bungle Posted 5 July, 2010 Share Posted 5 July, 2010 Finally, a return to some proper cricket that is worth paying attention to. Kent won the toss and chose to bat, currently 147-3. Hants team: Carberry, Adams, Dawson, McKenzie, Vince, Ervine, Pothas, Cork, Briggs, Balcombe, Tomlinson. Need a good result really - have picked up in the LVCC, but have drawn a couple of games from winning positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bungle Posted 7 July, 2010 Author Share Posted 7 July, 2010 Bowling going well. Having declared at 549/7, Kent are now 18/2 and Rob Key has retired hurt, although not sure why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrant Posted 7 July, 2010 Share Posted 7 July, 2010 Done by a Cork bouncer, apparently 64/3 now (effectively 64/4 if Key can't come back in) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisobee Posted 7 July, 2010 Share Posted 7 July, 2010 Done by a Cork bouncer, apparently 64/3 now (effectively 64/4 if Key can't come back in) Shame Amjad Khan is carrying an injury, I assume he will bat but can't be helpful. We aren't really going to win though surely !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrant Posted 7 July, 2010 Share Posted 7 July, 2010 118/5, 6 down if Key doesn't return, 7 down if Khan can't bat either Potential innings victory, and having taken full bonus points, that'll be a massive lift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisobee Posted 7 July, 2010 Share Posted 7 July, 2010 Really though we shouldn't laugh at injured players:lol: Just really need to get rid of van Jaarsveld but Kent are still 181 runs behind, no rain in the offing there I hope. Quite gloomy here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithd Posted 7 July, 2010 Share Posted 7 July, 2010 Easy win on the cards. Im off to Taunton Friday for my first away of the season. Few beers, watch the cricket, tear up the town after. OK few more beers and a curry in the Rajpoot, am getting on a bit now. But should be in good spirits for the game tho, looking forward to seeing Tresco et al in action on the tiny ground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bungle Posted 8 July, 2010 Author Share Posted 8 July, 2010 Excellent win. Just what we needed. No posts from Weston Saint yet - was he there? Would like to know more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsacar saint Posted 8 July, 2010 Share Posted 8 July, 2010 Ron[Weston Saint],was definately there monday,had a long chat with him.I think he was going tuesday,not sure about wednesday. I went first two days,wish I had gone yesterday now.I was going today,as I am sure along with a lot of others did not expect us to win in 3 days. Absolutely delighted with the result,hopefully we are out of the bottom two for good now. Finally I hope Corky stays skipper until Dimi is back,he is a more inspirational skipper than NC, and is it a coincidence NC batted well in the game free of the captaincy.

corsacar saint Posted 8 July, 2010 Share Posted 8 July, 2010 Day 1 we bowled well as a team,although the Kent collapse losing 5 wickets for 10 runs or whatever was rather unexpected. Day 2 the [obvious] key was the magnificent partnership between Carberry and Mackenzie,who barely gave a chance between them. [Have to add the Kent bowling minus Amjad was quite ordinary. Joseph is very quick,but has a tendency to bowl an awful lot of no balls..]. In my previous post I did mean NP .[And not NC-freudian slip].
