Given their respective hissy fits, Will we be having both skippers banned for 'dissent'? If so, would we have Chef as stand-in if he's banned because of slow over rates in the test?

I bet Sorry,Kent,Sussex & Middx were delighted we got beaten today as it looks a fight between these 5 for 2 places behind Gloucs & Glam. Klinger demonstrated his love for our bowling yet again & we never got going from the looks of it. Why do we always put the opposition in if we win the toss? It clearly backfired today & if we reached the 1/4s then our opponents would doubtless put us in as they know we are less comfortable batting first, we need to be versatile ie be equally comfortable batting 1st or 2nd.
Looks like RTD may be in trouble for dissent, he does often swish his bat when out especially when he has given his wicket away, got out to a poor stroke.

Completely out thought, outplayed and beaten by Gloucestershire yet again. Guess that they are just too good for us.

Good job we are not playing Cheltenham Ladies college 3rd XI this season.

It certainly makes a difference when you have 2 good overseas players. They always look twice the team when Klinger joins them, especially.

...all the way from Korea, hate the dress, though.

Why no Ryder? In the squad for this one but not selected. Is he injured? Attitude issue? I can't believe Velani is in in front of Ryder even if the latter has hardly been firing on full cylinders recently.
Thoughts anyone?
-
According to the Essex report of game Ryder has a calf strain?

Yes, a common affliction amongst fast bowlers.

In the LVCC game we used 4 main bowlers, Porter, Napier, Quinn and Bopara, three of whom, who are currentley playing in virtually every match. Gloucester used 5 main bowlers in the LVCC but rested 4 for the T20 with only Norwell playing both. Other teams follow this principal.
Essex use the above 4 for most matches. They bowl Westley, Tendo, Lawrence, and Zaidi occasionally and Dixon, Nijjer, Taylor, Beard and Masters not at all.
In the past Grayson often bowled bowlers into the ground. Have we learnt nothing.

Dixon, MAsters and Beard have bowled a bit. What has happened to Nijar???

This is the Club who signed Scott Brant, a fragile but good prospect who'd played a mere five first class games in his career up to that point. Essex saw no issue in playing him in every format; CC, T20, NWT, Sunday League with no break. Then, held their collective hands up that he'd been injured (as it transpired one that effectively ended his first class career!) ; - That was 13 years ago, under the alleged 'leadership' of a certain Irani.
What we have learnt is that it's No Change..... As for what the Club have learnt? Go figure! ::)

The same Irani was also responsible for bowling Peter Such into the ground on unhelpful surfaces.

That wasn't Irani. In fact Irani taking over as captain was when Such bowled less and less and then dropped to allow the fantastic Tim Mason into the side. He came back at one stage but retired soon after. There was a game at Colchester when Prichard captained where he bowled 86 overs in one innings.

Fletch mentioned angrily in his book how naughty members/people on message boards moaned about letting suchie go - so I'd guess it was his green-tinged glasses that influenced the underuse of our better bowler.

Also accused that ilk of getting him the sack as head coach in said publication. Nothing to do with his command of one of the poorest seasons in the clubs' modern history, of course. ::) Ably abetted by Irani!
It's standard fare from the Club and the 'Essex Way'. Everything that goes wrong or is unarguably poor is someone else's fault - right through to the current time.

Poor Owd Fwetch: as much as his introverted personality got in the way of his various international roles, he was shafted by the Yorkies and Toffs.

Why play the inexperienced Callum Taylor in a 20/20. And batting at about no 8, like we are playing with 10 men.
