Which were state school kids who got scholarships?

Virdi and Patel are two examples.
But Lawes, Pope etc were also on sports scholarships.

Stokes' comments following the NZ series were interesting about county players knowing how they needed to play to get a chance in the side.  Sibley's style of putting pressure on himself rather than the bowlers doesn't really fit with that style.  He is also a poor athlete and a terrible fielder.  You do wonder whatever he does in terms of run scoring whether he fits with the current team ethos

I'm sure he could thrash a quick 25 if he put his mind to it.

I think we could see another chance for Sibley. The move back to Surrey may see for scoring options on that good wicket.

Flamingo on drives and reverse sweeps maybe

He's currently 41* off 35 in an opening stand of 44...

Yes, but 'Lees and Lyth' has a nice ring to it.
