Doubt any conversation involving Wayne White speaking could be classed as a "debate".

Is Mulder available?

 

Mulder and Handscomb only scored 5 between them in the group game and we still 298 with 16 balls remaining

It’s his first time in England this week!

Just bought 4 tickets for me and the kids....Weather don't look too bad,so should be a good day!

[Mark 'expert' Lawrenson]

Goes without saying it’ll be a short boundary, with it being end of season I’d guarantee it’s an old used pitch which offer something for the spinners.

Mulder available if he is over his illness.

Be interesting to check the speed gun if Hull playes tommorrow. Richard Rae reckons late 80s I reckon late 70s early 80s

[Graceroad]

Scott Currie Inc in Hants squad and then back playing for us on Tuesday seems ridiculous.Bonus that that haven't Inc James Vince

Done a quick (not really counting properly) tot up of the greyed out seats around the ground and reckon it's about the 6-7,000 mark.

Any update on the attendance please? 

 

Surely you had nothing better to do today than recount.  

[Cakey]

Hants squad is pretty fair. As expected.

I may be getting confused with someone else but I think I heard he was capable of mid 80s and fancied being able to add a bit more as he develops.

The club have announced the world series t20 tournament  will be played at GR for 9 days starting on the 23rd of September featuring  past players from England Australia Pakistan sri Lanka and India. Could be a big moneyspiner  for the club if Tendulkar plays. Darren Maddy likely to be in the England side .Australia usually  Inc Brett Lee Shane Watson Brad Hodge etc.Hope its well supported 

[Cakey]

Looking at squad

 

Patel

Budinger

Hill

Ackerman

Mulder

Kimber

Swindells

Scriven

No the club have decided to stay loyal to the squad that's played throughout  the tournament Parky left out also

Rightly so too, Ackers can still do a job if it’s turning.

[Cakey]

I think the club have it right tbh

[MaidstoneFox]

I think it's ridiculous, we are shooting ourselves in the foot, not including Ahmed and Parkinson on the squad, Ramji is miles off their ability. Hampshire have included loads of players who didn't feature in the group stage and only came in for the knock-out stage. Fuller, Dawson, Wheal, Gubbins, Crane

Bang on. We've lost someone who would have been first name on the team sheet, so why shouldn't we pick someone who no doubt would have played most games if he'd been available?

Not true the likes of Crane and Dawson played in the group stages they are leaving out there best player Vince who missed the group stages

Dawson played about once didn't he, and Crane probably only played a handful
