Derbyshire put on a very good score.

Great to see Hill with a ton. Always reliable for us.

Guy I work with is a Kent fan and they have had rubbish luck with injuries - Jas Singh (ankle), Matt Quinn (hamstring), Joey Evison (side strain), Ekansh Singh (side strain) all out on top of overseas find Keith Dudgeon, who took 7/36 in the first round of games only to be ruled out for the summer with a serious knee injury. Looks like on loan Jake Ball has now joined them on the treatment table.

Knew they had injuries but not to that extent. No doubt most of them will be fit and firing for our 2 games!

Cmon lads, keep our heads here, in a brilliant position, but don’t want to let them back into this. Need some runs down the order here, a 40 off from someone would be very useful. 
 

dont let them off the hook here, we have been the better team by far. Need to make it count!! Especially after how they sneaked away first game. Cmon foxes.

Need 200+ lead from this position

Jewell's been due but didn't expect him to go as big as he has.

 

That was great to watch from Ahmed and Hill. So much time still in this game, even if the weather comes. Hope we can put on an innings victory kind of score here.

[Ted Maul]

Maximum bonus points secured, another great day. 

 

Wish we'd have stuck them in as soon as we got to 450, but we've probably got a day and a half to bowl them out according to the current forecast. 

[Foxmeister]

This is a very welcome distraction. It’ll be a good listen on the way to Bournemouth tomorrow.

[Ted Maul]

Glamorgan all over Middlesex- think that would be 3 wins in a row for them, firmly in promotion contention.

 

Ideally, Derbyshire and Kent draw.

Glamorgan looked garbage at the start of the season 

[DezFox]

Well done foxes, unbelievable! Hope the rain doesn’t save them again. 

[Voll Blau]

I see Cox only got 41 today after only taking 3 catches yesterday.

Yeah they were miles off it against us. Most teams have looked miles off it against us though, to be fair. 

 

Being the better side in 7 consecutive games is unbelievable compared to where we were.

[STEVIE B]

Just looked at the statistics, Lancs bowled 30 wides & 14 no balls. That's a lot of easy runs.

That is atrocious

At least 20 (possibly 25) of those were wides which cleared the keeper and went for 4

I thought there must’ve been a few 4 wides. Not good either way.

Consistently took the pressure off & probably got us that last bonus point.

Definitely. On a side note, it’s great to see us doing so well in the 4 day game. 
l had lost interest in it, as we have been beyond poor recently, became almost laughable. 
Long may this run of excellent form continue. Even Aggers was waxing lyrically about us on the Test match comm on Thursday !

1 down, 9 to go

And another. Go on lads

[Lionator]

Just going to have to be patient here, these two are quality but they’ll have a ball with their name on eventually. Given their run rate, there’s zero chance of us losing. 

[Lionator]

Right on cue. 7 to go.
