CC :: Warwickshire v Durham

[smoker]

This Ryan Sidebottom lad is a useful bowler in English conditions. Should grow his hair long for the full identity theft.

 

[Poolynorm]

Burnham or Ned at 9

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

Aye, he’s bowled some (fairly rotten) spin in the past in T20s

He'll fit in well

Given that these call ups will not only affect this game but the 4 day game v Notts starting Sunday and at least one T20 game this could have a serious affect on our chances in both competitions at this crucial stage in the season. However, when your country needs you…..!

It's a shame when we needed them they fucked us over...

Tbf Notts without Duckett and Ball so swings and roundabouts. Matty twofer, Jack Campbell or Bradley Currie to play.

Dickson has scored 318 opening the batting for Kent! He is an experienced opener and needs to sort his game out not be wrapped in cotton wool at six. It makes no sense playing him there when Burnham has a century there this season and still only 24 so has the potential to kick on. And of course Jones has been moved from his best batting position to accommodate him.

What has had the potential to be a great season has been stymied by some baffling selection decisions.

I forgot we signed him from Kent.

He had a pretty naff previous season before we signed him iirc.

Had some good seasons for them though.

I don't get the logic either just trying to make sense of it.

Just now caught up on all the England news. Absolutely fucked us over yet again.

Albeit can't legislate for an outbreak like this

Bugger, Potts bowled by Miles. Warwickshire commentators blethering on like he's a total bunny and 35 bonus runs for Durham.

Borthwick is determined to get caught off a strangle down the leg side.

That lbw decision was a disgrace. Shite umps

 

[Dorlonco]

Banga gone leg before. Wasn’t best pleased with the decision and it looked high from where I’m sat.

 

[The Red Telephone]

Only three bowlers if Borthwick is still too injured to bowl.

I presume they've written off a result and brought them in to maximise our chances of batting points.

They need to get as many bonus points as possible as it looks like only the weather will prevent Notts from beating Derbyshire.

 

[Monument View]

That lbw decision was a disgrace.
Correct far too high
We need to bat well and long today as the lack of bowler changes if needed tomorrow looks worrisome

 

[brandon]

Horrific decision against Bancroft. Horrific decision by England.

Clearly the two batsmen coming in is for the batting points - a draw keeps us alive, with a top two finish in our own hands.

 

[smoker]

Another promising cameo that failed to develop by Borthwick.

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

When do Burnham and Clark bat?

When do Burnham and Clark bat?

After these two I presume.

 

[Monument View]

This BBC Warks commentator is getting on my tits prattling on about Borthwick being bowled by Sidebottom prevents Mikes from getting a ten wicket haul.

Haway Jack.

Dickson Out lbw to ball slipping down legside
Another poor umpiring decision

 

[smoker]

This umpire is a disgrace. Would love to see a hawkye on his lbw decisions.
.
Franklin is going to look a mug if we are bowled out for under 200 and need to bowl well to save the game.

 

[Old Timer]

Pleased to see Potts proving me right, the lad can bat and we will see him developing into an all rounder.

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

standard of umpiring this season so far has been appalling

Sure it was the same umpire that gave Burgess out LBW yesterday and that one looked too high. Card marked. Knew what to expect.
