Coppello Posted September 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2019 Notable mention to Darren Stevens. Kent were 39-5 when he entered the fray and he's currently 191 not out off 188 balls. 140 of those were scored in the last session Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted some months ago, wondering whether, following the departure of Ali, we might get Tres back for his 400 runs. Obviously romantic, but.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted September 16, 2019 Report Share Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) 221ao Worcestershire- not bad. Currently ie in play we're in 3rd and 2 points off Northants, 10 ahead of Durham, 11 ahead of Sussex and 23 (though that'll imminently become 22) ahead of Glamorgan. Given 2nd and 3rd go up, there's grounds for cautious optimism at this stage. Edited September 16, 2019 by Mr Popodopolous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or Eddie Byrom but why the hell we would pay out money to bring in someone with an average record to play I shall never know. It even seems unfair on him to be expected to score runs in these circumstances Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PHILINFRANCE Posted September 16, 2019 Report Share Posted September 16, 2019 Highest First Class score for Darren Stevens Yorks v Kent 356-5 A thick inside edge off Tim Bresnan moves Darren Stevens on to 207. Patterson bowls. Billings gets a single to get Stevens back on strike. Driven down the ground for four! Darren Stevens has 211! It's his highest ever score for Kent and the highest ever score for Kent against Yorkshire! Well Done Darren - an old stalwart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is this guy and why is he playing? Only known for calling Root a gayboy. He is a genuine all rounder (totally crap at everything). With no wickets and conceding a bucketful of runs, his total of 3 runs at an average of 1.5 means his batting is slightly better than his bowling. I do not know if he had any commitments (so not sure if this would have been possible), but surely they could have kept AJ Tye for a few weeks of red ball cricket. Or actually any one of us would have done better! Not to mention what were they thinking about signing a player who has been suspended due to homophobic abuse!

Scoring pretty quickly so it's hard to tell if they have thrown away wickets or if it's one of those odd pitches that's good for batting and bowling- from 71/5 it's perhaps a bit much. From 153/5 though, yeah gotta be fairly happy? If it's one of those then if we bat fairly steadily maybe we can make a reasonable score. One did bring a fairly quick few. 51 for 2 be great if we had some batters ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lancs have lost Glenn Maxwell for the last 2 games as he's gone home to prepare for the start of their domestic season, so presumably the other Aussies playing county cricket are in the same boat. If we'd got to T20 finals day, we'd have had to do without both Maxwell and Faulkner because of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three more wickets down already. 57/5 as I type - some pretty poor shots it has to be said, particularly Tom Banton who appeared to be still in 20/20 mode.

Mr Popodopolous Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 Looks like some lively wickets around the country, but then again doubtless variable overhead conditions, desperation etc. As it stands we're 110/4 which is alright, considering some of the scores around! Steady? Sussex are 145/6 at Derbyshire- the latter were 138ao! Northants made 217 which puts Durham into the driving seat? Durham 52/6! If those 2 can take points off and damage each other all good. Glamorgan will likely make 350 but maybe not 400, they're 347/6 v Leicestershire. Nothing riding on it but Lancs 259ao and Middlesex 75/6. Confirmed champions Lancashire as expected!

PHILINFRANCE Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 (edited) The weather in Southampton is supposed to improve this afternoon - excellent batting conditions for Hampshire? This Abbott bloke is pretty good, though: 6/11 off 11 overs with 8 maidens. 59/7 now, although we have avoided the follow-on.
