T20 Blast 2025

[Blenkinsop]

Another exceptional game from the Steelbacks. Thought we were dead and buried while Mousley and Latham were cruising along.

Another exceptional game from the Steelbacks. Thought we were dead and buried while Mousley and Latham were cruising along.

Great balance to the batting line-up with the talents of Vasconcelos, Breetzke, Broad & Zaib & the experience of Willey & Bopara.

Very chaseable to score to remain unbeaten.

Until tonight when Durham rolled into town and beat the unbeaten Steelbacks

we are such an up and down team in t20

Yep Derbyshire winning and Northants losing was not on the cards for me.

I dunno how Durham won that game after Northants powerplay with the bat.

I see young Pretorius absolutely smashed it for Hampshire. Think it was his first game..44 from 22 in a rain affected game.

Cork is insufferable as a commentator just stfu man

Cancelled Sky a while back but the blast commentators are usually the dregs, like 'Daggers'.

He’s been way over the top this evening

I think in his head , he’s trying to be new bumble

less is more corky

 

[chris.hinton]

Another poor performance from Worcester.

I see Warwickshire lost as well

I went to Chesterfield yesterday and it was rammed to the gills. I haven’t seen an outground so packed for years.

Seemed to be more from Yorkshire than Derbyshire.

A ploy to get more fans in (even if they are away fans) considering Chesterfield is basically Yorkshire!

No problem with that, for years Glamorgan used to play Lancashire at Colwyn Bay. Am sure there are other examples.

All this talk following "some of the best players in the world" getting home or back to the hotel at old Trafford at 4am and then playing again less than 12 hours later with two of them then getting injured. Are cricketers more or less likely to have hamstring problem if they played more than the odd T20 game? Play the game more often to get and keep fit surely?
