Derby have been pretty useless all season. We made them look good for 70 overs but we could and should still get back in this game...

I enjoy "the joke" but it is occasionally nice to talk about the cricket too...
No idea what was first innings par on this wicket and how well we are in the game.
Suspect we wanted them out for no more than around 280 when we started - obviously will have to settle for a few more than that now.
New ball will be crucial - blast out the three wickets and at least we have fought back. A flurry of runs and they go past 320+ and things, on the face of it, look pretty grim...

Another goes - new ball does the job
Van Z makes it 8 down
Commentators saying how we have bowled a lot of no balls today, hope this is not the difference over 4 days.

FFS! The cricket season used to end with the Gillette cup 1st week September! Now it goes onto end Sept. bad light at 4pm?
338-9 at close. Bit of a rearguard action, as expected.

strong and stable with me, or...
Batting should be relatively straight forward in Hove today...
He's got to be better at keeping than captaincy

Press reporting that the beamer Whittingham bowled at Godlemen broke his hand. The batsman played on and scored 51, but says that results show he has a broken hand and is out for the rest of the season.
Hopefully won't affect Whittingham but it must not feel good to affect someone elses season like that.
Brian Owens report in the Argus about it

No joking from me but wondered what your view was on Brown putting them in?

I am not getting any commentary.
Its notable that normally Adrian will have an interview with a player or Brown on audio boom by now, but nothing. I think they made a big error in believing the pitch would do something, this was then compounded by all reports of us then bowling poorly and ill disciplined in the first part of the match.
