Interesting to see Latham with the gloves.
Named in the XI to play the first ODI against WI tomorrow.
Has signed a one year contract extension.
Warwickshire have signed 18 year old Ben Blakemore on a one year rookie contract. Ben is a seam bowling all-rounder who has come up through the ranks at Warwickshire and impressed last year with the 2nd XI and on the winter tours.
We have a squad:

It looks as though Stuart Cain is on the case - he says:
"We have been unlucky with injuries and the weather but, ultimately, others have been through the same, and I can see why some will say these are just excuses," Stuart Cain, the Warwickshire CEO, told The Cricketer. "We need to develop a squad and level of resilience that can manage what the season throws at us. We've not performed to the standards we set ourselves."Sounds like a load of waffle.
In the bear pit of AGMs in years gone by Cain might have been in some jeopardy as per whatever the Chairman is called!
These days they think they are above it all and not accountable.
They’ve done some good things like the games at Rugby School but I do wonder if we ever recovered from the loss of Farbrace!
Look what Farby has done at Sussex. Bottom feeders in Div 2 when he took over, now 2 seasons later after some astute signings of domestic and overseas players they are promoted to Div 1 and will probably finish as champions next week.
I would think it’s difficult to gee yourself up for these final games. The end of a long season, nothing riding on the outcome, one man and his dog in the stands and not making Blast finals day will all have taken there toll on any enthusiasm the players may have had.
We’ve won the toss and bowl first.
