If you look at the modes of dismissals between Hants and Warks then it's clear that we have got ourselves out with expansive shots far more than they have. We are going to need Keith and Mo to be right on it for us to win, we really need a 200+ lead to give them a chance. Daws is going to have to do the Briggs role and keep it tight when the other two are resting.
Now it's probably game over . 7 wickets down ( 8 including Jimmy ) and 41 overs to survive . Bumrah has BOWLED BRILLIANTLY .
Records must surely be tumbling at Hove, Middlesex openers, Robson and Jerome ( sorry Stoneman!) are currently sharing a 359 stand!
Wheal and Barker making batting look easy. Once the lead is over 250, we should think about declaring. And I should lay off the mid-afternoon alcohol
