County Cricket 2025

[Lumley End]

It’s been happening for years. We’ve benefited from hit before. It’s shite but they’d rather him be playing meaningful cricket for the sake of England than be sat on his arse doing nothing. It does seem a bit inconsistent as to when they let it happen like.

Is the Kookaburra ball still in use or the Dukes back now?

Kookaburra-this round and next round.

I've not seen Rocky playing for Hampshire for a while. Is he injured?

 

[Silly Point]

I've been dragged along to Scarborough. Usual gobshites in attendance

Cheers. Interesting. Much more varied scores so far.

Lots of wickets down and fewer runs from the off in the first sessions today, despite the Kookies. I took one look outside and decided it was probably the change in weather that had caused it.

I've just seen how green the wicket is at Taunton which must account for the scores there!

How much is a ticket?

That's another thing. f***ing £33. He never told me that either!

Its the reason loads of my mates have refused to go. Normally a huge Surrey contingent at Scarborough, but massively depleted this year for that reason

That is ridiculous

I thought it was bad enough paying £20 when we played down there in 2023 (Didn't help that we only got the morning session due to rain)

Sorry if already mentioned (not seen any details on here) but Leics 1st innings yesterday was very odd, three tons Ahmed Hill and Handscombe batting 3,4 and 5, the rest in ducks or single figures.

Tom Hartley has just gone to a century for Lancashire @mackembhoy

 

[danthemanSAFC]

Middlesex scored maximum batting points for the first time since 2022 today, of course that was when it was 400 runs for 5 points.

Essex and Worcs both looking good for victory. Not good.

Forecast to rain on and off after lunch in Hove until close. Fingers crossed it's accurate.

 

[Inside Forward]

Made my down to Cheltenham for the cricket festival. I must say it’s absolutely farcical how long it takes them to get the covers off and get the match started. We’ve had a little light drizzle but nothing major and now they’ve just announced the toss will take place at 11:45 and hoping to start play at 12:15. Just get on with it for fuck sake.

Couldn't agree more. So much time lost unnecessarily because of this.
