What about that Samit Patel? He's a big unit.

He makes me feel like I could show up to Trent Bridge and get a bowl.

Great to see Stokes coming out of retirement to play in the 50 over World Cup

Good bowling from Lancs in the one day cup. Hampshire all out for 234, after being 131-0 after 24 overs.

...but not the batters, lost by 11 runs.

Fair play to him. He must have more hope than I do. I really struggle to see past India and Pakistan for winning the World Cup later this year.

Can't believe Brook isn't in the ODI squad..would definitely have him in ahead of Malan and Roy!

Who is John Turner.?

Good start by Lancashire, bowled Surrey out for 153 in the Metro Bank One Day Cup.

It is a seamer's paradise, look how all the wickets fell bar the 10th when Griffiths started to slog.

It aint a formality even though it is normally a good batting strip.

Bit like a 'gangsters paradise'? Do they prefer leg spin?

I'm all for letting people on the pitch after play but not at lunch, everyone just wandering around the outfield like a public park, I've played for clubs where the groundsman would go fucking mad at this!

Pretty sure this is Surrey's fielding unit, no wonder they seldom lose

Lancs 11-0 off the 1st over, decent start - game available on



Manchester Originals Women about to start on Sky away at Trent Bridge to the Rockets

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Lancs 11-0 off the 1st over, decent start

Calm before the inevitable collapse to 115 all out.

Surrey should have declared.

Is that you Ben? Just because you have come out of retirement doesn't make you an expert, pfft....

 

[bigstanhibbert]

Lancs 39-0 after 6 overs, so far so good...

Bit of a rout now, 55-0 after 7.2 overs

Lancs after 9 overs 69-0, including 11 fours

Lancs win with just under 28 overs left 157-0

 

[Protein Junkie]

Great win by Lancs. It will help a bit if Notts beat Kent and Hampshire beat Yaarrrkshire.
The latter is looking good particularly.

 

[Corky]

First win of 6 in a row needed to win the cup.

10 points will be minimum for top 3 so the NRR gain helps.
