jimbo jones Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 Our overseas recruitment next season has to be focused on batting. It’s been so poor this season, with us relying on 1 or 2 digging us out of a hole. Sometimes that’s happened often it hasn’t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 Got to 200 with 5 overs left and seemed to want to try and start going big, needed up 206 all out. would have been better just batting through at the same pace as before… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anon Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 True, but they were well aware they were short of a defendable total. Hopefully, we can produce some mercurial bowling, but I suspect we'd have found 220/30 just as difficult to defend as 206. Really pleased for Guest and Moore, the latter being rather unlucky with his run out. Our middle order was a shambles, yet again. jimbo jones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anon Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 Beautiful over from Brown. Squeezed him with tight line and length, tempted him with the last ball and was duly rewarded with the edge. jimbo jones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you’d have said we’d have won 4 games at the start I’d have been happy…but if we get there having lost the final 3 games it will be very disappointing.

jimbo jones Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Ross Whiteley is actually playing for the Welsh Fire 😱😱 Donald isn’t playing for the Birmingham team, that’s 2 in a row. Would like to see him back for the game against Durham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Ram Posted August 11 Share Posted August 11 Just looking at todays scores, results look like going our way. I might be wrong, but a good win in our final game v Durham might just be enough…..might go down to run rate 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be interesting to see what damage being thrashed today has done to Hampshire’s run rate. I can’t quite work out if its better for Durham or Kent to win…. Funny how it comes down to the final game against Durham again - although not quite so straightforward as in the T20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny how it comes down to the final game against Durham again - although not quite so straightforward as in the T20 I think we want Durham to win. We need to beat them anyway so them going a point above us doesn’t change anything. Kent winning and an easier last game puts them in the mix as well. I think we will no doubt lose against Durham in any case making it a moot point but would be nice to be In with a shout. jimbo jones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for us, all depends if we can put some runs on the board. The way we folded against Durham in the “big game” in the T20 doesn't exactly inspire confidence.
