I'll reserve judgement till Lancs bat. But I fully expect them to implode in the powerplay and lose by a huge margin.

Or they might surprise us all.

Where’s LL?

Did his hamstring against Derbyshire

The highest T20 scores in domestic cricket in England.....

Amazingly was that the first wide or no ball?

 

[DTKOAG]

At last

 

[jimharri]

Some knock by the daywalker. 116 off just 54 balls. 8 4s, and 10 6s. Nearly 215 of a strike rate. Like taking candy from a baby.

 

[BringBackSwales]

That Luxton can bat, not seen him before. Looks a better batsman than any of the top 3 for England, well against Lancashire’s bowlers anyway

 

[BringBackSwales]

3 bad dropped catches, glad he found it amusing

 

[bavarian blue]

Oh what a circus !

Lancs need to get around 90 from the first 6 overs to have any chance.

 

[crooky]

Chin up. I'm watching the Northants game and they reached 237. Which you'd think would be comfortable enough....

Derbyshire are on 104/0 after 7 overs!

So every chance for Lancs to do the same with their batsmen.

I'd open with Buttler instead of Jennings

 

[BringBackSwales]

Jennings opening over Buttler? Mental

 

[BringBackSwales]

Game over

BLATHERWICK!!!!!

 

[Pubteam Lomas]

I’d swap Zak Crawley for an 84 year old Geoffrey Boycott

He could play this is Indian attack with a stick of rhuuuubarbbbb, he could!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, on the train home from Victoria. At least Lancs utter incompetence allowed us to get home before the Oasis crowd made it back from Heaton Park! That game was done once we started dropping the catches. You can't drop those in a Test Match. Let alone a T20!

sometimes he used to say 'I can play thee with a bus ticket...' when he got out they asked "'as somebody bent yer ticket'

No surprises tonight.

Other than a cow being chased around the party stand by 8 or more bloodthirsty butchers.

Yeah, Salt at significant fault with that.

Was a great atmosphere down there wasn’t it, but right from the off Lancs were on the back foot. I’d like to say the toss was the difference, but it was probably that innings from Bairstow. (But yep, he was one of those dropped!).
