CC :: Middlesex v Durham

[The Rat]

Jones plays on. Didn’t look comfortable all morning truth be told. Has a real problem with getting bogged down.

93-2.

Vital partnership this

Middlesex not got much pace but bowling very tight wicket to wicket, TRJ the pick

 

[brandon]

Change of ball. 32 overs. I thought there was a new batch?

Whey, that’s about three times the lifespan of anything last week so I would say that’s a marked improvement

 

[Bri]

Petersen does inspire confidence. Looks wrong.

 

[The Rat]

Spinner was turning a few

Bit too expansive there

In a spot of bother now as Petersen been bit lucky

Here comes Ben

Borthwick that was terrible and utter poo

 

[wayne entwhistle no9]

Poor shot from Borthwick far to full to try and play that shot.

 

[Bri]

Borthwick chopped on, beaten over the course of several balls. Good bowling.

Poor shot selection IMHO from Borthwick.Too close to body to try and cut hence the underedge

Aye you’re right, shame

Just hope stokes bats for a period just as it’s enjoyable
Shocking that

What a shame, it’s flat and the suns out

Poor

 

[Bri]

Bugger

 

[brandon]

I’m sorry, but that’s absolutely pathetic from the England captain.

 

[The Rat]

Why try and hit him straight for 6 that early on?

No need at all

 

[brandon]

Just like last week, gifting the opposition wickets on a road.

They’ve had three complete presents.

 

[Poolynorm]

FFS . Brawn before Brain .Big responsibility from Ned to keep Petersen company.Tempted to bat Raine at 7.

 

[thewearsider]

Oh dear, not one of Bens best shots that. Four down, need a partnership, Ned well overdue a contribution.

 

[wayne entwhistle no9]

Actually feels like Stokes wasn't respecting the game there and paid the price.

I can only assume there is a negative missing there ..

 

[The Rat]

My impression is that he was just gonna play all the shots regardless

Almost like he couldn’t be arsed to just grind out runs which were there for the taking

There were singles absolutely everywhere and the leg spinners was bowling full and short

Pissed me off that, was just arrogant

Actually feels like Stokes wasn't respecting the game there and paid the price.

100% see my post above

You put it a lot shorter and summed it up better

Only going off here but that sounds exactly right. Who got him out? Better attack this one than the last few
