Will Duckett be available for Notts?

No, he'll be playing for Trent Rockets in the 100 final.

Wouldn't have played anyway with the test coming up Patterson White might play

Notts should hopefully bring a few which will help the coffers. 

They will although don't forget they get a share of the gate money for a ko match.

Ahmed coming in is great as he goes in at 3 where we've had the revolving door and gives us 2 spin options meaning Rizvi isn't required.

 

I feel like the last slot is interesting...

 

Scriven is generally more reliable, but Mike could be ideal if quick runs are required, he and B.Green could rack up some big runs quickly in the last overs. Bowling wise he could bowl 4 overs for 40 runs or he could snag a couple key wickets.

 

I think as it's a knock out game I'd go Mike, though it feels risky even typing it!

Even more risky playing him

Scriven every time over Mike. Scriven averages 31 batting in one day cricket v Mike at 22. In one day cricket Mike has an economy of 7.3 and bowling average of 37, Scriven 5.6 and average of 33.

Yeah, will be. Sky only bother with the final.

 

Even then, that's usually on their YouTube too.

BBC were giving out score updates on Friday for the semi’s whereas sky just pretend it isn’t happening. Butcher started talking about it the other day and his co-comms just didn’t reply and he stopped haha

Usual lack of respect from Cricinfo

Par score could be anything knowing our pitch.

[Voll Blau]

Best XI we could have picked. Notts are strong but we'll win if everyone steps up.

 

Come on!

[Blueman1967]

Steady start

[Lionator]

Just need to not lose early wickets and cash in once the ball gets soft.

I was expecting early wickets to be fair. We just don’t need to be 15-3 like we have been in many games.

I get what you mean, just be nice if Eskinazi struck at a rate higher than Geoffrey Boycott

[James and his giant peach]

The stream keeps going on about Notts it's doing my head in. 

[Sunbury Fox]

One of the commentators keeps saying "beaten away" about every shot, even little pushes or prods! Makes Richard Rae seem like John Arlott!

Every single ball is beaten somewhere. Makes you appreciate just how good the best commentators are.

 

Beaten could be either a forward defensive prod or a six!

[HaroldBazBo]

This commentator is nauseating. "Lose YET another wicket".

 

We're 2 down.

 

Albeit what the hell was Eskinazi thinking.
