Around the Grounds

[brandon]

Notice early doors that some of the Second Division sides are more than holding their own.

Also found looking at the various lineups very interesting, noticeable that Hampfrica are unrecognisable without all their foreigners

We haven’t got nearly as many as they normally have.

Surrey have so far given a bowl to three spinners.

Scott Borthwick wasn’t one of them.

Kuhn batting for Kent gets the first Bob Willis Trophy hundred.

I honestly think he should go home.

Not in a nasty way, he's a lovely lad, but for whatever reason it just hasn't worked. Going home to Durham could help him find himself again

It's mad his decline he looked England quality at Durham

Never seen it at Surrey unfortunately. Lovely bloke, really popular, but never been good enough

There were a lot worse players that got decent chances, same with rushy

 

[mikemanc]

Nice to see Stone playing and picking up 4 wickets. He's got a chance with England if he can stay fit.

3 for Mason Crane too, didn't expect to see a leggie on day one......though I suppose it is August.

I’ll second that

An Australian named Ryan sidebottom took 2 wickets in an alternate universe.

Think he'll go down as a 'What could've been'? He must be into his thirties now.

 

[leecoo]

Borthwick onto bowl and gets a wicket

 

[The Hesford Diet]

Ouch.

I agree. I was just watching Paul Coughlin bowling for Durham and the thought occurred that he looked more 'at home' than seeing him play for Notts (which he hardly ever did).

I think hes going to get a big 100 here. Been watching it and he looks as comfortable as owt . Hes 61 not out and tbf he got 130 at the end of last season. Perhaps hes found his feet?
