I think it is 25 overs minimum.

I think somebody on BBC posted before full refund for <15 overs, 50% refund for 15-30 overs.

 

[Corky]

Call me an old cynic but am I right in suggesting that if they commence for just one over, they don't have to give any refunds out?

Is that in "the spirit of the game?" if true

It is up to an including 15 for half refund and 30 for no refund.

It used to be 10 and 25.

The refund won't affect the host as is covered by the ECB insurers, but obviously could affect future premiums. The crowd can drink more beer etc on days when there is promise of play but rained off, so there may be little or no loss on rain days.

Well I give this half an hour

Well I give this half an hour

Half empty glass?

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Come on, England, let's be having the cunts.

 

[SkyBlueFlux]

Half empty glass?

Turns out it was actually about 90% full.

 

[waspish]

Well they got one over in but am sure they got have more than that to pay back the tickets

 

[SkyBlueFlux]

Even if they do get out I can’t see them getting any extra time with the lack of light. Need to make the most of every over.

Marsh spanking us to all parts again.

 

[SkyBlueFlux]

Yessss

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Marsh spanking us to all parts again.

You’re welcome everyone

It’s not that difficult, humid, low cloud, floodlights on, you pitch it up and watch it move all over the place, wickets come.


Who wants to bet they’ll keep bowling bouncers at Head all evening until he’s on 50?

 

[MCFC1993]

Important wicket that. 1 more soon and we could have them all out for 200.

 

[waspish]

Big wicket that get wood on because if it’s swinging he will make life unplayable for the bottom order

 

[DTKOAG]

Marsh spanking us to all parts again.

Not anymore

 

[SkyBlueFlux]

Think they might try and give Wood a full day’s rest if they can. Assuming we don’t get them all today.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Line and length is the logical ploy here yet we’re aiming for Head’s head.

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Get in.

 

[jimharri]

I'm assuming they can stay out (weather and light permitting) for at least an extra hour this evening(and sunday and monday, if needed)?

 

[MCFC1993]

Huge wicket.

This is on.
