Great work Somerset. Hope they can make it over the top of Surrey. Seemed to me like Surrey were happy with a draw all game - much lower run rate than Somerset - and perhaps that was to Surrey’s detriment.

Play for a draw, and 9 times out of 10, the best you’re gonna get is a draw!

I watched a fair bit of the Somerset / Surrey match on the stream and was really impressed with Vaughan. His control was excellent and he actually turns it.

 

[Jarquis]

Archie for England.

 

[chris.hinton]

Done more than Josh Hull

The NCCA Twenty20 finals day was all abandoned without a ball being bowled

Semi finals were settled by a "Coin Toss"

Staffordshire beat Berkshire
Cumbria beat Oxfordshire

The Final between Staffordshire & Cumbria couldn't get started. No Trophy would be rewarded for this in 2024.

Weather was absolutely horrific in these parts

Bizarrely, the current England spin incumbent is likely to be third choice spinner for his county come start of next season.

This is a very valid point, how does Bashir get a game for Somerset next season? His best chance might be Leach usurping him as England's number 1 again, which could easily happen this Winter. Vaughan will clearly play as an all rounder - is he an opener or is he filling in for this round of matches?

There was never any chance of play last Sunday in Chester. Waste of everyone's time.

Watched a few overs of it. Leach was bowling beautifully. Great to see.

I don't think England management will fancy Leach in England unless of course they play on pitches that will deteriorate rather rapidly. Given that India are coming next summer, that is highly unlikely, nay suicidal to even be thinking that would be the way to go in terms of pitch preparation.

 

[Spikey]

Surrey should be ashamed of themselves

their late collapse was bad too

 

[Jarquis]

It was glorious.

As I glanced at this I thought for a second Lancs had signed him

 

[chris.hinton]

Worcestershire sign Tom Hinley for the 2025 season,

 

[tony p]

Cricketers have always done this

Doesn't make it right.
Somerset will miss him tomorrow.

The County website may be trumpetting their cricket academy (are they desperately trying to say everything is looking good for the club's future? that they are doing something right??) but Rob Lord's determination and success seems to have passed most people by. He left the Lancashire Academy in 2019.

Almost a quarter of the graduates to County Cricket of the Club's academy never made the Lancashire first team.
