NO! A ****ing no ball! ****.

 

[tomw24]

Sorry Colin, but you've made a massive **** up there. Wasn't even close - his foot was well over.

 

[tomw24]

That will do nicely. It's not Livingstone, but a wicket's a wicket.

NO! A ****ing no ball! ****.

I’m afraid I can’t understand why bowlers are falling foul of the front foot law so often nowadays, with every ball being checked upstairs. I was a bowler, albeit nowhere near as quick as these guys, and the first thing you do at the start of a spell is to get your run up right, so that your delivery stride is right.

 

[tomw24]

YES!

 

[ChilcoSaint]

Great spell by Lintott this.

 

[tomw24]

Got away with that one!

 

[tomw24]

Nice one Daws, keep the pressure on them.

 

[ChilcoSaint]

Excellent from the spinners.

 

[tomw24]

CDG may well have lost this game on his own. Got some making up to do with the bat.

Before this tournament the Brave’s bowling attack was being lauded. They have been abysmal in every game so far

How were the pundits so wrong ?

 

[tomw24]

Great, now we've missed the cut off. Vince's captaincy has left a lot to be desired so far.

Dawson, Lintott, and Garton have done OK in this one.

Cut off ?

I still have zero confidence in us chasing this. When you put the other side into bat, drop their best hitter and don’t really restrict them it damages morale

Cut off ?

The time limit to get to the last 5 balls. We had to bring in another fielder into the circle as a result.

We didn't drop him we got him out on a no ball.

 

[ChilcoSaint]

I keep thinking Miles Hammond is Steve McManaman.

 

[Gregm1988]

I misread one of the updates (or got mixed up). Same difference though. As in teased getting him out and then he run up a big total

Morale damaging either way

 

[ChilcoSaint]

Sumptuous from Vince.
