Gloucester Saint

Good power play, just 37 off it. Dawson on. Notts have wickets in hand but getting behind the rate already.

Hopefully he’ll save it for the final should we get there.

George Munsey gone! 5th highest scorer this competition. Good field placement as he’s scored a lot of runs square-leg, Wood gets the length right and Stubbs pouches the catch.

Bollocks, Stubbs lame scoop and out. Cartwright next.

Amir and Stone quality but agree their other bowlers are very poor. Hard to know how Pennington got into the Test squad last year, 5-6 mph short of any penetration and doesn’t move it much in the air or off the pitch. Their two spinners Linde and Howell (who we know well) are cannon fodder.

Vince gone for 59, but good time for Cartwright or Stubbs. I’d go Stubbs. Yep, it’s him.

50 for Vince, great crowd catch in the Hollies corner. Linde as much use as a chocolate fireplace.

Weatherley different player in white ball, but there was some movement early 9n to contend with against Amir and he coped. Majes you wonder how he’s struggled in red ball.

Love the keeper’s optimism on the first - ‘catch it’, in the 6th row of the Hollies maybe. But a chance later on that side, albeit tricky off Vince. Weatherley 50 - well played.

Need to use their feet to Howell and hit him over the top.

Weatherley much happier in white ball, motoring now.

Better now, Weatherley has worked out that Pennington is a Vestergaard - tall but zero pace.

Not the best start but early days.

Bit awkward for Ed.

Mahmood apparently. Safest with the markets but she’s calmed things down a lot further at the Home Office. His other safe pair of hands, Yvette Cooper, it’ll be interesting to see where she ends up. Streeting, what prize for not standing? Share your cynicism on Rayner and also Miliband (Ed variety, not David who might turn up via peerage). Although Streeting already cut a 60% swathe through NHS England’s staffing and the DOHSC merger and waiting lists coming down albeit not across the board so only so much harm she could do. Allisder Heath has some front in the DT. Yes, the same one who wanked off over Truss’s budget (the greatest in a generation apparently) and Truss herself. I don’t think I’ll put much store in his opinions. Nor the Mail who ditto. Keynes stopped working in the 1970s and the Thatcher levers haven’t been working for quite some time. Burnham worries me on the economy but economics goes in cycles.
