Because obviously we lost Ajit in the first, like literally first 10, 15 minutes of the game.

And then you've got the substitute rule now where you can replace an injured player.

And there was loads of back and forth with that because we had two bowlers at the ground.

One was Mitch Stanley who had a back spasm who couldn't play.

And we had Tom Bailey who was regarded as too good to replace Ajit Singh Dale.

But we didn't know that that was part of the regulations.

So yeah, it felt ridiculous at the time.

We've then got to get Oli Sutton, who's just played a four-day game in Leicester for the second team, to literally travel three hours to then take part in the game.

So he played seven days of cricket in a row, which surely it doesn't make sense from an injury perspective.

So yeah, we had that going on.

I don't understand the Tom Bailey thing at all, because you haven't picked him in the first place.

Yeah, I don't want to get into trouble by saying anything.

I shouldn't.

But we just thought, I think the whole ground, to be honest, the opposition just presumed it would be Tom that would come in.

You know, the rules say like for like replacement.

It was a new ball bowler for a new ball bowler.

But the match referee determined that Tom's record was better than Ajit's.

He'd seen him bowl earlier in the season, thought they bowled better than him.

So it was like he's adding resources to the game or adding quality to our team for that game.

Yeah.
