jimbo jones Posted September 15, 2021 Author Share Posted September 15, 2021 Finally home day of the season, technically we could have a chance of winning, depending on what sort of target Kent decide to set, when they inevitably declare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted September 15, 2021 Author Share Posted September 15, 2021 2 wickets in 2 balls, 27-2 Du Plooy with a combined 0 runs from 3 balls in the match. Perhaps when you know a player doesn't like or want to bat at number 3, don’t keep sending him out there ?♂️ We’ve got to find a number 3 batsman from somewhere.

Steve Buckley’s Dog Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 Things have got so bad that Anuj Dal has become our best player. What a terrible season. The odds are completely stacked against us though aren’t they. I fear cricket has gone the same way as football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve even had them ourselves to a degree. A good run in the Bob Willis Trophy last year, T20 finals day the year before. Keeping hold of your best players, and even promising young players is getting harder and harder, with another competition meaning the big clubs want even bigger squads.

It's really rubbish isn't it, just plain greed nothing less by the rich clubs, (I'm assuming there is no limit on squad numbers)? jimbo jones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
