Did I hear them say we're going to be the live T20 game Sunday night? 

Not that I have seen it advertised anywhere but our game against Kent is the live T20 game Sunday night 

Must remember to behave now TV cameras are there

I couldn't understand how a Somerset player was given out for being caught off a wide yet a Kent player misses and the wide is given.

It’s quite simple really ?.

Dickson hit the ball, was caught and so given out, whereas the Kent player didn’t hit the ball, so wasn’t given out caught.

In all seriousness, you can be given out caught off a wide ball.

I often wonder why players stretch as far as they can to get a slight touch and perhaps score a run, when if they had just left it, particularly down the leg side, their team would be awarded a run in any case.

He was very complementary post match 

I remember when he was a late emergency call up for England in Adelaide and was in Queensland at the time. It was during the Covid bubble times and he had to drive down on his own. He put a tracker in his car so TMS could see where he was and phoned in regularly to comment on his progress. It was very funny and he came over as a real nice bloke.

There was one later on when Kent kept claiming for a wide and the umpire ignored them! (Ian Backwell?).

The one where they appealed for caught behind but turned down was deffo a wide. But wouldn’t have made any difference.

As soon as a batsman hits a ball it can’t be a wide, so there’s no such thing as caught off a wide.
