*Official* Blast 2023

[CartyDurham]

Start time 705pm uk time

still 20 overs per side

 

[CartyDurham]

Like to see Smeed go big here

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Feel for Sams

 

[CartyDurham]

17 for 0 off 2

Doully said the ground staff think there will be enough time for a full mate before more rain cones in

hopefully they are right as this could be a cracker

 

[CartyDurham]

Kiss of death by me for Smeed

big inside edge and he’s gone bowled for 9

thought snater was going to self combust in his celebration of the wicket

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

That wicket should be credit of the keeper standing up

 

[Michelle Fivefer]

Three ex Surrey there post match on comms

still feel sorry for Alex Tudor scoring 99 as a night watchman and I think it’s was his mate Graham Thorpe who robbed the strike to win a game for England years back

I’ve never forgiven Thorpe. As I recall, he asked Tudor what he wanted and Tudor deferred to the senior man. Thorpe should have done the honourabke thing, Never liked him anyway.

 

[CartyDurham]

What a stat, that over by Snater was only the second ever maiden in a t20 finals day final

over the 20 years of finals

 

[Michelle Fivefer]

Didn’t stick around in the conversation earlier - have a headache, feel a bit rough. Surrey were rubbish.

TKC

such a good modern batsman

 

[chunksafc]

Really hope the weather doesn't spoil this, shaping up to be a great game

 

[slippy888]

what is up with tom banton career guys he seems to be below average performer at every level

 

[CartyDurham]

46 for 1 off the power play

steady start. I think they could be looking at around the 170 scored in the first match

 

[CartyDurham]

Perfect example as he reverse sweeps pace to short fine leg

I think that sums up his career

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Damn, Snater having an excellent final here

 

[CartyDurham]

TKC

such a good modern batsman

Saw him a few years back destroy Durham and surprised he hasn’t had a chance at international T20 level yet

 

[CartyDurham]

Still not happy with that false start in the mascot race

 

[chunksafc]

What's the collar thing TKC has on?

 

[CartyDurham]

What's the collar thing TKC has on?

Strange thing , and he can take it off

not seen a thing like that before

could it be like those copper things people wear for arthritis?

Its got me stumped

 

[CartyDurham]

Some good bowling here , keeping the rate under control

I though 170 but I’m now leaning towards 150
