Garbage 

[Lako42]

So many chances gone begging in the field. Could actually have been putting the pressure on them but we've dropped catches and missed stumping. 

 

Can't miss anything when you only set 130

Pitch seems to have been fine for Durham.

 

What a let down after Friday.

Really poor performance. Have to question Ackermans captaincy today as well. There spinner opened and bowled 2 overs 1-8 in the power play. Parkinson literally always opens the bowling and does a decent job and yet today he goes pace on early doors and the game was done after 1 over. Poor decision making, but not enough runs to play with anyway.

How does the qualification out of the 3 groups work? Top 2 from each go through and 2 other best 3rd placed finishers?

Spot on, although we might need to win all 3 games to have a chance of finishing and qualifying in 3rd now

Always will be and always has been too easy an excuse to blame the pitch.

Our pacers aren’t very good.

Taylor is gone, no real surprise as it’s the same as with any player we get who shows any remote promise when they play for us.

 

Will probably end up at Notts like every other half decent player that leaves.

[SemperEadem]

You can assume it's ended not great if they are not going to play him. Still chance to progress in the T20 so would have been preferentially to play our strongest team.

 

Is this a dick move by him? Swear he was seen a damaged goods before coming here.

Spent most of his time injured, good luck to him but can’t see his destination being Notts as some seem to believe.

Very much agree Notts have  lots of bowlers not sure they would want him.Be surprised it he gets many offers not set the world on fire this season and has a terrible injury record

[Mark 'expert' Lawrenson]

Klein to replace him tomorrow.....

[SemperEadem]

Not Notts but Northants, Taylor supposedly left us for.

[Cake]

Got to be honest. Ive seen flashes of brilliance but to be honest is he all that? He averages under 30 with the Bat over 30 with the ball and has been injured a hell of alot. 

 

Overrated in my opinion. 

 

He obviously doesnt want to play for us so fine. 

 

I think we have improved a bit this year. 

 

Not seen him do alot.

Not really just the fact Northants have been a better run club in the last few years hence they are able to offer  Taylor more money then we can afford atm 

[Cake]

Rob Newton released from Northants would improve our batting, why not have a look. 

 

Callum Haggert and Ivan Thomas to leave Kent both division 1 bowlers both improve our side. Have a look. Offer them just a year. 

 

Their records are all better than many of our players. Need youngsters but need some experience. 

To me those three should be top of our list. Experience but not ancient and improve the side but wont cost the earth

Ivan Thomas is a super shout. Nice bloke and really just needs regular cricket and I think he'd be great for us.

[Lako42]

Must win tonight against bottom of the table.

 

Perfect cricket weather forecast and every ball live on the stream.

Yes i spoke to him at that terrible Sainsbury's squeezed on the side of the ground. He was with Jason Gillespie. Few years ago. Very tall seemed nice. 

 

Got a great record. Stats are good and thats in division 1, kent are very strong now so doesnt play.

Bit of an injury concern but he'd immediately be our best bowler if he signed IMO.

 

And yeah that Sainsburys is terrible, but its very easy to go in and buy a few bottles of wine and then walk in to the ground. KCCC must wonder why the bar sales are so low.

Had a long lay off but i think been ok since? Just dont think he is picked? Give him a year and see how it goes
