In the end we got off to a flyer. Fletcher should play instead of Reece to try and bolster the middle order. Donald and Lloyd should have been the opening for every game (apart from the couple Donald missed). rammieib 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 (edited) Had a look at the remaining games this week and if - yes its a big if - we can do our bit we have a good chance. Our run rate is still only second to Lancashire and Durham of the teams chasing a top 4 place. Northants finish by playing Birmingham and Lancashire, Leicestershire play Birmingham, and Durham play us. Unfortunately, Yorkshire’s last game is against Notts who appear to have completely thrown the towel in with team selection and performance. The big thing is going to New Road and getting a win. I've watched a fair bit of Worcestershire's last 2 games where they beat Birmingham and put 205 on the board against Yorkshire. They looked better than their position in the table suggests. The pessimist in me thinks we lose on Thursday and then beat Durham in a dead rubber on the Friday 😕 Edited July 15 by jimbo jones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 Same 15 man squad as all the recent ones for today's must win game at Worcester. Fletcher should come in either for Reece or Thomson. Jimbo Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 (edited) David Griffin announces on “X” that Cam Fletcher becomes only the third foreign wicketkeeper in the team's history. A couple of minutes later, the team is announced with no Fletcher in it 🤣 Donald to wicket keep, with Wagstaff in for Guest.

No, but when was the last time he kept wicket? I don't think he's done it much for years. Sloppy fielding from Whiteley, probably gifted them 20 runs in this innings 😕 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can't chase 170 against this inexperienced bowling attack we don't deserve to be anywhere near the quarter finals… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not 100% sure, Fletcher was supposed to be wicketkeeper, but then dropped out as not fit to play at the last minute. If Guest was fit to play it would have made sense to bring him back in at that point 🤷♂️ Donald hits 3 consecutive 4’s and then backs miles outside of leg swipes at one and gets bowled 🤦♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
