They took one similar to that against Lancashire, same bowler, and first over after powerplay, and scores were similar too..

Squad released. No changes apart from Stokes coming in. No spin option apart from Ali so lets hope Cook actually gives him a few overs.
Anyone else that should have been in?? I dont follow country cricket that much.
England squad for first Test with India: Alastair Cook (Essex) (capt), Moeen Ali (Worcestershire), James Anderson (Lancashire), Gary Ballance (Yorkshire), Ian Bell (Warwickshire), Stuart Broad (Nottinghamshire), Chris Jordan (Sussex), Liam Plunkett (Yorkshire), Matt Prior (Sussex), Sam Robson (Middlesex), Joe Root (Yorkshire), Ben Stokes (Durham), Chris Woakes (Warwickshire)

Anyone see the catch today in the Yorkshire-Nottingham match yesterday?
Watched the game, catch of the season for me. Leicestershire were one of the worst fielding teams I have seen. The wicketkeeper was village green standard. Yorkshire were streets ahead in the fielding stakes. Bit disappointed Finch didn't tee off though. Challo said:

I'm happy with that , even though we lost to SL. I don't want to go back to the 90s selection of bringing in flavour of the week , it will take quite a while to bed these players into international cricket. A lot of those players are just starting out let's give them a year or so to settle in. Anyone else that should have been in?? I dont follow country cricket that much.
