After tonight's performance vs Ciderset...

If we can't beat them we ought to be shot.

I looked a very difficult pitch to have any idea what kind of target to set on it.  If it's the same pitch and we get stuck in then we will likely struggle to put a decent score on the board with the one dimensional way we tend to bat.

Weather forecast is terrible.  Looks like one point each.

More drink/drug taking time for the city-types that attend these beanos.

Well I'm half way through a cup of leaf Assam and I've just taken a couple of ibuprofens for a swollen knee. My sorta d&ds these days.

An unedifying spectacle but a win is a win. Credit to Holden who gave it a real go.

Shame our innings was curtailed, we were very well set and Cox looked in terrific touch.

Never in doubt.

Glad I didn't pay ?40 for that...plus expenses. I do my 'coke' at home.

Yep, Cox looked set for big innings. Enjoy watching him while you can before he is snapped up
full-time by the franchise merry-go-round.
Seriously good player.

 Judging by his reaction looks like Rossington has damaged a finger.
 Did not keep during the Middlesex innings.
 Opportunity for another, has must be fit for 16.4 franchise.

Nat?remind Rosso about how many consecutive matches Brian Taylor played for us. Broken fingers and all.

History might repeat itself. Needs thicker gloves?

There is absolutely no truth in the rumour that he mistook his finger for a sausage.

Khushi is out clubbing at some festival according to his Insta profile.....so I think that means he is not replacing Rosso tonight....

Maybe Browne can come in and play the anchor role :-)
