Stop it! You are sounding like Ben's Grandad

 

[TSB]

21 wickets lost in 5 sessions...nice one groundsman!

Ooooh! That's low.

 

[TSB]

37-1, yardy swiftly to 22...no point scoring slowly on a wicket like this!

 

[Turkey]

They playing tomorrow? Might wonder up the road and watch a bit. Will wear the stripes of course.

 

[Turkey]

In that case I can't think of a better excuse for a relaxing in the... sun?. Mind you, going out tonight so it depends whether I have a massive hangover or not.

Good old Sussex by the Sea

Looking good weather this week

 

[Trigger]

100/3

 

[Titanic]

Murray Goodwin gone for 8 at 92/3)... now 112/3 leading by 155.

We need another decent knock from the skipper to set some sort of target on this tricky wicket.

 

[TSB]

112-4 monty fails again

 

[Titanic]

112-4 monty fails again

That's a bit harsh... 35 from 125 balls on an obviously very difficult wicket is not exactly a failure.

Only 5 batsmen scored more than that in the first innings.

 

[Titanic]

ooops Hodd the Nightwatchman has gone, leaving us on 119/5 (162 in the lead).

Come on Tucker !

 

[Brixtaan]

Aah, the perennially disappointing county cricket merrygoround has started.

 

[Titanic]

Grizzly's going for it big style!

30 off 24 balls, with 7 boundary 4's.

let's hope he can keep it up... 137/5... lead now 180.

After 3 abject innings we needed him to come up big this time...and he didn't! Maybe a little harsh...i'm in that kind of mood!

140-5, we've gotta set them over 260!
