Hate these, traditionally small county that got a sniff of the big stuff through ECB investment in their rubbish bowl stadium.

He’s an international standard bowler so no surprise

Turner was always going to be too good for us. Shame but it is what it is.

Must be going for a pinch hitter role

They’re going to do well to get 300 here. Great comeback.

It depends. If you go hard at the start you risk losing wickets, we’re likely to be chasing at 6 an over which isn’t that much. Therefore it’s important to keep up with the rate but not at the expense of wickets. As we saw on Sunday Glamorgan were behind the rate and losing wickets meaning they didn’t have anything to fall back on at the end.

Er we got relegated and the only thing that changed was the club doubling down on their methods.

He always get out playing stupid shots. When he gets his head down and plays with aggression but contained, he does well. His hundreds have come at 90-105SR. It’s why he can’t pull it off in other forms. His big hitting isn’t good enough for t20 and he’s not calm enough for CC.

Budinger is averaging 51 in this competition this season

Everyone expressed their frustration on Twitter but Jarvis just batted them all back. I am starting to wonder whether we’re the crash test dummy for the ECB to put all county cricket behind a paywall

What’s the pitch like? I think 300 sounds like par but I can’t back us to chase that.

From what I’ve noticed in the past, the better bet is Pakistani and Afghan fans on the gate. Umar Akmal brought more people through the gates than Rahane or any other Indian player that we’ve previously had. As did Shakib.

We need a source. who shot JR?

This takes me back to the person that posted the James lyrics. ”If I hadn’t seen such riches I could live with being poor”

Come on Stevie boy, don’t let us down today.

A deceased John Elsom would still get more deals done than Rudkin.

Football is a mental health treatment for a lot of people in this country. It gives them a sense of belonging, a reason to look forward to the weekend, a distraction when other personal stuff is going to crap! It IS important and people should embrace that!

the pitch is fine, the conditions are very bowler friendly so I’m guessing it’s very humid(?) but it’s mainly been terrible batting.

Crikey Wiaan Mulder is tearing through the windies here.

He would be well within his rights to do that as well. Nobody would complain.

Bring back John Elsom

I thought Ipswich would be dead certs for relegation as Morsy and Luongo would just get overrun each week. So they’ve dealt with it and they’re going to be fine.

Think Barbados is the only place that gets decent crowds these days, and that’s probably as it’s the most accessible to foreigners.

It’s just frustrating how you have to tow one specific line on certain threads.

Ffs! I’m not a pro Russian bot, I just thought it was interesting that this news has been released while the Kursk offensive is ongoing. I thought maybe it was a good time to release it while people are distracted which is wise
