Day 1 of the County Cricket season has ended and my power to jinx teams I watch remains as strong as ever 😀

I note with interest the BBC News piece about Rob Key and Brendon McCullum being part of a call with county coaches.

When Gareth Batty makes a criticism as he as of the Bazball regime, that needs to be taken on board. He's a very positive chap who I've had the pleasure of chatting with on a few occasions.

Gareth doesn't do criticism unless it's deserved and he's always measured in what he says. We are blessed to have him as our Men's Head Coach at Surrey.

Whatever Key, McCullum, Thompson and Gould may say, the proof of the pudding is in the eating. They need to deliver to back up their words.

I'll say it again - England are 7th out of 9 in the World Test Championship.

That is not good enough.

After a wobbly start, I think Surrey ended up having quite a good day, at the start of the County Cricket.
