ECB embarrassing Nottingham having this 'test match' here.

As long as the usual cunts get their ashes tests whilst the other major stadiums have to fight for the crumbs every 4 years that's all that matters.

Lancs vs Zimbabwe would be competitive.

It might not be judging by today's efforts (from Lancs).

It’s cricket’s version of the Europa League final.

Test cricket need two leagues! This Zimbabwe test match is pointless! As a test team if you can't be arsed improving you deserve 2nd division!

Is Jimmy Anderson injured ? He played the last Lancs game but not involved in this one.

This England bowling attack is powder-puff, good job we are not playing the Aussies.

Another 5-0 bumming incoming at this rate.

No he's fulfilled his quota of games for the season

Rested for the T20s to then get a 100 wildcard pick...

I was at his last t20 11 years ago when he was the most expensive bowler by far with 52/0 costing us the trophy.

Biggest concern for me here is that Zimbabwe are scoring at 5 an over. How are we gonna manage down under, when we can't control the flow of runs against Zimbabwe

Really piss poor. Mind you, everything at Old Trafford has been poor for quite a while,

Won the 2 other times after relegation, but the divestment in the CC has meant will be bottom at the first t20 break.

Also managed to lose first 6 OD games last year after getting to the final in 2022 and 2nd in the other two comps as well.

It is all about profits now and the Hundred.

Lancs should be demoted to minor counties league….

Rehan Ahmed 2 centuries against them while only scoring 50 odd in 6 innings inbetween!!

Dunno about you but I have an affinity with Lancashire CCC but I couldn’t give a fuck about the 100

Sixfer for Bashir. Whilst I don't think he's the next Graham Swann by any means, he looks a tidy bowler, better than any other young spinner in the CC currently.

You should do, it is the reason Lanky have gone to shit.

Nothing to worry about.

ECB just told them they don't want to give out refunds. Rain expected tomorrow and the test gets wrapped on on Monday.
