Unless there's been a huge change in conditions today, you do have wonder what on earth Surrey's bowlers were doing whilst Yorkshire helped themselves to 486. Because that's been the story of our season so far, hardly ever looking like bowling sides out for under 400. And if we do somehow take 5 for not too many, not being able to finish the job against the lower order.Surrey now in a deep hole against Yorkshire. Hill and Revis getting the ball to hoop around.
Sibley standing firm against the onslaught.LOL Harry Brook is now tearing through the Surrey batting line-up.
I went on Saturday and for all that it was billed as a festival, the whole set up seemed somewhat slapdash. The main scoreboard did not work properly and all of the scoreboards were very small and hard to read. The catering options were also rather paltry.Seems like no play at Beckenham because the cover leaked the overnight rain.
Jamie Porter's 50 bailing them out!Apart from Critchley none of the Essex batsmen look in good form, but they keep scrambling enough runs to keep their bowlers in it, and they have an exceptional county attack.
Mulder seems to be finding form as well but has run out of partners a couple of times.Jamie Porter's 50 bailing them out!
It's actually a pretty deep batting line up, but there's perhaps a reasonable chance that Elgar and Westley are now on the slope of diminishing returns (despite scoring against Surrey).Mulder seems to be finding form as well but has run out of partners a couple of times.
I'd probably spend an hour sobbing under a cold shower if that happened to me.
probably ask to join Lancs early on loan for a change of scene.I'd probably spend an hour sobbing under a cold shower if that happened to me.
Keeping my fingers crossed for no further play at Taunton......Looks like weather stopping a few sides forcing result round the country.
