Many are the occasions in first class cricket when the game reaches a crisis – there is the batsman who, without compunction, is ripping the side and there’s no bowler to get him out; conversely, there is the bowler who is striking terror by wrecking the batting side and there’s no batsman who would be equal to the task; and then, there is the fielding side on its off-day where catches are being grassed with gay abandon and there’s no fielder in the side who, by example, would stem the rot!
