Biggest advantage of loans is they are sent back if unfit so no cost then. Goldsworthy here until the end of the blast at least think it may until the end of the one day stuff?
-
Batted well I'd say. May have evened out a tad but not thst much
-
I mean wasn't here yesterday but here today and this pitch isn't great. Bounce is different each ball keeper has stood in a different spit each ball. Overheads helping also. Very unlike a grace road pitch. Set the 275 if we can

Wish kimber would forget about playing for time or defencive shots. Has hands as hard as diamonds and everything squirts towards slips or gully. Could have been out 5 times before he was out yesterday. Just give him license even if he gets 20 or so. Not a critic after last week just an observation, send him in at 7 and have a go
-
Would note that since I moaned about Cox he has pulled his finger out big time kept really well and I'd batting with more confidence. Fair play
-
OK we lost buy that's just incredible. Loved it Even in a loss alot to be admired. Cox got out and after that I never fancied us but what an effort. Again a few years ago we lose that by sn innings. Hope Kimber kicks on but he is defo a number 6 or 7 not 3. Magic knock If we had say 5 new bowlers we could really do something 😆

This is like a side from a few years ago. Generally improved in all formats but this is a real throwback 11 and a result to match. No thought gone into this side really, full of players who can neither really bat or bowl quite well enough so end up being all rounders. Could have rested Mike and Hull or at least one of them and played Swindells or Evans or even both. Still had 5 bowlers.
-
I'd have played them both in this match. Playing at least one to many bowlers. Ridiculous selection. Like we've pulled the batting order out of a hat.
-
Terrible last 5 overs from foxes. Mulder is the overseas pro. Gets 4 then holds out, after that it's headless chicken stuff. However it's a point. I'd have taken that at the break. Patel was a different class
-
Not quite sure why we had secret squirrel for three months but there you go.
-
Hull has put on about 7 or 8 mph in a season. If that speed gun was right. May explain why the batsmen seem to be so rushed. I

It's a nice ground also. Decent crowd it only holds about 4k now. Food and beer was way to pricey though. More than Wembly or Twickenham. The ticket was as you say about what you'd expect I guess.
-
I paid 32 quid at Canterbury to see Kent. My son lives there so we went. 64 quid for two tickets. Jesus Alot there though. 14 quid for a Thai curry!! So yep I appreciate our prices
-
Ha ha Yep. Shit ones at that when I first started playing. Two in the entire team and two sets of pads. Even shite players turn up with full kit now.
-
Getting quicker. Quicker than Potts last night we'll seemed it on TV. Early mid 80s? He will get quicker once he is fully grown etc. Only 19. I'd say 83 to 85 ish. Never any guns when we play
-
Needs to improve obviously. Barely played though. Hopefully have a decent run with the new ball when it resumes. He may decide if he keeps on picking up niggles that white ball cricket is enough. He is also taller than billed I'm 6ft 5 and Currie who was with him is about my height so tall but Hull towered over us two. I'd say he is 6ft 8 or 9 tbh Nice kid. Very approachable
-
Pathetic this tbh. They have no idea what a good score was and ended up losing their way. 160 be a decent score but this is nowhere
-
Admittedly holidaying in Italy but it looks freezing there. Wooly hats and gloves jesus.
-
I was hoping it was but don't think.it is? Hope I'm wrong.

It's not given very often but he didn't play a shot lifted his bat. Something that is just given now without thought. I'd like to see more of it. But the umpiring was a bit odd. Also one of their seamers bowled two beamers one of which he was warned for the other no warning but given as a no ball bit weird that.
-
Reifer is a good player als really classy he looked. Raymond who I think may be his uncle was a club pro at my club about 20 years ago. He was to good at that level.
-
Gives Swindells a good run out.
-
He is a good keeper. Don't know about a god. He had a bad game or two. His batting is weaker. Let's see if he can rectify the situation
-
Good point yeah. Not sure on that
