*Official* English Domestic Season Thread (2005)

[Kweek]

meh, in home series oke. but away series. nope, not gonna light up. but hey..the ashes are in england

 

[aussie]

for me the first session is crucial tommorow, cos i'd back Lancs to defend anything more than 180 in the last innings at OT with Murali and Keeds

definately, sicne other than Hussey & Collingwood & to an extent Benkenstein the durham batting is patchy. But Lanchashire should ahve made more its been an up & down start to the season for Lanchashire but it was nice to see Flintoff bowling this afternoon, its way in front of schedule but great for all english fans/

Also celebrating Warne's maiden first class ton, what a superb innings from the legendary aussie

Go on Blackwell, like i said before he is someone i like, i dont know why. good season so far, england ODI contention for me, he offers a lot

Like what?!

Biffing county medium pacers around is entirely different to being able to handle International attacks.

 

[Langeveldt]

Lancashire fans get a load of my sig.. That was my reaction when I heard it..

 

[badgerhair]

I have made a discovery. There is a worse wicketkeeper than Jamie Pipe. Adshead of Glos. Truly hopeless.

Cheers,

Blackwell should never get another England chance again, the guy was pathetic last time he batted for them.

He wasn't that bad, his bowling figures are reasonably decent really, just a shame he was in the team as a batsmen...

I wonder what Flintoff's early career figures were like.

 

[SpaceMonkey]

A professional sportsman should be fit, he is obviously not which makes him a complete liablity in the field.
For a number of occasions he strolled out to the middle for England looking half asleep as if he'd just woken up, and played a shot that often supported that assumption and got out.

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

Battin' Shane.

 

[shaka]

wow Mushtaq Ahmed has a four wicket haul so far against Warwickshire.

 

[shaka]

I am looking at the scores, and see a guy called S Moore, born in Jo'burg SA, but has played most of his cricket in England, I can assume. He is currently on 239 not out of 380 odd deliveries.

Kadder Ali. The man. The legend. The first baller.

Got that average back down below twenty!

well scotland are an international team

Muchall and Lewis are pretty good as well, Peng, Breese & Mustard usually do nothing most of the time. So Mustard currently being 77* off 105 is somewhat unexpected (that's currently his highest first class score, he usually scores at that rate tho).

 

[Scaly piscine]

Didn't take much longer for "the new Gilchrist" (some letter on CEEFAX called him that) to get out

 

[Scaly piscine]

Looks like Durham have imported another Aussie with noballitis.

Stupendous catch by Scott, though.

Lanchashire got issues, Hussey looked at ease againts all the Lanchasire bowlers especially Murali and now Lanchasire have lost all thier major batsmen with just Freddie left, if Lanchashire are to escape this one they need a Freddie miracle

 

[shaka]

Ottis Gibson got a 6 wicket bag.

From what I know about Lewis, it's not something he does much. I'm sure he'll improve.
