler, Su comes in and pushes everyone up. If it's Dav who's injured, throw Donald in for him and bat him above Gelman.
