The Cricket Thread

The trouble is, when he steps aside he leaves his leg stump unprotected...

 

Is that 'pick' with a silent 'r' ?

 

We'll that proves I know nothing!! WELL DONE ENGLAND. Happy to be proven totally wrong!!!!

 

That was a good deal closer than my old ticker needed. Well done Woakes and Wood getting us over the line.

 

Somerset resting Overton, Gregory, Henry, Davey and TKC for our four day match this week, ahead of Saturday.

We've gone full strength - albeit there are only three or four players who will be playing for us in both matches anyway.

 

This will be Bess' third four-day game in a row playing for a different county.

On 11 June he lined up for Yorkshire. In the next round of matches, on 27 June, it was Warwickshire. And now it's Somerset.

I wonder if anyone else has done that before?

 

Fielding, no speech on the stream at the moment? (It's just been sorted!)

 

Nice one Kyle.

 

Lammonby caught behind 26 - 1 6.4 overs.

 

Abell caught and bowled Abbott 5. 36 - 2.

 

Ha, run out! And in the unluckiest way possible.

 

Very unfortunate. But we'll take it.

 

Poor old Bartlett can really curse his luck there.

 

Another one for Abbott!

 

Kyle does love playing against Somerset

 

So that's 3 wickets for Kyle and 1 for his finger.

 

Dawson's first ball turned a mile. On day 1, before lunch.

 

S 74 - 4 RSP and lunch.

 

That's what you call throwing your wicket away.

 

And without the likes of Gregory, Overton and RVDM, hopefully this will be a rare occasion where Somerset's lower order aren't able to bail them out of trouble.

That said, Rew is having a great season.
