I refused to believe until it came down to 10 to get- not that we'd lose but cautious etc...we do seem to love the late drama, similar feeling to the Leicestershire win though that was different in size etc. You were quite right @Super you called it early that the win was on- I refused to believe until late on of course... What I should add too, not only the 2 late wins chasing but winning by 13 runs when it looked unlikely v Worcestershire- what a run! Somerset too found a way to win and really pulled it out of the bag well. Hope they win the title and we get top 3- next season West Country derby. Also brilliant news for Bristol, Glos CC, and the West Country cricket scene in general is that England play Australia in the 3rd ODI in July 2020 in Bristol. https://www.gloscricket.co.uk/news/england-v-australia-odi-2020-register-your-interest-for-the-ballot/ Full list of next years England men's internationals were posted on the "International Cricket" thread.

I had a feeling that we had a brief stint in Division1, found this on Wiki:- 2 divisions since 2000 (2000–2003 D2, 2003–2005 D1, 2006– D2) Division 2 – 2003 – 3rd – promoted to Division 1, 2005 – relegated to Division 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully the first of two local derby victories for Somerset this weekend I'll be there in the "home" end, well in front of the flats, hoping to catch a few from Michael "Maxi" Klinger in what well may be his last appearance in Bristol (unless we can squeeze into the top 2!). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ralphindevon Posted August 23, 2019 Report Share Posted August 23, 2019 Why do we pay good money to have Taylor get hit around the ground very week. Why not Bess, Van Meekeren, Joverton, Davey, Leach when he's not on test duty etc etc. All of whom are squad players anyway? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I don't think he's terrible, but an overseas signing has to be quite a bit better than what you've already got in that position. He clearly isn't and we knew he wasn't before we signed him this season. , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
