4 for 14!
Commentator reporting that Davies has a slight finger issue which is why he’s not keeping.

Back to our usualstarts, losing a wicket in the 7th over
And the 8th!
The first wicket of the season is a run-out, that can’t have happened many times.
We’ve won the toss and bowl first

VERY interesting that Ed B is Captain - and Davies is playing? A red ball game as well - a portent for this season?
