Window Cleaner Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 Notts beginning to build a total again after we had them at 40-4. We need to stop bowling bad balls first and foremost, lets all the pressure off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t James Fuller keep Fletcha company too making 77* with Fletcha 59*. Could be a huge win come September to keep away from the bottom of the table.

stevegrant Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Not quite sure what happened with the Notts bowling this morning, but the last few overs were pretty wild. 21 runs off a single over, and the winning runs scored off an absolute pie fired down the leg side and flicked to the very-fine-leg boundary.

It's looking like Surrey to run away with the title, Essex and Somerset as also-rans to take up the next two places below them, and then everyone else fighting to avoid relegation?

Window Cleaner Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 (edited) 127 all out. Much changed scenario today, unless of course we get bowled out for under 40. Wicket is a bit green on top apparently. Edited May 24 by Window Cleaner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevegrant Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Amazing how it seems any team can just have an innings of utter incompetence, even a side as strong as Surrey. Meanwhile we've gone past 200 for the loss of only one wicket, and there was even a little bit of luck (and an excellent catch) involved in that!

wadesmith Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 Organ is a bit of an enigma. His role was to be a batsmen who bowls a bit. He’s now taken 55 wickets at an average of 25. In my life as a Hampshire fan I don’t think any of our spinners have achieved an average that low for their first 50 wickets. Cowley,Maru,Udal,Briggs,Crane ..I think even Warney averaged around 26. I’m starting to wonder if he’s going to become a front line spinner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on his batting the club would probably be looking to release him at some point, but he’s fast becoming a crucial member of the team. He’s in an interesting position.

Lighthouse Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 The 13 man squad for the first game of the blast has been released, I'm guessing Jack and Gubbo will be the two left out and we'll go something like: McD, Vince, Orr, Albert, Weatherley, Daws, Fuller, Howell, Neser, Turner, Wood.

Wood was poor last season too, I’d like to hope young Eddie Jack is being seen as a replacement in the not too distant future. Good to see Turner back in action, he bowled an absolute cracker to dismiss Roy. In other news, Orr has apparently broken his arm, so it would seem we’re going to need Gubbo for the rest of the Blast at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hodgey Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 We’re a funny side, we rarely go after the power play at a time when most do. It really is rare for Hampshire to be ahead after 6 overs. What’s odd about that is we actually have 2 players who like to score fast opening so it must be tactical. With our record it must work for us but seems very odd tactics especially with our depth of batting. We pretty much rely on one of our 5-8s to up the scoring rate at the back end of the innings. Fuller today, Dawson on Thu. Also extremely slow starters so good we have a win already. Concerned Gubbins is anywhere near a 20/20 1st team… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely one of the young players must be a better fit to deputise for Orr. Can't remember how long Gubbins has been with us exactly but the fact that he's only played two T20s in all that time is sort of a giveaway.

Lighthouse Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 We nearly lost that on a fair play decision 😆 What a game though, I thought we’d never do it when we were just knocking singles in those middle overs. Obviously playing Gubbo was a necessity but I can’t see Organ really doing a lot more in a T20. Good to see Wood having a decent game for a change, some very suspect bowling from Turner and Neser at the start though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hodgey Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 We looked like a level up for most of that match. Still really poor in the power play, I still think if we are to win this we need a better game plan for that, at the moment we seem to score slowly and lose wickets. Great bowling and Albert is giving us something different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
