vs Glos (Home)

[nat]

Can't believe how many empty seats there are.

Bad weather in the afternoon but even so.

[jimmy]

No die hards in a t20 match.

[Perov]

Being on Sky also affects the crowd.

[nat]

I write before the game is over (just) but this is as shocking a performance as I've seen in a long time.

It's as if they have given up on the T20 competition.

Embarrassing.

Dreadful.

The first thing they should do is send Riaz home. Unfit to play professional cricket.

Velani looked like he didn't want to get his kit dirty and had no hands.

What has got into our batsmen in twenty20 cricket?  We just seem so passive.  The boundaries when sky are in town are rediculously small and you can hit sixes without even trying.  Our batsmen just seem to want to pat it around for ones and twos.  200was absolute minimum today.  Dross like Benny Howell should be going for 15 an over not 15 in four.

I think that's a bit hard on Howell. It's not hard on our batsmen though.

Must do better 1/10 , ( and that was for turning up ).

[Stringbok]

Ok folks thinking hats on we need a new name for fortress Chelmsford.

Best I can come up with is Open House Chelmsford or the less pithy I've left the back door open Chelmsford.

Stank worse than yesterdays bins.

Did they turn up?! I think they 'phoned in' that performance.

[Niel01]

Many more T20 performances like we have seen so far and the Club will see the attendances go through the floor next Season and the level of income with it !!

Wonder if our Pakistani overseas so called 'star' is on incentives to bowl badly. Porter, Beard, Moore and Walter could all have done a better job at bowling and done it at a fraction of the cost.

He's been no worse than any of our other "star" players.  Our batsmen have scored 1 50 between them in 5 matches and his economy rate is pretty much the same as Masters and Quinn and only slightly worse than Napier.  He's been a disappointment but who hasn't?  tendo has done ok and Zaidi has done well, the rest have contributed very little.
