Were loose

 

[vegster]

Usual story, the door to the middle order wide open as expected, I suppose 47 for the first wicket is a slight improvement but can't see us digging in and scoring more than 250. Pants will rattle up 350+ and we will probably lose by an innings or be bowled out for cheap chasing 340 or thereabouts as usual.

Nothing to see here, keep moving.

Debut for Hudson - Prentice in for Jordan

Presume Jordan is playing for England, Hope H-P can bat a bit, like the last double-barrelled medium fast we had!

 

[Don Tmatter]

Are the left armers, Liddle & Hatchett injured?

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

Bloody ell I'm off to walk the dog

 

[jakarta]

Sh*t Sticks! Will be lucky to get 250 now.....

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

Are the left armers, Liddle & Hatchett injured?

Yes, as is Anyone, Shazad and Ziadi

 

[Gwylan]

Wright gone too

Time for the real batters to have a go

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

Has anyone told them its a 4 day game and not a 50 over - they may think its just a 4 over dash from here

Presume Jordan is playing for England, Hope H-P can bat a bit, like the last double-barrelled medium fast we had!

H-P used to play for our local club as a colt (his father is still head coach or something) and was more of a batsman than bowler.

2, yes 2 whole batting points.. It's in the bag.
