Hampshire CCC 2026

[badgerx16]

Yorkshire's tactical substitution of Richardson for Van Beek has proved effective for them.

( Tongue in cheek ).

Nearing 300 lead but with the forecast need to up the scoring and get them in.

Would be surprised if they didn’t see this home now. Forecast looks dry.

Abbott really looks in the mood in this game, knocking stumps over for fun. Just need to get Bean out in the morning session and we should be able to see it through.

Don't recall saying anything particularly virulent on Friday. Just that Weatherly isn't a D1 opener which he clearly isn't.

Watch Van Beek score a century to round it off.

Friday was one of his brighter days.

Because we played a bit better. There were at least some positives, unlike last week.

Needed that after the first game and Sussex’s start.

Essex got hammered by Somerset.

Good time to play Yorks with no Bairstow, Root or Brook (latter duo set to play in next round). But you can only beat what’s in front of you and much-improved display.

Brown ton, and good 50s Lehmann, who looks a good addition and Prest.

Abbott sublime again, Baker’s burst first innings was key in demolishing their top order and the tail didn’t enjoy him today. 

@John B I get what you’re saying but Weatherley is 29 and has a FC averagevof 24 which is frankly at least 10 below what it should be. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Weatherley

We can’t have a tailender opening - which is his record over the last couple of seasons. I’d imagine he’s averaging quite a bit less than 24 which won’t make him a living much longer full-time in cricket. Toby Albert was slow starting last year but the white ball helped him kick on in all formats. Joe is older and his England u19 promise is long behind him.
