jimbo jones Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 Well, I hope it’s enough as 2 more wickets fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Git Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 (edited) Must be unplayable at the moment, we've lost the last four wickets for 14 runs and Dal has faced 20 deliveries for one run! Maybe swing and hope for the best and get 10 overs at them tonight? Edited September 7, 2022 by Grumpy Git Reggie Greenwood 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn’t turn it that much though. Probably it for the day. Maybe a slog for 20 mins in the morning and set them around 300 , weather permitting ? jimbo jones and Reggie Greenwood 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't know tbf - it's the kind of weather that arrives in concentrated pockets rather than broad sheets.

Eddie Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 23 minutes ago, jimbo jones said: I’d be tempted to declare but I don’t think we will. A tricky one. Nobody has been successful when attempting to attack the bowling all game - a 'sporting' wicket (if you are a batter, then decidedly unsporting if a ball has your name on it) with variable bounce varying between climbing off a good length and running along the floor. 20 more runs would be useful, but smacks of 'safety first'. The likelihood is that 3 wins from the last 3 games will see us promoted - better to go for it than spend the close season wondering 'what if...'.

jimbo jones Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 Interesting move to open the bowling with Potts instead of Conners, who has struggled with his opening spell all season. Potts goes for 12 in the over ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
