Currie needs to "pull a hamstring" so he can be subbed. He just isn't a CC player.

We're not even at tea on day one, and Glamorgan already have as many batting points in this match as we have all season so far.

We're nowhere near a bowling point either.

Because we only have 3 proper bowlers in the team. Organ is not a frontline spinner and Currie is a OD and T20 player. Like I said, Currie needs to "pull a hamstring" or eat a dodgy curry.

G 318 - 1 80 overs

Well that was one of the worst 80 over stints we've ever had with a ball before - bearing in mind we choose to bowl, and the opposition are nothing to shout about.

 

[SAINTOSPREY]

15 minutes in and I'm staggered we chose to bowl. Someone needs their head testing quite frankly.

You called that one right, why put them in when you have a weakened bowling side? Suicide. Surely Baker should be using the new ball?

 

[tomw24]

Congratulations Ben. You're making yourself the worst captain in the club's history. Now quit.

 

[st_brendy]

One of the worst days I can remember from us. And we've had some shockers.

 

[st_brendy]

All four sides who won the toss in D1 decided to bowl. And I would suggest it's highly likely that three of them will end up failing to take ten wickets due to their opponents declaring on them (as has already happened at the Oval).

A wicket! Fluke run out 397 - 2

 

[tomw24]

A bowling point!

 

[st_brendy]

Avoided the embarrassment of no bowling points.

Or no points at all from a match which I could easily have seen happening.

Depends what our over rate is I suppose.

Gloucs were still on zero points after two games, after losing their only two (bowling) points due to slow over rates.

But yeah, I wouldn't be shocked at all if we fail to score 250.

 

[st_brendy]

Notts have totally messed up getting that 5th batting point. They were cruising towards it not long ago. Missed it by one run.
