Random question. Has it been stated that Abbas won't play t20?

It makes no sense him not playing as he’ll be hanging around for 6 weeks, probably only contracted for red ball cricket though.

[Mark 'expert' Lawrenson]

I suppose it’s possible Ali could play T20 and he can turn his arm over

Don't but he will be used already told he's being released at the end of the season.Ackers Parkinson and Lilley will be the spinners

Javid has been in for 9 overs opening for the 2nds and scored 18 in a T20.

Get him in!

[everton carr]

Chris Tavare would be proud of that effort

[All foxed out]

How have we gone from 123-2 to 151-6 so quickly ... batting is not good enough 

[MaidstoneFox]

Cosgrove not playing today. Did he do his back in bending down to pick up a pie?

At least Tavare could score when he wanted to!

 

Speaking of which 250 today in 94 overs. Either good bowling, difficult track or we are just struggling on any service!

Well he certainly didn't do it sprinting round the field. Touch his toes, he cant see them!

 

Love Cossie really do but he could male some effort with his fitness.

Seconds hit 199 in the second of the T20 matches today, and won the game!

Adil Ali opened and scored a rapid 50, not sure about the others. Northants had a lad called Soul who was out having scored 110 out of the total at the time of approx 150

[everton carr]

197-2 again so dissapointing Tom Smith a journeyman with a career average of 22 over a long career no doubt going to sore a century today

County fought back well today, need to polish off the other 4 wickets in the morning and keep their lead down below 60.

Tom Sole, another Scottish cricketer.

 

The rate Dieter Klein scored in those games, it might be worth playing him as a pinch-hitter.

Tom Sole looked very good.

Darren Stevens joins Derby on lan for the T20 would have been a great signing for a s

Yeah thats a blow.

Huge respect to Parky for playing yesterday after his Mum died suddenly and unexpectedly on Monday night. A very brave young man.

Agreed really difficult for him

252 behind on 1st innings Gloucs probably 2nd worse county side doubled our 1st innings score good job we won the toss

[Sunbury Fox]

After promising signs last season we seem to have regressed massively this season. How many times are we going to allow teams off the hook? Letting a pretty average Glos team get over 500 after being 270-6 is the latest example, following the debacle v Durham last week.
