[PILTDOWN MAN]

Great evening got back about 11

To the applause of a grateful nation.

Bollox to that.

Sussex 207-2 off 20 overs BBC Sport says around par think the commentators are from Essex.

 

[Ooh it’s a corner]

Essex 73-4 off 7 so they are deffo on track run rate wise - Robbo has 3 - even I reckon

 

[Ooh it’s a corner]

Adrian’s in good form - ‘he’s going to be caught, no it’s gone for 6’

 

[Ooh it’s a corner]

It’s a good watch on Youtube - this could be close - Carson has gone for 20 in his first over - Essex need 79 off 8 with 5 wickets left

 

[Si Gull]

Need to get one of these two out sharpish.

Pepper needs to be taken out.

Slipping away......

Poor discipline

 

[Si Gull]

19 off Coles. The game's gone.

 

[DJ NOBO]

Adrian : “I think it might be fair to say that Essex may be favourites now”
Everyone : “of course they’re favourites you idiot “

 

[Si Gull]

Boooo! Great innings from Pepper but some poor bowling helped. Didn't see that coming at 90-5.

 

[Papa Lazarou]

Pepper was very leg side and we kept bowling middle and leg.

 

[Eeyore]

Adrian : “I think it might be fair to say that Essex may be favourites now”
Everyone : “of course they’re favourites you idiot “

 

[DJ NOBO]

That’s a generous view considering he’s in the highly coveted position of getting paid to watch cricket.
So many mistakes every game. Hell, every over.
Disappointing today but maybe not a bad thing in the greater scheme of things. You learn from your defeats.
We were 20 short and our back up bowlers were taken to the cleaners.

 

[Lincolnshire Seagull]

Your continuing support and defence of him are commendable, BL. Unfortunately many of us find his commentary style and lack of knowledge quite hard to stomach - he is presumably getting paid to do what seems a rather nice job. But I guess the answer is in the mute button.

 

[Goldstone Guy]

120 off 53 balls Michael Pepper would make a tasty opening partnership with Phil Salt.
