LFC Cricket Bashing Thread

<cough>

ffs this is shocking.

 

Poor Mr Gonzo...

 

Throwing wickets away on a batting pitch....oh for a Trescothick type opener.

#ballbags

 

this just makes for a better game later on when we still win despite being ****e

 

42 - 3. This needs to be a sizable stand

 

What we aiming for, whats a realistic first innings total?

 

300 would be good from here.

 

That would also be a bit ambitious

I was thinking 200, maybe 220

 

350. Tuffers has just ****ed it by saying Trott and Bell are in good touch. Do they never learn?

 

56 - 3.

 

only need 2 decent knocks then a few from the lower order is easily do able.

 

80 - 3 at lunch.

 

Not great but nor is it a disaster, it's a mweh

 

Really depends what occurs straight after lunch. The timing's not great

 

Hopefully they'll have a few cans and be a bit more relaxed

 

I once played cricket after drinking 4 pints in an hour. First ball bowled at me I swore was coming straight at my head. I ducked right down and the ball took my bails off without bouncing. In ducking, I split my whites right round my arse. I never did it again

 

It was a regular occurrence for me to have had a drink before batting, especially when we were batting second (so I didn't have to worry about fielding). I was always in the lower order for batting so often didn't make it to the pitch

 

Would have been funnier if you tried ducking a yorker! Ha

 

So is Billy the trumpet there or what?

I reckon we'll bat a bit then they'll have a go & everyone will get bevvied
