Local lad and captain Brook makes a ton in warm up along with another lad. Funny to think my Mrs has played against Harry when he was a young lad in 3rd team and got him out, now he's England captain and on a Yorkshire contract

India had a few impressive kids on display last night. Prithvi Shaw looks like a legend in the making. And their two fast bowlers where rapid. Nagarkoti was clocked at 149 kph and Mavi at 146kph. Beat Australia with pure pace.

Shaw is absolute class, gets runs for fun in the Indian domestic league.

Some lovely lofted shots over extra off the spinners. Wonder if he'll get any first team opportunities at Yorkshire this year.

He got some last season so I don't see why not, especially with the England boys busy. He looked awesome today, and so calm with how he carries himself. Very impressed I knew he was good but he's gone up a level or 2 in my view
