New Dazzler Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Very sad to hear from their official website that Gloucestershire spinner Tom Smith's wife passed away on Thursday of last week. Condolences, Tom is around 31, I'm guessing his wife was around the same age, and she leaves behind 2 young children. RIP. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichaelRobartes Posted August 30, 2018 Report Share Posted August 30, 2018 Stoneman 121no for Slurrey. After Jennings' bizarre dismissal in the Test what odds a recall for Stoneman in the last test? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichaelRobartes Posted August 30, 2018 Report Share Posted August 30, 2018 I think that Ramprakash and Hick are due another opportunity as well. 9 minutes ago, Tomarse said: Trott Bell and Tres next test 14 minutes ago, hodge said: Can we get Ian Bell to come back and bat 3 then? Bell actually isn't the worst shout I've ever heard, averaging 58 albeit in Division 2. I suppose England should be looking to the future, but he could hardly do worse.

Was actually a legit suggestion, good average this season and could bring some fight back. Allows Root to move back down to 4 as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ralphindevon Posted August 30, 2018 Report Share Posted August 30, 2018 A couple of late wickets gives us hope of securing a win but as is always the case, any team we want to do well against a rival inevitably capitulate. Looks like another runner's up trophy to add to the many others Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin phantom Posted August 31, 2018 Admin Report Share Posted August 31, 2018 12 hours ago, Tomarse said: Painful as it is to say Surrey look worthy winners - Morkel was a very good signing as was Stoneman. The form of Burns and Pope plus the Curran twins has meant they’re not just beating teams they’re routinely destroying them like today. Somerset might look to next season and think Brooks may do a similar job. What we need is to bulk the batting up - Tres/Hildy can’t go on forever. Sadly agree about Surrey We have to hope we can beat them at home and somewhere else they fall apart - or even going into September they get done by the weather to force a no result?

cidercity1987 Posted September 1, 2018 Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 (edited) FAO all you Bristolians that go to Taunton for your cricket. Do you also go to Bath for your Rugby? Somerset an all. Are you part of the reason why Bristol is so shit at top level sport? And before the North or South of the river gobblegook gets quoted at me, if we followed that in football then Rovers would be significantly bigger than us.

Lanterne Rouge Posted September 1, 2018 Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 1 hour ago, Tomarse said: Oh give it a rest. Ashton Gate traditionally was in Somerset. Not all of us live in Bristol. Is that clear enough for you? Most of the Somerset fans who post on this thread probably live in North Somerset, Somerset ot Banes. Why shouldn’t be support them? Should Glos fans suppprt Glos rugby as well? Ten years ago Somerset was the worst side in the country - bottom of div 2 so it’s not a Bristol thing. Or Devon.
