[Cricket] **** Blast, T20 Sussex V Hampshire 23rd May ****

[vegster]

Pants 10- without loss off first over, there goes our unbeaten run...

 

[vegster]

Don't make the mistake I did of getting the Radio Solent commentary by mistake, 33-0 off 3 and they are already gloating.

 

[vegster]

Right, that's that. Hampshire are 65-1 off 6 overs I'm going to mark this thread as "offensive " and hope a Mod closes it down while I get pissed and try to forget.

Was supposed to be there tonight but couldn't make it in the end.

Pants 139-3 after the 16th over- why is Bash Bash Nash not playing?

 

[jakarta]

177-5 innings break, 20-30 runs too many given the Sussex batting lineup.

As an aside - why does Ed Joyce play T20? A good 4 day player but this biff bash stuff completely escapes him.

Injured himself last Friday. Hamstring I think.

Injured himself last Friday. Hamstring I think.

I thought Nash played against Sri Lanka on Sunday? Although that said, I was pissed. To be fair, someone could have told me we had Botham and WG Grace opening for us and I would have just smiled and nodded!!!

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Sussex 41/2 off 5 overs.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

71/2 off 8 overs. 16 runs off the 8th over.

 

[Eeyore]

Just found out that Warwickshire are known as Birmingham Bears in the 20 over game. Thankfully, the BBC Cricket page is having none of it.

Cheers, what with a burst appendix he is in the wars at the moment. 84-2.

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

Zaidi was getting bat on ball and placing it well, but seems to lack any power to get the ball over the boundary.

Needed Yasir in earlier and another slogger...

 

[sagaman]

Its a long tournament- time to bounce back

 

[Luke93]

Joyce should open with Nash out; that allows one if our 'power hitters' to bat at 5/6, which we really needed today.

 

[8ace]

We gave them too many cheap runs as usual, some poor seam bowling and poor fielding tonight.
I ****ing hate pantshire.

Correct, did a hammy last week. Confirmed by someone very much ITK. He did go down like a sack of spuds after a quick single and definitely looked like it at the time too.

 

[dazzer6666]

Hants won tonight because their fielding was much better than ours. We gave away 2s that they were keeping to singles with their excellent outfielding. Zaidi, Arafat and co all too slow in the outfield.

 

[shwoody1]

the crap down the leg side bowling to the short boundary did not help. Gave them twenty runs or more.

 

[dazzer6666]

Their bowling was good as well...........
