Westley seems to me to be a bit under rated. certainly don't get mentioned as much as others.

perhaps because he plays at Essex

Never stopped Cook and Ravi Bop getting chances?

Though yes, not playing division one cricket has probably stood against him when compared to Hameed, Jennings etc...

Well, looks like the Lions are grimly hanging on to try and save this 'test' - they are a bit on the back foot here!

Poor old Jack Leach seems to have been completely messed up with this action re-building, something is clearly not right, he's gone for well over 5 an over and looks on paper to have been outbowled by Rayner. A difficult time for the young man, perhaps Rogers was on to something with his comments at the end of the season?

On a positive note, young Mr Livingstone is having a wonderful time, a century in each innings!!! We played sir!

Quite unusual for a fellow team-mate to basically warn the selectors last season about Leach as he was on the verge of a call up

Rodgers is a clever cricketer with huge experience, we may just be thanking him in a couple of seasons time Leach needs more time

They fort back hard by the looks of things - the Sri Lankans only needed 90 and they got 7 wickets.

Sounds like Livingstone played a blinder in a losing cause - also Flower talks about how good Foakes keeping was.
