Just didn't score enough runs really. When an opener scores a run a ball century and you fall short of 250, something's gone wrong somewhere else.
So their fielding wasn't too bad (obviously I can see their ratings, just curious as to what that cost us)? Our next best bat is Herd I think, so Boland/Dempsey/O'Driscoll bring a lot more batting wise (although Boland will need to find some form soon), so as long as their fielding isn't too much of a detriment it should be fine.
