**Official** County Cricket 2016

Quite pleased with that really, I'd feel for Scaly, if he wasn't, well, Scaly.

 

[fredfertang]

**** - if Lanky lose to Hampshire and Surrey were to beat Middlesex we'd be right in the mire

 

[Pothas]

Hameed doing his thing, you should be able to manage a draw.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Disgraceful effort from Durham. Game was there on a plate and they've spectacularly managed to throw it away in the manner you'd expect of some soft-arse pea-heart London team.

 

[91Jmay]

Never change Scaly

 

[Gnske]

Hameed doing his thing, you should be able to manage a draw.

He literally would have been the perfect foil for Cook this series with his disgustingly furious pace of scoring.

The answer is there but the selectors ignore alas.

 

[91Jmay]

Nice little 4fer on a flat deck for Sam Curran.

 

[grecian]

Yes, Surrey have handled Sam pretty well this season, gradually phasing him in.

Jofra Archer doing well again with bat and ball, with him Jordon and Garton, Sussex could have a decent attack next year. Pretty rapid anyway.

 

[91Jmay]

Add in Mills in the T20s and that is serious pace.

Laurie Evans makes a pair of 70s for Northants but apparently can't crack our dire batting line up.

 

[fredfertang]

Interesting couple of sessions left at Headingley today - Bell and Trott owe it to their teammates to step up to the challenge

 

[The_roc]

Well there aren't many spinners who have taken wickets this season.

All over in 17 minutes.

Will we see the ECB pitch inspector heading down to Taunton?

 

[grecian]

Hameed has his 1000th first class run, at a scoring-rate of 35.4, old-school, for someone just out of school,

 

[91Jmay]

Top order piss weak again. Awful.

Foakes and Sam Curran with runs. Really excited about Curran and looks like Foakes could be developing into the reserve keeper.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Will we see the ECB pitch inspector heading down to Taunton?

Who knows, would have heard though by now surely?

 

[91Jmay]

Fact it was so many spinners so early in innings does give it a feel of the old Northants pitches they used to get reprimanded for

 

[Cabinet96]

Impressive from Durham. Underrated that they had us 6/33 in the 3rd innings as well.

 

[91Jmay]

Mason Crane 3fer. Sam Curran having an excellent game. Good to see some young bowlers stepping up.

Crane has 34 wickets in 12 matches @ 37 a piece which is really not bad for a 19 year old leggie in England. Still really excited about him.

 

[fredfertang]

The Great Wall of Bolton is the finest opening batsman the world has seen since Foxy Fowler

The Great Wall of Bolton is the finest opening batsman the world has seen since Foxy Fowler

Hope he continues to progress and ends up only playing 10 times in 10 years for Lancashire.

 

[fredfertang]

I couldn't blame him for leaving as once Petersen goes he's going to get **** all support
