Game 9 (I think) of the SE T20 competition, can they maintain their 100% winning record?

Velani is a new name in the team, also Henry B returns.

Kish Velani is an ex Essex player, who career figures make Adrian Shanker's look good!

Another good win, and good to see more runs from Malan.

It's really annoying, and a waste of time when people post non functioning links,

VV is playing today!

Another round of the SE T20 today, to be played at Moseley CC.

Expect to see some new faces in the squad, as the T20 specialists will be with the first team.

14 man squad https://edgbaston.com/fixtures/first-xi/steelbacks-v-birmingham-bears-15-june-2021/
Yates out "illness 2 Hose & Henry B have hamstring injuries.

Who here would actually refer to have Viahari instead of Malan?

I'm sure Malan will prove to be a good signing. what we don't know is the size of the positive effect he has on the squad, with Bell, Trott, Ambrose and Patel retirng over the last few seasons, there's not a lot of experience in the changing room. something Malan was signed to provide.

14 man squad, Hose drops out through injury, Malan and Woakes added to the squad for the first two games.

Very pleased to see Ed Pollock got runs, he is a talented player, also yet more runs for Sam Hain, he's become a very reliable and consistant player.

Unchanged squad, as they probably stayed in Leeds overnight.

Looking at the selections for the second team T20's I's suggest that Mousley will be in the team, and that Lamb would be selected ahead of Hose.
Remember Lamb offers a leg spin option.

Based on current second team T20 performances Pollock has to be included, over 200 runs in three innings this week.

Nobody else in the squad was near that level of performance.

14 wickets so far in this session, does suggest the conditions for batting are difficult.

It was an excellent catch by the keeper, and better batsmen than him have been strangled down the legside before.

Even with a few low scores, he looks more secure than Vihari ever did.

Another 50 for Ed Pollock, also runs for Hose, Braithwaite & Bethell.

45 off 15 balls for Ed in the second game, currently 46/1 off 2.4 overs.
I'd take that type of start anyday. Hopefully Ed is given a long run of games in the T20 Blast.

Good win and an Excelent 87 off 54 balls for Ed Pollock
