Has Budinger ever done anything? 

Quick write another one, it seems to be working!!

[Harpenden Fox]

Rehan averages 12 with the bat in T20. He’s not a number 3. If we want impetus after an early wicket surely in form Kimber comes in.

I swear 90% of our wickets are caught on the boundary

I said the same thing a few weeks back. Why do we go aerial so much?

Patel on Saturday and bopara today didn’t take a single risk. The good balls are steered around, the bad balls go for four. Our lads natural response seems to be to leather it no matter what or go into a shell

[Harpenden Fox]

Handscomb is a proper classical player but struggles to find the boundary. Potters along at one per ball

[Harpenden Fox]

Last chance saloon now as Kimber comes to the crease.

And throws his wicket away when he didn’t need to play that shot

Yep. Just see Willey off by working the ball around and then target the other bowlers. Madness.

This. It’s not rocket science. The field is spread. Take singles and a two maybe and see Willey off. I know cricket is easy from outside the boundary, but our lack of smarts is scary

[Tommy Fresh]

Great fielding there 

[Tommy Fresh]

Surely done now

[Lionator]

19 from 18 yet we’ll still somehow lose

[Lako42]

Need to smarten the **** up

[Sunbury Fox]

Get in! Big win, this.

[Tommy Fresh]

Great by Goldsworthy in that Sanderson over

[Harpenden Fox]

Like a drunk staggering home after a long night in the pub, we have somehow found our way home. If we could just play a bit more intelligently (as Goldsworthy did at the end to be fair) we will give ourselves a chance 

[MaidstoneFox]

Great knock from Neesham, hopefully he can do the same in the last two games

Well that's it for another year. 😔. Neesham has been very disappointing and Mulder before that. Handscombe is not a t20 player and as for Budinger, I've seen better club players! Mike also useless! 

[HaroldBazBo]

Hats off to Neesham, turned it on at the right time.

 

We need to beat Snottingham then who knows.

[SemperEadem]

Big win

We are a bizarre team but I guess that’s T20 cricket…!

All is not lost as a win tonight and one of the last two, MIGHT just be enough with our run rate and looking at other fixtures. However, tonight is a must win against Northants. 
 

Budinger must be dropped for Swindells. 
 

Scriven in for Neesham. Genuinely seen enough to suggest that he’s only here for the pay check. Send him packing early. He’s finished. 
 

Slagged Cox off and he found form the next game.

 

Budinger and Neesham tonight. 
 

Who do we want as the next “victim”? 🦊

Ben Mike epitomises our side and no more so than with his bowling today. First over carted and then goes on to bowl miserly at the death.

 

Pleased to see Neesham get a good knock in. Hopefully helps him feel part of the team and sets him up for big contributions in the last couple games. Hopefully Rishi gets back in the runs and then we're in business.

Just shit on Notts as usual please
