The only thing I would ever ask my partner would be the specific question that coach asked, but ONLY if coach asked the right question.
Why?
I would never go to my partner and ask, "What do you have?". I would also never answer that question if my partner came to me and asked me that question.

Why not "Partner, did you see anything that would make the call different"?
