by Will Colwell 9/6/2017 2:26:36 PM
@Rob From memory i'm sure there was a bloke called Woods who carried his bat something like 17 or 18 times for Leics, suffice to say, they weren't very good at the time.

by Dave Knibb 9/6/2017 2:26:08 PM
@DaveKnibb Nope, Its not David Lloyd either

Liam Livingstone scored a double hundred in the last CC game but who was the previously England qualified player to score a double hundred for Lancs?

by nickcricket 9/6/2017 2:23:05 PM
Paul Edwards reporting from Emirates Old Trafford just before the fall of Ryan McLaren's wicket. Essex are bowling well and Haseeb Hameed is digging in.

by Paul Edwards 9/6/2017 2:22:47 PM
yep

by Rob Little 9/6/2017 2:22:36 PM
@Rob Was that Barlow for Lancs? A well known blocker in the 19th century.

by Dave Knibb 9/6/2017 2:21:56 PM
and according to this, the lowest in F/C is 5!!! out of 69 in 1882 www.espncricinfo.com

by Rob Little 9/6/2017 2:20:32 PM
Hameed had heard you, just hitting his second boundary

by ESPNcricinfo Live 9/6/2017 2:20:05 PM
lowest in tests is the first on this list (26 out of 47, but in mitigation it was when south africa weren't that good at test cricket...) en.wikipedia.org

by Rob Little 9/6/2017 2:19:13 PM
@kieran Quite possibly, but he's doing it under the public gaze. I'm sure he'll come out of it and have a great career but Mark Lathwell lurks in the back of my mind.

by Dave Knibb 9/6/2017 2:18:35 PM
But what is the lowest % of team runs for someone carrying their bat?

by Rav Ioli 9/6/2017 2:17:33 PM
@Rob I'm sure it's something daft like 17 or so

by Dave Knibb 9/6/2017 2:16:49 PM
TEAM 200: Surrey 200/9 (65 ov, lost the toss) v Hampshire
JW Dernbach 5* (8) SC Meaker 3* (26)

by ESPNcricinfo Live 9/6/2017 2:16:43 PM
@DaveKnibb In my experience wallowing in the depths of village cricket, when you get into a survival mentality, you can become focused on killing the ball instead of pushing it around. Weight starts going back during your defensives and it becomes a matter of blocking or going for full blooded shots. Maybe something similar for him?

by Kieran Layer 9/6/2017 2:16:12 PM
Shantry going to have to farm the strike to score his hundred now

by nickcricket 9/6/2017 2:15:58 PM
what's the lowest score someone's carried their bat for? this innings is surely going to challenge...

28.14?

by Kieran Layer 9/6/2017 2:14:08 PM
@Kieran I get what your saying, but what could it be taking out of him mentally? His good defence has kept him in but it must be killing him inside.

by Dave Knibb 9/6/2017 2:13:57 PM
28?

by Matt Warwick 9/6/2017 2:13:27 PM
@nickcricket 28.13.

by Kieran Layer 9/6/2017 2:13:23 PM
you talking with these unbeaten 25 runs Nick? I'd guess late 20s or early 30s
prob 31

by Joe Williams 9/6/2017 2:13:18 PM
Leaning has climbed to second in the Yorkshire averages table, going passed Handscomb and Brooks. Without looking anyone want a punted on what his current average for the season is?

by nickcricket 9/6/2017 2:12:41 PM
@DaveKnibb But most importantly, he's still there!
