When does pessimism about a result become realism and acceptance of impending defeat ?

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

278 to win and a top order made of plywood. Hmmm….

This game eill be lost because of their last wicket stand in the 1st innings and the last 2 in the 2nd.....129 runs.

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.

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

Nice flurry of wickets at the end.

Looks like a strange situation on Sunday. Final day of mens game playing while women have a T20 on the nursery ground next door.

I occasionally walk through the gate in Telegraph Woods with the dog and watch a bit of the 2nds but i imagine they will prevent that access

Entrance is free for the T20.

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

They’re just not very good.
