[Cricket] T20 Finals Day 2024

[DJ NOBO]

Is Chris Jordan thr most overrated player in cricket ?

 

[DJ NOBO]

Little quiz question:

Who are the only two teams not to have appeared on finals day in the last ten years ?

Middlesex and Lancs ?

 

[Eeyore]

Middlesex and Lancs ?

Middlesex is one of them

 

[Bedsex]

Well done Somerset, let’s hope that Sussex complete their side of the bargain now.

 

[zeemeeuw]

Imagine playing your 1st ever T20 in a semi final with you team at 7-3 and performing like that to win the game, James Rew is a seriously talented young cricketer. Anyway off with my Somerset hat and on with my Sussex one.

 

[DJ NOBO]

Middlesex is one of them

Durham ?

 

[Scappa]

Leicestershire

 

[DJ NOBO]

Jofra on the balcony watching….after not being selected for England.
Hmmm.

 

[bhafc99]

Hmm, this isn’t a very promising start at all.

13-2 off 3.2 overs for the Sharks.

 

[Triggaaar]

Win the toss and choose to bat

 

[Bedsex]

I think it might be time to focus on the football instead!

 

[Steve in Japan]

Shifty start. Still, as Somerset demonstrated, we just need a BIG partnership

 

[vegster]

I'm out, Norcross is dreadful to listen to

 

[bhafc99]

Ah well, time to focus on the Albion, we’ve totally pished this away. 4 wickets down for less than 30 runs, at a pedestrian pace…

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Jeez. Awful

They look completely overwhelmed by the occasion.

 

[Eeyore]

That moment you know it's going to go wrong. HP pulls a six, I think 'He's going to loosen the pressure valve and try the same shot again. Careful.' He does, and is caught.

In fairness, Gloucs have bowled very, very well here.

 

[Eeyore]

For what it will be worth, it is criminal to be bowled out batting first in 20 ov. Sussex must just try and knock the ball about and pick up runs from all the overs available. No big risks. There isn't a lot of hope here, but at least try and make a game of it. Nothing wrong with smashing a bad ball, but don't try and make them bad.

EDIT: Robbo out after trying to straight drive a turning ball into the grandstand.... and Tymal follows

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Just when they might look like getting something defendable Robinson mistimed one

 

[DJ NOBO]

Jeez. Awful

They look completely overwhelmed by the occasion.

Exactly this.
And Gloucs have a solid attack.
And we’ve run out of luck.

 

[vegster]

Ah well
