I've said this before. Gumbie doesn't have the shots to open the batting. A Matty Welch and Ben Curran pening partnership would fill me with so much more confidence. The issue is the bias in selection. Both Welch's will need to score heavily in the next logan Cup match to even be considered for the test match. I'd absolutely like to see Nick Welch in there somewhere but again, it's a case of where he fits in. Sounds like Williams could be out for a while

Can they, at a minimum, turn the stump mic down?

Only so much 'LOVELY' 'Oooooooo' and 'COME ON BOYS' I can take at full volume.

Fuck me. Rashid was pissed at Curran whacking him. 'Can't do that to me' as he takes his stumps.

One of the louder teams on the circuit, surprised the umpires don’t tell them to calm down

Curran was looking entirely comfortable up to that point.
Just felt he could have gone foward to that, pitched in the footmark.

Kaitano looking comfortable. Doesn't look remotely interested in scoring a run though.
