T20 :: Durham v Derbyshire


Don’t agree with the stick Bas and Parnell are getting on here tbh. Wides are part of the game and Derby bowled them too. The difference between Coggers and the other bowlers demonstrated our problems - injuries and unavailability are killing us. Remember that we are missing our first 5 choice seamers for various reasons (6 if you include Ben) and the lads out there are really 6-8th choice for us. We’re doing okay limping on, but the lack of bowling is causing us to play more bowlers and hence causing batting problems for us too

This is so infinitely better than it was the past 5 seasons orso, that I don’t get the criticism. Or would people prefer going back to Borthwick and Jennings batting 9 and 10 and not bowling?
Stokes and Wood can’t be included in our *missing* bowlers they were never going to play for us, the same applies to Potts for the rest of the summer.
 
Didn't Potts play most of this season so far?
He did, which is why I said he’ll now be missing for the rest of the summer, I’m not dissing your train of thought because yes we have had bowlers out, but to include our England players is a bit disingenuous as we all knew that they wouldn’t be here, in fact Stokes and Wood are basically England players full stop.
