The Cricket Thread

Now for them to put their foot down

 

In his 3rd match for us, he equals the number of 100s which McManus has managed for us in his career.

 

I can see a declaration before tea going at this rate.

 

This will be interesting for Felix. We know he can defend, but that's the total opposite of what we want from him here. But at the same time, he's really short of runs this season, so getting out having a hack on nought might not be helpful looking further ahead.

 

Declare FFS.

 

No sign that we've declared. If we bat on after tea then Birrell quite frankly should be fired.

 

Oh we have declared. Thank goodness for that.

 

Breakthrough!

 

DBD gone for a duck!

 

Bowled him!

 

That one turned sharply. Crane could have some joy on the last day.

 

That's the three wickets I wanted this session. Anything extra is a bonus now.

 

Bloody hell that kept low!

 

Ben Foakes off the field at the Oval after a sickening collision with Jamie Overton while taking a catch.

 

When you're trying to save a game, that's a bad way to get out.

 

Doubt that Abbas has picked up many wickets with a bouncer before!

 

I just watched 5 balls of cricket. Two fours and three wickets. Exciting stuff!

 

A Michelle for Abbott and Hants win by an innings.

 

Excellent win and 24 points in the bag!

 

You saw basically the only five balls I missed! I left the laptop for two minutes...
