The Cricket Thread

I'm just frustrated with our openers, they have consistantly failed to do their job all season ie see off the new ball and that is why we have failed to get a decent innings total throughout the campaign. it has to be better next season.

I agree about our openers. Hopefully Donald will come good. I do think we need an upgrade on Weatherley as well.

We’ll be fine.

We’ll be fine.

I'm praying that you can scrape the fifty odd runs for victory, need Lancs to lose that game.

Well done Tom Alsop, that's another massively important knock, maybe try him as Opener/WK in the next match, Alec Stewart managed to combine the both jobs ok.

64-8! 14 to win, 2 wickets to lose!
