This pitch is going to be given a look probably, but both teams do have extremely **** batting line ups so it could just be them.

I don't know who this Dominic Bess thinks he is, but he better not outshine Jack Leach next innings

If there is a lions first class tour it'll be interesting to see which names they come up with. A lot of young openers scoring runs this season in div 1. Jennings, Gubbins, Hameed, Burns and Lees all with 1000 runs. Westley and Northeast in div 2 are both a bit older but haven't been on a lions first class tour and have racked up some massive aggregates over the last couple of years- and look well organised players. Lots of other names also.

Rory Burns has had another solid year, at some point they might want to have a look at him as I've always thought he had the technique. Foakes will be a banker, if it isn't in India tour.

I'm surprised with all the names being thrown around the England team that Gubbins of Middlesex hasn't been mentioned - he's had one hell of a season, you could say better than Hameeds.

Super flat pitch plays into it, but yeah he has kicked on massively this year. Younger than I realised as well.

Leicestershire back on form after a worrying season.

Jack Brooks has suddenly started batting. Curious development

If Duckett doesn't get a Test Touring place, I'm going to be officially annoyed, has does everything he can to deserve it.

Pathetic batting again. Our top order are disgusting, if Ian Bell goes to India the selectors should be sacked.

Infact, if they are serious about Bell being a class player of spin then they should be taking Jack 'Murali' Leach surely?

4 for ****ing 6. Shambles.

I'd take Leach to India as well. Accurate left armers can do plenty of work there.

Really goes to show that all left arm spinners are crap except for the ones called Jack

There's nothing about this post I don't like.

If i hear a pundit in the next preseason talking up the Bears "strong top order" I will ****ing murder them. But you know the likes of Cork who don't pay any attention will be rattling on about that again. Yep we do have a strong top order in white ball cricket for the most part. But in red ball it has been nothing short of disgusting. I want 3 new batsmen. How about we sign some ****ing foreigner like every other tin pot club does. Somerset barely have an English bloke playing some weeks.
