Lancashire have 4 games left tho.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Brad Hodge the star against Derbyshire again. 44 and 4-17. Ho hum.

Lancashire have 4 games left tho.

yeah forgot its 8 games now

 

[aussie]

Yeah i was their this afternoon, he bowled Gray out with a delivery that would make Murali proud. Good all-round performace by him, i wonder if the Australian selectors have taken notice.

More good news for Lanchashire is that we could be having Symonds for the remainder of the season.

 

[superkingdave]

if Symonds will sign for Lancashire - good signing imo, can't replace Murali, but who can? Will be a massive asset if we get through to the Twenty20 QF, would strengthen a batting lineup that has looked one batsman too short in the County Championship.

 

[aussie]

yeah definately, i really hope he does sign. By the way dave were you at Old Trafford on Saturday & will you be going to any day of the test match??

 

[superkingdave]

I wasn't there on Saturday, decided against it with the weather forecast, I have tickets for the 1st day of the test match, and i've booked the day off on the monday in case we don't win inside 4 days

 

[aussie]

Ha, well lucky me since i'm a club member i'll be their every playing day of the test.

 

[Barney Rubble]

Can't help noticing Graeme Smith seems to have discovered a new side to Jamie Hildreth since he arrived as captain - his bowling! He's got a Twenty20 bowling average of around 12 now, has taken wickets in every T20 game this season having bowled very little in his entire career before that. We could have a useful part-timer on our hands down at the County Ground if he keeps this up.

Brad Hodge the star against Derbyshire again. 44 and 4-17. Ho hum.

<quack> Cheaty and Corky sitting in a tree, holding hands with Murali.

 

[shaka]

Shane Warne moving to SA

 

[luckyeddie]

Shane Warne moving to SA

And he's notified people of this in the correct manner - you know, so it's official?

Proper text message and all?

 

[shaka]

Im sure he text one of his female friends in SA

 

[Scaly piscine]

Wish I could see Yorkshire getting massacred...

 

[Scaly piscine]

Typical Sky tossers stopping the game for 5-10 minutes just for a stump camera.

 

[superkingdave]

Lancs absolutely slaughtered Yorkshi*e

 

[aussie]

dam right, but the only disappointment from yesterday is that it's Murali's & Hodge's last game for us . We better get Symonds....

 

[aussie]

Lanchashire win today at Old Trafford, thats 5 out of 6 in the Twenty20. , only sad thing is that it could be Hodge's last game here

Symonds better get his ar$e up here.

 

[superkingdave]

you go today aussie? we probably need one more win for a home QF, looking good - If Symonds comes in we'll be among the favorites - any idea when North arrives?

 

[aussie]

yeah i was thier but i missed Loye's innings, i heard Mr.Watkinson saying that North is coming next week but i'm not totally sure.
