Northern Red Posted September 5, 2021 Report Share Posted September 5, 2021 15 wickets gone at Edgbaston in less than half a day's cricket. I'm sure the ECB will reach the only acceptable punishment, and deduct points from Somerset.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanterne Rouge Posted September 5, 2021 Report Share Posted September 5, 2021 We`re fighting back at least. Got them five down and still 8 behind. I expect Jack enjoyed getting Dom`s wicket! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanterne Rouge Posted September 6, 2021 Report Share Posted September 6, 2021 308 all out. A lead of 174. Another innings defeat I fear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ralphindevon Posted September 6, 2021 Report Share Posted September 6, 2021 Most seasons we have one bad day at the office that ultimately costs us the title but these 2 games are beyond farcical. What the hell is going on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tin Posted September 10, 2021 Report Share Posted September 10, 2021 While the Test being postponed is a scandal, we’ve had a belting day at Sale CC with boat loads of Bristolians. Great day today, we are ****** and off to Salford v Bradford tomorrow. Let’s up we deliver 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Red Posted September 12, 2021 Report Share Posted September 12, 2021 I've only seen small passages of play today but the wicket looks an absolute belter. 364-8 won't have been what Somerset were looking at when deciding to bowl, but a more confident batting line-up than ours would have been aiming for a few more.

Nas reckoned Lancs were just about over par. No doubt Somerset will allow the tail to put on another 100 as usual though so no need to worry unduly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 One bit of good news - James Hildreth became the third highest Somerset run scorer of all time today. He`s only behind Harold Gimblett and Tres. Well done Hildy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted September 14, 2021 Report Share Posted September 14, 2021 The vagaries of British weather never cease to amaze me, I am sat here on the Portishead waterfront looking across the channel, wondering how the hell they are managing to play cricket in Cardiff.
