Hampshire versus Nottinghamshire

[Leicestersaint]

Notts are 131 for 5 - better than 122 for 3. Where is Dawson? Carberry had better get some runs.

[Hatch]

I notice Flintoff is playing for Lancs .

 

Hope he comes through OK.

[chrisobee]

Not sure why Dawson is playing though James Vince is in the team. Far as I know his only previous 1st class game was v Loughborough.

155-7 now. Let's hope we have remembered how to bat.

Predictable big 8th wicket partnership lets them off the hook...

[Leicestersaint]

Am I the only one that thinks Pothas is rather unimaginative in his use of bowlers -why not try Adams or a bit more of Carberry? They are now builidng a reasonable score at 264 for 7. Try something different!

We need to remember how to bowl at tailenders :sad:

To be fair he was mixing up the bowling changes quite a bit, bowling the seamers in short spells.

 

Notts earlier score flattered Hampshire quite a bit. Got the wickets through pretty poor batting rather than decent bowling, the wicket looks fairly flat.

[Leicestersaint]

119 for 1 in reply - we need another 300 now!

[bungle]

162 - 1 now, and Lumb has got in the groove.

 

Edit: What a kiss of death that was!

199 for 3 with Adams on 102 no - now we want him to make a big ton (or more).

[Leicestersaint]

254 for 6 - here we go!

[Leicestersaint]

287 for 9 - very poor batting again.

[chrisobee]

This is a real topsy turvy game! Hants after their collapse finished on 295 and Notts are now 45-3, check 47-4 ! 3-14 for Tomlinson.

[Leicestersaint]

But now 190 odd for 5 and again lack of imagination in the bowling. How many dropped catches I wonder?

[Leicestersaint]

We/re starting to look a weak side in bowling and batting.

[Leicestersaint]

14 for 3!!!

[Leicestersaint]

Well i am sorry to have to say that i think Hampshire's performance in the last two CC matches has been extremely feeble.

[Berkshire Saint]

Agreed. A bit worried about how we're going to do in the Championship now. Next game is at Liverpool where there will probably be a result unless it rains, need to win that one.
