County Cricket 2024


Bairstow playing for Yorkshire at Scarbados this week. Sussex, the visitors, looking strong though.
Kent look absolutely doomed.

That’s hideous.

Did anyone else notice that Surrey declared 9 down after Tom Hartley had just taken two wickets in two balls? :lol:

Also, there could be some nervous weather watching doing on down at Worcester tomorrow (and Sunday), looks likely to be an almighty downpour in the morning which could wipe out Day 3. A draw would be a good result for us there.
 
Gloucestershire had their game abandoned due to a dangerous pitch. Fair play to the officials for having the balls. Don’t see it often so it must’ve been bad.

Gotta be a points deduction then.

Wonder if they get the standard deduction or a heavier penalty.

Don't think I can remember this ever happening in county cricket.
 
@TheRey

Burns,Jacks and Foakes got no chance playing for England again, if they can't even deal with a 16 year old spinner in his second FC game!!!

That being said clearly some performance by the kid following up his 3/87 against Sri Lanka on debut and now 4/69 against the best side in the country.

Wonder if they will whisk him of to Pakistan like they did his brother 2 years ago. Wonder if both brothers go!

I mean, Burns did score 160 runs before he fell to the kid ;)

He was extremely impressive from what I saw and listened to. Old man is up at Trent Bridge, text me after the close absolutely raving - reckons based on that, he'll be better than his brother in no time.

We picked his brother after 3 FC games and 9 wickets.

Rehan first 9 wickets came against Middlesex and Derbyshire

His victims Hollman x2, Roland Jones, Reece, Du Plooy, Came, Aitchinson and Potts

Farhan has 7 from less than two completed innings against Sri Lanka and best side in England.

His victims Madshuka ,Matthews, Samarawickrama, Patel, Burns, Jacks and Foakes.

Only one of his victims hasn't played Test Cricket. A ridiculous start to a FC career.

He's only 16 so England might not want to heap too much on him. But picked his brother off less and it went perfectly.
