No Kabir Ali yet but I spoke to him yesterday and he is ok but did not want to risk it today. Should be ok for the Notts game next week.

 

Lumb will miss the Notts game as he will not have returned in time following Englands appearance in the T20 final

 

Chris Woods is the new name. Coming on leaps and bounds in the 2nds and although he will not likely get a Championship game this season he will possibly get a limited over game before the season's end.

 

I expect Woods to miss out this time with Griffiths or Tomlinson the other.

Thanks for the info Ron. We have to start winning games,for confidence,as soon as possible.So today would be a good time to start.

[chrisobee]

Any day would be a good time to start winning though I'm expecting us to totally blitz the 20/20, win easily but lose just about every other game !!

[stevegrant]

Wood plays.

 

Carberry, Adams, Vince, Ervine, McKenzie, Pothas, Dawson, Cork, Herath, Wood, Tomlinson

[chrisobee]

Great start, we are 31/2 off 6 overs ! Carberry and Adams both out for 1, Vince 26* Ervine 2*.

Just found out it was on the box via the red button, just in time to see Pothas go!! 118-5 now!

[krissyboy31]

211-8. Could have been worse but Dimi reckons it's not enough!!

TBH the way our bowling is I doubt he would have thought 411 was enough !

Well they're 130 odd for 1 with 13 to go - why can't we bowl??

[badgerx16]

186-1 now :-(

As someone astutely pointed out Saints have had a good season and we're happy so Hants must play like beginners to make us unhappy !

[chrisobee]

Having stated the above I think it is fair to say in most if not all our CCC games we have had spells of being well on top but let it slip, the very 1st game v Essex seeming to have set the tone. We definitely lack an out and out pace bowler ( a fit Simon Jones would make a big difference) and possibly would have been a better option as our overseas player at the present time. Other players ( McKenzie notably) not playing even close to what was expected and others very in and out. Can only hope Lumb, Kabir and Dimi returning will really help and the 20/20's we perform well ( which we really should) and give ourselves some confidence/momentum. Possibly in the absence of Dimi and Lumb the team simply do lack confidence ?

[John B]

Well yet another loss

 

team does look poor

[saint_stevo]

i went. It was awful, they got the total with utter, utter ease.

 

Glad it didnt cost me anything tbh

But not all Hampshire fans come from Southampton. How about the poor skates? They've had a miserable season, so Hants (and possibly Chelsea) will only add to that misery. You have to feel sorry for them

I am sorry but they are a bunch of losers at the moment. I am surprised at how poor Pothas is as captain.
