Stokes knee
I missed this story from a few days ago – the Stokes knee problem. He’s been struggling since the West Indies series and can’t make any decisions about the summer until he has the results of a CT scan. All of this may influence any decision regarding Joe Root’s future – to be decided by a cricket manager, who has yet to be appointed.

Preamble
Hello! And welcome to Day 2 – it already seems normal for County cricket to be played. If people were still doing offices, maybe it would be gossip at the water cooler. “Have you seen that old thug Alastair Cook being a century old, and what about Somerset? Why did they choose to beat? I heard Ollie Pope looks good – and away from home too.
The sun is shining over Birmingham. Let’s have a good day.
