Totally agree. Sky should have streams or a red button on skysports mix, even if it’s without commentary but the actual sound from the ground

im off to IKEA shortly. Mrs has her eye on something. My wallet is worried

If he's captain, surely it's his own choice where to bat and whether to bowl himself?

Yes .... but ..... probably at least the former would be in consultation with the coach and is there not general acceptance that it is in the best interests of the team to have your best batsmen face the more balls the better rather than appear to be leaving it to your team mates? Or even to have a degree of stability in the batting order - another common modern day aspect thrown around is all players knew their role in the team.
Am all in favour of flexible batting order, but why send in anyone else first and your captain chooses to bat in the 19th over?
The captain bats 5, 5, 5, 6, 4, 4, 6, 6, 7, 8 with everyone else moving around correspondingly. Where does he bat in the IPL?

Fair to say this Surrey bowling performance is one of the worst you could see, notwithstanding the flat pitch. Keeper has made Bairstow look like Dhoni.

Not sure where Jamie Smith was, but they certainly missed him. That was so Middlesex, cannot buy a win all season, then break the Blast record by chasing down 250 odd.
