Sorry, 'Piers Morgan' and 'official' in the same sentence?

by StaggerBreaths 9/28/2017 11:17:57 AM
I can't imagine Piers Morgan would ever invent a story, would he?

by Will Colwell 9/28/2017 11:17:33 AM
Is Piers Morgan's version of the Stokes story official?

Shot for one Ravi...

Mike Burns at Leach's end, I think

Who is this absolute tease of an umpire at Taunton?

by baptrimble 9/28/2017 11:14:02 AM

- Live Update
George Dobell at Somerset v Middlesex (101-9).

Career-best figures for van der Merwe after Murtagh comes down the pitch and misses a swipe.

Doesn't take much to knock a stump out of the ground these days.

by Haystack_Jnr 9/28/2017 11:11:02 AM
Ah, the good old six and out.

One or two first class batting averages would take a blow if ever DRS was generalised.

by Haystack_Jnr 9/28/2017 11:09:19 AM
two very out looking LBW decisions turned down in the same Leach over. One to Finn may have pitched outside leg

by Will Colwell 9/28/2017 11:08:11 AM
ooooooohhhhhhh DRS on that one !!!!

by Joe Williams 9/28/2017 11:07:12 AM
@Haystack_Jnr Burnham doing the same

by nickcricket 9/28/2017 11:07:09 AM
Alsop cunningly hiding his talent behind his first class average.

George Dobell at Somerset v Middlesex (93-8).

Harris, attempting a slog-sweep, has gone to a top-edge. The end is nigh.

by George.Dobell 9/28/2017 11:02:53 AM
Hants bossing this, with Lions batsmen Tom Alsop at the crease its a breeze

by nickcricket 9/28/2017 11:02:45 AM
TWO MORE

Van Der Merwe looks almost unplayable on this track at times, I hope this isn't gonna give Mr Noon ideas...

by Haystack_Jnr 9/28/2017 11:00:43 AM
Jack Leach has bowled every single Somerset over from one end in this match without being taken off - 49 overs and counting

Why, is he going BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM
BOOM BOOM BOOM
BOOM BOOM, BOOM BOOM...

by StaggerBreaths 9/28/2017 10:54:13 AM
Harris has decided he'll own the bullet with his name on it...
