Kezman Posted June 18, 2016 Report Share Posted June 18, 2016 There's only one team in Bristol! One Team in Bristollllllllllllllllll! Still buzzing over that win last night, what a game and an absolute quality atmosphere! Wish the County Ground was rocking like that every T20 game. That last over win makes up for the disappointment of losing the one dayer in Taunton the other week, another game we really should have won. Rodders and Tye did a great job at the end seeing us home. Tye is a good all round player, his death bowling is quality and he can hit a ball. Running out of superlatives for Michael Klinger. 3 games this week, he's been Man of the Match in every one! Such a pleasure to watch, classy on the eye and has the brain to pace every inns he plays. Nothing phases the man at all! Australia selectors all need to take a long hard look at themselves. The man's record in Australia and in England for the last 3 seasons has been nothing short of immense. How he has not even picked up one Aussie cap is a crime! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great night (apart from the result) fantastic atmosphere, and considering the game did'nt look like going ahead at 6, it was a good effort from the ground staff. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waller and Jamie O four wickets each which begs two questions; Why didn`t Waller play v Glos? Why did Arafat bowl the last over and not Jamie?

It's because Maynard has some strange obsession with rotating the bowlers and resting at least one every game Arafat not in the team yesterday made a massive difference - Hants were a really poor T20 side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kings Head was towards the Dursley end of Uley, just before the corner where the road narrows before the brewery. It closed down quite a few years ago now. On my one appearance for Uley cricket club (out for a golden duck) we definitely went to the Crown afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old crown, that's it, about 15 years ago when I was working in Uley, apparently all the shenanigans was in one of the Sunday tabloids, the landlord was very talkative after a few ciders!!

I think it's my lucky away ground, always scored runs there for some reason. I'd love to know my overall batting average vs playing at Uley! 16 minutes ago, harrys said: The old crown, that's it, about 15 years ago when I was working in Uley, apparently all the shenanigans was in one of the Sunday tabloids, the landlord was very talkative after a few ciders!! I'll look into that mate, now you've mentioned tabloids it does ring a bell. I know the current landlord, might pop in for a pint, see if he's rekindled the 'local' feeling....!
