    The Ashes (NOT!) -England v Australia at the Ring of Fire, Dubai- 10/30 Saturday (N), 26th Match, Group 1

    The way they played today the Aussies would have struggled to defend 225 let alone 125

    I see Malan has come into bat. Did he field earlier, as I don't recall him getting a mention.

    Simmons bats for 12 overs, and Russell for a maximum of 3 What a waste

    South Africa vs West Indies at Dubai: Matchday thread; Early Game Tue 26/10

    South Africa vs West Indies at Dubai: Matchday thread; Early Game Tue 26/10

    So Simmons has been in for 12 overs and scored 15 singles off of 32 balls. Classic. Whats the lowest score by an opening batsman that ended the innings not out?

    Samit Patel wasn't one of the 11 men to bat in the first Notts innings, but he is in at number 6 in the second innings. How does that work?

    **Official** County Cricket 2018

    Just a shame that some of the top order can't score a few more. Still a bit of a change in the pitch at Taunton. After the first 2 games there were calls for the pitch inspector to make a visit, and today we are 472 - 9. I thought there was something up when they picked Leach and Best in the...
