warm-ups

Traded from Dallas only 10 days before this promising debut, Parsons ran out to the wrong end of the field for warm-ups as he settled into his new surroundings.

So when the team was lacking effort during warm-ups, he made players start again.

"The Lions looked battle-hardened, ready and a lot of the clunky stuff in the warm-ups had gone," said former Lion Tom Shanklin on BBC iPlayer.

He brings the balls out for the warm-ups, not a usual responsibility for the head coach, but a small statement of his ways.

In their warm-ups, they have conceded 353-5 to England's Select XI in a 50-over match and 194-8 in the T20, eventually losing both.
