Bit annoyed that the Hampshire game isn't being shown on Sky on Sunday. KP's playing for us, would loved to have seen that!

If I had Sky their choices of match would drive my round the bend I think.
Today you've got a probable run-fest involving two popular London sides, or two high quality northern sides battling it out. Or you've got Worcestershire v Nottinghamshire - neither of whom qualified last year.

The T20 games shown so far have been pretty disappointing TBH. I just don't think these early season English conditions suit the aggressive nature of T20. We've seen drab, green pitches that don't allow the batsmen to get going and make runs. The only decent game of T20 I've seen was the Essex-Kent game, when Tendo went mental. T20 really shouldn't be a fair contest between bat and ball, it's supposed to be hit-and-giggle cricket. Flat pitches condusive to exciting batting and big scores. T20 games where the average score is 120 just aren't entertaining AFAIC. This game, and the one yesterday have been very disappointing; the only highlights last night were Woakes bowling well and Bell's innings. Other than that it's been pretty dull.

FWIW i think they have to show each side at least once so hopefully they are getting the crap games out of the way

Alex Hales. WAG. Love watching this lad bat. Only seen him a couple of times on Sky, and everytime he's made runs. The Century in Pro40 last year was a magnificent innings, and he's started well here too. Loving the fact we've got so many young, talented batsmen coming through. Backing Hales to play International cricket at some point in his career too, he fits our current batting plan perfectly. He's athletic, big, strong and hits the ball a long way. Like the look of him a lot.

Fats Patel bowled round his legs first ball. Been a quality spell from Smith though, looks a very impressive young leggie.

Woah, since when did Gibbs play for Yorkshire? Must have missed that one.
Anyway, wish I was at the game, destroyed Durham by 9 wickets.

Only one on display as far as I could tell.
Mind you, the Minor County's forte is apparently Championship Cricket, in which format I see they are now teetering on the edge of the relegation zone.

Cricket getting more like football? Season not yet halfway through, and another captain goes, following on from Nicky Boje and Will Smith. Time was when I wouldn't have had any trouble naming all the county captains, I think I'd struggle now. Udal may get a few more games under Gilchrist and Dexter but will surely call it a day (for the second time) at the end of the season.

Will be a tough chase today, anything over 140 tricky at OT

Love the start to the Hampshire-Somerset game. Staredown between Lumb and Kieswetter which ended with Lumb going in for a double leg, brilliant stuff.Woah, just showed a shot from Pollard which was 6ft short of going over the Lords Pavillion, massive shot. Should be a good game this one.

Durston justifying his contract with Derbyshire, wonder whether they will keep him on afterwards?
