You soft southern blouse wearing shandy drinking poofs still in the Mickey Mouse division?

 

[Mackenzie]

210/8

210 runs in 96 overs. That is how to play cricket.

Durham

 

[Postman Pat]

Is it time for George Garton to get a go in the first team?

5/69 and 50* on Monday, and 117 and 2/38 yesterday.

Garton's batting has improved remarkably; he scored runs pre-season too. He's also seriously quick, if a little wayward. He'd certainly add something to the side but who would he replace? It's not going to be Ollie and they're not likely to drop an overseas player.

I think he'll get his chance when CJ toddles off for England

Lets see that tail wag this morning

Michael Burgess in this team I would guess, weird selection, down to bat at 8 on the scorecard.

Robinson 4 for 43

ALL out 224

Let the batting collapse begin

 

[Postman Pat]

I think we will lose three wickets before we get to 30.

..... make that 20....

Salt c Lees b Rushworth 2

3/1

 

[Titanic]

Bizarre cameo from Salt.

 

[Biscuit Barrel]

Just another 4 wickets to go until the batsmen come to the crease.

10 years ago this might have read Salt c Mustard b Onions 2

Pity it would have been too late for Cec Pepper to have been umpiring

Afternoon everyone. Durham niney-tew for four.

Can we not get rid of Bancroft? He's beginning to rub me up the wrong way.

N.B - I see Leicestereshire won the toss, inserted Worcs who are now 195-2 - how did we lose to that shower of shite?

Could it be that we are a deluge of shite?

 

[A1X]

38/2 Haines gone

 

[Pavilionaire]

Could it be that we are a deluge of shite?

Only in the 11-a-side version of the game. Make it 6-a-side with a smaller pitch and we'd be top of Div 1.

 

[Pavilionaire]

38/2 Haines gone

And Van Zyl. Now 39-3.

Looks like Wicketkeeper / Captain / Collapse Prevention Officer Brown will shortly be called upon, yet again...

 

[A1X]

39/3

Standing by this;

Can't wait to see how many wickets we've lost by the time we make 50 runs this week. I'm going 6.

 

[Titanic]

Bancroft seems to have glue on his hands. #sameoldaussies

39-3

To be fair, scoring just two runs would have been acceptable, for a 12 year-old Phil Salt.
