India lost both their OD and T20 warm-ups against a pretty strong England Development XI. Difficult to know how much to read into this, but both v. high scoring games - India chasing 353 in the OD and 194 in the T20 - and I doubt they will encounter a road like Beckenham anywhere else on this tour.

It went down to the final couple of balls, but England 'A' squeaked it in the end - winning by 6 runs.

England 'A' post 297-4. Think they played that perfectly. Scrivens (84) played the anchor role - batted long and built a platform; meaning Grewcock (67) and Kemp (57) could come in later and accelerate with a bit of freedom. NZ 'A' will need to bat very, very well to get anywhere near this.

Is it just us, or is the quality of the Sussex v Kent YT stream unwatchable bad? (We were previously watching something else* on YT and it was fine, so we are pretty sure it isn’t our internet.) *A 13 hour retrospective of 2010s teen sitcom Victorious. Because.

We have an "A" squad!! I reckon someone at the ECB was watching our video, where we point out the squad still hadn't been announced even though the series starts in less than 24 hours, and was like "Ohhhhh fuuuuuuudge!"

NV Play is great in many ways, but this is so inaccessible. (Even I have trouble remembering which one is which.) And it is so easily fixed by having a “Known As” field and using that in the display.

Quick runs at the death from Amanda-Jade Wellington again for Somerset - as I mentioned in my report from Friday's game, it is mystifying why she isn't coming in earlier in the order? #T20Blast 🏏
