Probably not. I didn't hear anything racist.

Middlesex successfully chased more than 400 in 80 overs against Glamorgan on the same ground last year.

Yeah, well we ain't Glamorgan, are we?

Wicket Keeper bowling? Is that allowed, does he wear full pads while bowling, now that would be fun.

Not only have there been many examples of wicket-keeper's bowling but one, Alan Smith of Warwickshire, actually took a hat-trick while doing so.

Interesting day today: the overnight storm will have slowed down the outfield and the conditions might aid the seamers. Middlesex are a good batting side, possibly the best in Div 1, but I think they'll struggle to get those runs now.

Also, if the conditions are more humid, there could be some swing which could help.

Great to knock up all 22 points and be 23 clear of Lancs.

just seen the notes on Goodwins innings. Fcuk me that is some awsome effort in a county championship match

 

[Timbo]

Middlesex are certainly having a go. 37/0 scoring at over 7 an over.
