If we wasn't chasing the bonus point he was certain of a century, he looked completely untroubled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 No play in the second XI game yesterdayy, finally got going this afternoon, Lakmal, Aitchison, Watt, Dal, Guest, Came, & Reece all playing. Guest keeping his form going with 85, none of Came, Reece, or Dal troubling the scorers much. More interested in the bowlers getting on to be honest.

Barb Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Went on the website to look at tickets and noticed that they are showing highlights from the seconds game against Notts. Giving them a right thrashing so far and Lakmal with 4 wickets in 9 overs must be good news. Jimbo Ram and jimbo jones 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 Seconds need 17 runs to win after making Notts follow on and bowling them out twice. Excellent 😀 Only 4 overs for Lakmal. Down enough work in the first innings... 9 overs for Scrimshaw, he got a wicket in each innings with fast balls into the ribs drawing an edge...ive said it many times, but if he can physically get through 4 days of cricket, he'd make such a difference to the bowling attack.

jimbo jones Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 (edited) All 3 of last weeks games finished as draws, which means we currently sit bottom of the table, but also means no team has more than 1 win. Shaping up to be a competitive year, with little separating the teams. Edited April 24, 2023 by jimbo jones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Squad for Durham. Still no Lakmal, apparently has a groin issue. Dal is out with a side strain. Thomson in the squad after playing well for the seconds, and Reece back involved. I would think Reece replaces Dal as the only change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Ram Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 Another very disappointing start, other than Chappell, our bowlers are getting hit around the ground 🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was interesting listening to Marcus North of commentary talk about the change in mindset to be aggressive at the start of the innings and how the bowlers need to change their mindset accordingly. Wickets are the only way to slow things down, and we've seen that once Lees got out here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 282-6 at tea I was away from the game for most of that big partnership. Ollie Robinson leading the way for Durham with that century. He's had a great start to the season... I've noticed as he’s the wicketkeeper in my fantasy cricket team. Can we finish a team off for once? Bowling them out for anything under 350 would be a win after they won the toss and elected to bat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
