Announcement on the clubs Facebook page this morning. Basically had the same reaction, looking at his record there’s nothing to suggest he can even give it a bit of a slog down the innings either.

I realise we have signed Macleod, the Scottish guy who got the runs v England but we are crying out for a big hitter at the top of the innings. So disappointing to hear this....what do you think the line up is going to be for 20/20? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Forgot about Riaz, don’t think he stays for the whole thing though. godleman critchely Macleod madsen C Hughes Slater A Hughes/Reece (depending on fitness) wilson viljoen Riaz Ferguson dont see the need for 4 pace bowlers, load the batting ?

Can he score quickly enough for T20 though? If so, he can open instead of Godleman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wondering this, can’t recall what he’s been like in t20s, he’s played 6 games averaging 30 which isn’t bad, don’t know the strike rate though.

Racking my brain... didn't Slater make a couple of big hundreds in the 50 over competition this year? Sod it, let's drop Godleman ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Looks like this will definitely be over today, Critchley 61no saving it from being a complete embarrassment. Maybe if Be can somehow get a 150 lead, we might be able to put them under a bit of pressure.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Critchley batted so well and really deserved three figures, but what Hardus Viljoen was doing having an almighty waft the second ball he faced and getting caught at long on when it was essential he at least hung around I just don't know. As far as the rest were concerned, Mohammed Abbas was just too good for them. Also, I had a 'touch of the sun', and still feel a bit rough.

jimbo jones Posted June 28, 2018 Share Posted June 28, 2018 It seems to be 1 player has a good knock, and gets bugger all support at the moment. It would be nice if 2 or 3 could do it and we posted a big score for a chance.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
