@Will Abell, he is no Hose

by nickcricket 6/29/2017 1:11:30 PM
Compo's seen Cook's recent form, clearly.

by StaggerBreaths 6/29/2017 1:10:52 PM
Maybe that's why George Bailey has won every test he's played and I'm some loser sitting here moaning about Tom Abell

by Will 6/29/2017 1:10:26 PM
Compton just hit a six. How dashing.

by jlcis 6/29/2017 1:10:16 PM
Compo 6 alert

by dez dezzy 6/29/2017 1:10:07 PM
@Will yes, but I bet he doesn't.

by jlcis 6/29/2017 1:09:37 PM
@jlcis if I were George Bailey I'd get a lead of 150 and declare

by Will 6/29/2017 1:08:56 PM
Nice free runs for Rawlins, really boost the average

by nickcricket 6/29/2017 1:08:37 PM
@DuluthK.Archaeopteryx - in that case why don't they have more then! Strange field

by dez dezzy 6/29/2017 1:08:01 PM
@dezdezzy too leave space in the field?

by jlcis 6/29/2017 1:07:32 PM
@dezdezzy You don't want the fielders standing where the ball's actually going to go!

by Duluth K. Archaeopteryx 6/29/2017 1:07:16 PM
@jlcis Looking like he had one good season and is now falling back into the pack

by nickcricket 6/29/2017 1:06:46 PM
@Will still going to be a draw.

by jlcis 6/29/2017 1:06:45 PM
Glam have scored a run yaaaaay

by Matt_MYano 6/29/2017 1:06:42 PM
Why are Gloucs bothering with 3 slips when this is clearly declaration bowling?!

by dez dezzy 6/29/2017 1:06:27 PM
Somerset wasting absolutely no time in going back to being total dogsh*t

by Will 6/29/2017 1:06:04 PM

by nickcricket 6/29/2017 12:52:04 PM
Hadn't picked up until i saw the squad this morning that the Lions team doesn't have any genuine new ball bowlers in it, and only 4 full time bowlers in the XI

by dez dezzy 6/29/2017 12:51:52 PM
There will be a 2.30pm inspection due to the state of the run-ups from the Kirkstall Lane End.

by nickcricket 6/29/2017 12:47:03 PM
Also interested to see Amir Virdi in the ECB's pic of Mason Crane receiving his cap, he's not officially in the squad

by dez dezzy 6/29/2017 12:44:54 PM
Oh, mucked up the last over.

by StaggerBreaths 6/29/2017 12:43:26 PM
Hopefully some proper cricket today, though even the Lions game is hit by rain at the mo

Hameed and Buttler braced for England omission
George Dobell: It seems a pretty safe bet to assume that neither Haseeb Hameed or Jos Buttler will be in the England squad for the first Test against South Africa when it is named at 9am on Sunday
