  1. I see that Crane has been loaned to Glamorgan, all formats for the coming season. Probably just as well, hardly played for us last season.
  2. Vince having a not so great winter, average in the Big Bash and not better in the Gulf T20. Too much cricket perhaps.
  3. Ah the cricinfo table isn't accurate then.
  4. So the points deduction cost us second place in the end. Even for a match that we lost. Do Essex ever get points deductions for the turnip patches that they turn out to favour their spinner? Anyway good end to the season.
  5. Don't see that happening at all. Maybe someone from another county.
  6. Poor batting again. We just can't bat against good seamers.
  7. Easy to say, but yesterday we were 32/4 , Vince was dropped on 16 and Dawson could have been given out caught but the umpire (and Dawson himself) thought otherwise. Yadav said he'd caught it, Dawson said oh no you didn't and the umpire went with him. So at the end of the day we got lucky this time and perhaps didn't on other occasions.
  8. Well, a championship win at Chelmsford. Extremely well played , made a respectable first innings total, kept Essex down in their run chase and a big partnership between Vince and Dawson, when we were at 32/4, set up the win. Bring on Surrey at the Aegeas.
  9. Well, I couldn't begin to speculate on the motivation of the players but the bowling line up for this game was just wrong, having lost the toss again. Nothing in the wicket for the slow bowlers who just got smacked around by all and sundry. So without a little more help from the weather we'll probably get beaten by an innings again. With Warks and Lancs not very far behind us on points we could easily lose 2 places in these two difficult games. Fortunately Lancs aren't getting much play though.
  10. Probably, some rotation perhaps. As our retained list is amongst the last to be made public we don't really know yet what the plan is for next year. I can see Holland being released and maybe Crane as well if some other county is interested by him. Currie has gone on loan to Leics for their last three games so maybe he'll be off as well.
  11. Only going with 3 seamers for this game looks to be a bad decision. Dawson is getting absolutely hammered by the Essex tail.
  12. Bit of a poor day with the ball. We managed to get 5 Essex wickets earlier on but since tea Essex are piling on the runs. Slow bowlers looking totally ineffective.
  13. Two down and well behind the rate. One of the great one-day cock-ups of our time.
  14. Obviously nothing in the track for our spinners and they leaked runs regularily. Currie isn't an economical bowler and apparently we dropped the odd catch or two. We may get the 271 needed but really with them at 89/6 we shouldn't have to. Crane and Currie troubled me, I wasn't wrong.
  15. Hope we haven't thrown this away by poor bowling choices.
