Strange strategy this morning, if it is that, see off 10 overs without forcing the scoring rate and then accelerate .

Not too bad the start of our second innings. Doubt if the weather will allow a result though. Very doubtful lbw décision against Gubbins and Albert looks strangely subdued.

Wicket is obviously helpful. Glamorgan should be deducted the number of points they have more than us +1 because of it ...

Never mind, someone will surely find some sort of positives from this latest débâcle.

Enough to show up our shite batting for the nième time this season.

Honestly you can't possibly know what effect observing the opposition had or did not have. As I've said before, if it is valueless clubs wouldn't do it, or employ analysts etc.

All in all a very poor showing from Saints.

Probably not interested in the Carabao Cup. Still at 25 quid they could make an effort. Suppose it's not their fans paying

Wow, 3 Liverpool defenders skinned for pace. Criminal, seeing their cost.

Lost, good effort from the lower middle order. Might have done better but for the leg side hoicking that cost us at least 3 wickets.

I think they've sold everybody. Sack race must be a right affair between Maresca and De Zerbi.

No surprise really, we've been heading down these last two seasons. Fundamental problems not adressed, no real openers, poor captain who doesn't even merit his place in the side,no real spinner and one reliable seam bowler. Plus head in the sand reliance on "young players" who've failed time after time. We need to get 2 openers, Gubbins at 3, don't suppose Lehmann will stay on,Albert at 4,Mayes at 5 and keep wicket, new spinner who can bat a bit,then perhaps Neal, Abbott and 3 other players.

But not for Hampshire and the doings of Manchester Super Giants are no affair of ours. Perhaps we need to get their bowling coach, don't think we have one at all.

You could make that case but surely not Lehmann, he, yesterday just didn't look interested in hanging about nudging ones and twos as required.

No but seriously, do these players ever use their brains a bit or is slogging just a reaction that they can no longer control?

Ffs Lehmann what was that about? Can't be arsed?

What can you do, our bowling, Abbott apart, is sub-standard and tends to be expensive. Baker may well be a top bowler one day but right now he's erratic and lacks control.

About 2 years ago....Since we went into economic mode.

Hampshire are hard to watch with any enthusiasm just now. It's just so sub par in every sector.

Baker needs to slow down his bowling and control it better.

Day looking to end with our innings in tatters. Pity we had such a great start with the ball. Couldn't finish them off which is a recurrent event and the batting is absolute rubbish as per usual.

Getting a bit sloppy now.

Annoying tail wag. Bess, same as usual.

Pretty good today but Jack needs to tidy up all these leg side balls.

Can't see how being particularly crap would make you popular, well apart from Skates fans that is.
