If Smid and Engelland continue playing solidly, there is little reason to break up the pairings. If one of them has a few bad starts, or there are fatigue issues it is a different thing.
We are talking about a 28 year old player who was signed for depth with some potential, not a blue chip prospect. It also comes up to always earned never given. If Smid and England continue having solid outings, why switch them out? Does that not go against the flames slogan?
