slartibartfast Posted July 4, 2015 Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 RedDave is currently on holiday and will reply to your message on his return. In the meantime please feel free to go **** yourself. OOOOOH Where you gone, Bournemouth ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbored Posted July 4, 2015 Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 He's been poor for the last two seasons in T20. He's just not quite got it anymore. However in first class games he's been excellent. Ideally would like him to concentrate on that but no idea who's around to captain the one day/T20 stuff.. Hildy isn't exactly good in T20 either Thomas was resigned by Perth Scorchers last winter and they won the BBL. He wasn't signed for his batting..... But...you're right. He hasn't been quite so effective in T20 this summer. He's no spring chicken either so maybe the wear and tear on his body are catching up with him. Fast bowling is a gruelling business. Lots of them retire earlier than Thomas with injuries. Harris the Aussie seamer has just retired with a long standing knee injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chipdawg Posted July 6, 2015 Report Share Posted July 6, 2015 Jeeesus, just give the Yorkies the title now and everyone else can fight it out for 2nd place downwards. I'm just annoyed we didn't bowl them out out for low enough to make them follow on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calculus Posted July 6, 2015 Report Share Posted July 6, 2015 Jeeesus, just give the Yorkies the title now and everyone else can fight it out for 2nd place downwards. Am very happy to say that I think Yorkshire will win a few titles with their current team (obviously I'm an exile). Just imagine how well they'll do with all their England players available. That said, I went to see them for the 3rd day at Taunton this year. Somerset put on 175 in the 1 hour and 45 minutes of the morning session. The Overtons were fantastic and the attack was made to look very ordinary, Adil in particular looked awful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PHILINFRANCE Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Pleasing to see not least for the franchise nonsense as presumably they'd be in the counties culled for it. Somersets wankathon of having Gayle play three matches has worked. Oh. But he is coming back for the finals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHILINFRANCE Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 To commentate for Sky? A reasonable day at Middlesex amongst all the Ashes hysteria. A very good day, in fact, as young Lewis Gregory seems to have found his bowling form again (following on from his fine batting performance against Sussex).

PHILINFRANCE Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 He wouldn't have come back anyhow - he's having an operation on his back and out for 3-4 months. Of course, and I tend to suspect this (his possible return for the knock-out stages) was something of a PR attempt by the powers that be in Taunton. I believe that CG is playing a charity match prior to his operation so, theoretically, might have been able to delay his op, but given he left one match early from his contract (and missed the first scheduled game due to his Indian commitments) I am not sure how keen he was to return in any event.

Not a bad season when you realise the players your lot have lost to England. Still, rather you than Middlesex, or, heaven forbid, Warwickshire Is the undeniable truth really 'propaganda'?! We haven't been able to field our strongest 11 all season, but actually there's vast experience in the squad- Bresnan, Plunkett, Sidebottom and Rashid with the ball, plus Bairstow/Ballance have been available all season between them, not to mention Maxwell, Williamson and Finch when they've been around. Most exciting are the young lads coming through; Fisher is going to be unbelievable in a couple of years, 17 years old and bowling 85mph+. Rhodes is going to be very good too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fisher isn't bad with the bat either, a genuine modern cricketer. If he keeps developing he'll be scarily good in a couple of years, should be topping 90mph within a couple of seasons hopefully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
