The Ashes & Hampshire Cricket Summer Thread

Normally Carbs who gets off to as flier. Tonight it's Vince as he smashes consecutive 6's.

 

Oh I spoke too soon, again. Vince is out.

 

2nd over from Claydon: 4.444.

 

Hants 63/2 from 6 overs.

 

50 for Carbs. He's been superb in this years T20 competition.

 

Hants 117/2 off 13 overs. Big score for Hants tonight, maybe 200.

 

Carberry has surely got to be considered for the England one day side.

 

Mckenzie run out. Maybe not a bad thing as this brings Ervine to the crease.

 

My mistake - Dimi's in at 5!

 

So Hants end up on 185/6. Great knock from Carbs.

 

This thread should be called Ashes and Ampshire Cricket thread...bit posh with an 'h'.

 

First Kent wicket gone - Dimi takes it. 27/1.

 

And Dimi has another! 28/2.

 

Hants on top here, required rate over two runs a ball. Stevens hitting a few sixes but just been caught. Should be curtains and top spot for us!

 

Ampshire's (ok Fran?) bowling unit has strangled Kent and forced them into playing big, desperate shots early, very impressive....should win easily from here.

 

3 wickets in an over for Dawson has wrapped the game up.

 

And Dawson has his 4th wicket. His figures so far: 2.4 overs 4-15! Career best.

 

To quote the old phrase...

In Hertford, Hereford, and Hampshire, hurricanes hardly ever happen..!

 

Hampshire win by 62 runs. Checked out T20 finals day. Tickets cost just £40 which is £20 down on recent years.

 

Where is finals day this year?
