Whether we rested our most experienced and in-form bowlers because we under-estimated Netherlands (hard to believe) or because we've already de-prioritised the competition, neither reflects well on the planning. Neither does sending out an under-strength side on a hot holiday afternoon with a decent crowd in. Not many of those will be back on a cold evening in June for 20-20, surely part of the point of the exercise. There's not much point in the business side of the club putting in an effort that is then undermined on the cricket side. <br /><br />Anyway, back to the Needham enigma. Senior spinner (for what that's worth at Derbyshire) at the start of the season. Overtaken by a loanee of debatable quality in the first game he might have played a part in, and now replaced as second-choice by a 17 year old.<br /><br />Given that John Morris rated hin highly enough two year ago to give him a three year contract extension, what has happened to put him so far off the reckoning?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
