The Cricket Thread

Like the Rose Bowl pitches of old which Danny Briggs loved!

 

Come on Sky, get the CPL off and the Hants game on!

 

Thank you Sky!

 

You would expect so, with 120 overs (almost) already bowled on this wicket in the past week. Something like 130 might be enough. We'll see.

 

Good to get the wicket. But annoying (for us) that Wright made his new mate sacrifice himself.

 

Gift!

 

Damn nearly a second wicket.

 

Rawlins at 3 is such a better move than 5 or 6. He goes after everything; plays with very little brain. Coming in down the order usually just results in him holing out. Yes he got lucky with that edge, but it makes much more sense to bat him with only two men on the rope.

 

Great catch.

 

The boy has talent. But he's totally brainless.

 

Oops Vince.

 

I wonder if Sussex will go after Harrison here.

 

Tough chance, but could be costly.

 

Does anyone know what's happened to Brad Taylor? I'm assuming he must be injured but I haven't heard any news on him at all so far this season. He's not been in any of the squads.

 

I think he's injured, yes (but not certain).

He signed a new contract at the end of the last season, so it's not like he's been released.

First wicket for the new lad.

 

Here come our nemesis.

 

Well done Calvin!

 

I'd be tempted to hold back Mason now.

 

Very nice and tidy three overs from Crane. But from someone who should probably be our best bowler on this wicket, we could have done with something in the wicket column from him so far.

I can't see Briggs not picking at up at least one.

 

Hmmm, need Wiese out.
