31 run over for Surrey. They badly needed that, because they were heading for way under par at Taunton.
Middlesex lost two bowlers mid-over, on the way to conceding 228. Cullen pulled him hamstring, fielding off his own bowling. Helm got removed for bowling two full tosses. Surely the worst t20 season ever.
Even when Dawson bowls one of the last balls he'll ever bowl (the leg side one which Carter easily put away for 6), he still only goes for 21 off his 4 overs. Thank god for him and Ellis. If Vince or Ben make a decent score, we'll chase this. But if they both get out early, I wouldn't be too confident on our middle order - albeit we do bat deeper than usual.
Balls. I've got a mate who regularly played against Scott and Brad. He's always said that Brad was the better bowler growing up.
You’ll be alright for a fourth day on that wicket I think. But it’s always a gamble expecting four days with the approach of this England team.
To be fair to Vince, he did think the new ball would do a bit - hence bowling first. But once again, it's only our opponents who successfully use it.
