    English Domestic Season 2023

    When was the last time a team had three TOM'S as the top 3 in the order.? Sussex have TOM Haines & TOM Clark opening, with TOM Alsop at number 3.

    Jack Leach out of the Ashes

    Delighted, we will smash him all over the park. Just shows the wonderful depth of English spin bowlers that they get a guy who basically said he found the Test Format "Really difficult to get into" when he retired.:laughing:

    English Domestic Season 2023

    I would say it's not a FC match, 3 or 4 Irish players in the Essex team, captained by Nick Browne , the only player who I actually know. (poor bugger, he needs to play some cricket I guess as the Blast stuff won't give him a game for about a month) Hopefuly Essex aren't charging an entrance fee...

    I see Essex are playing Ireland in a three day game at Chelmsford starting on May 26th (For Ireland's Test warm up) Does anyone know if this match has First Class status.?

    Stars consider quitting England or county contracts for IPL deals

    If viewing figures were particularly huge in certain markets, countries, age groups, we would certainly hear about it for sure. There must be much data available on it, as we can have data on IPL/other T20 matches on a left handed batter hitting the fourth ball of the seventh over through the...

    Compton, 29no at lunch. Kent 4 down, would really struggle without him.

    English Domestic Season 2023

    Ben Compton showing that he is probably the best defensive player in County Cricket. Excellent technique, has the ability to bat time, never seems worried if he is scoreless for a period of time, just very old school, great too see someone who can just bat.

    English Domestic Season 2023

    Both teams get 8 pts for the abandonement. Thats the equivalent of scoring 450 runs (5 bonus points) & taking 9-10 wkts (3 bonus points) in 110 overs,(Extremely difficult to do) and losing the match. I reckon 8 points is too many for a complete washout, maybe 5 at best, wouldn't be surprised...

    English Domestic Season 2023

    Day 2 has already been abandoned at Bristol already, about 90 minutes before any play would have started. Could well be a complete washout.

    English Domestic Season 2023

    In another time, Ben Brown might have played for England, a fine keeper who averages 40 with the bat in FC cricket, almost 10,000 runs, pretty stiff.

    Glamorgan don't have a game, they and Sussex not playing, why after one match they aren't, I haven't a clue.

    English Domestic Season 2023

    Play already abandoned for the day at Bristol between Glos & Yorkshire. (Well over an hour before play was due to start) Weather meant to be worse tomorrow, may be little play at all there.

    *Official* Women's Cricket discussion thread

    Great to see, Nic is one of my favourite players, although 2-0-32-1 wasn't so good, but her team won anyway.

    Cricketers who should have played a certain format in international cricket , but for some reason were never picked ?

    Ali Brown of Surrey should have played Test Cricket for England back in the day. Almost 17,000 runs @43 with 47 centuries, and most of them scored at a fast rate, his first 3 FC centuries of his career in 1992 came off 79, 71 & 78 balls. Yet he's mainly remembered for his One Day Cricket, Two...

    English Domestic Season 2023

    Compton just needs to keep scoring runs his way, if the selectors think he's the man for the job, they will eventually pick him. In the end, scoring runs is the currency, who knows how the first two or three Ashes Test's go, they made need him at the top of the order. Anyway as a Kent supporter...

    Very tense at Hove, Sussex need 9 with two wickets in hand.

    English Domestic Season 2023

    Umpires go off for Tea with the scores level & Hampshire 131-2 needing 1 run to win. Seriously, why just not play one more over.

    Back in 1973, the Hampshire first wicket record of 249 was technically passed by a three way partnership of 334,between Barry Richards, 143 ret h, Gordon Greenidge, 118 & David Turner 64, against Kent. However Richards had to retire hurt with a depressed fracture of the cheekbone with the score...
