Carse looks finished for the duration, why do we pick these crocks?

Nobody better?

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Wasted a review. Should have waited to the state of his foot.

Pant looks absolutely fucked. What a ridiculous shot.

two thirds of all our bones are in the feet, looks like he's got an extra one now ;-(

 

[waspish]

Nice one stokes got the main man out and pants looks like is a bad foot injury

That can’t be true. Must be about a quarter.

Green Bowled, what an Innings I hope the Aussies don't notice his form before the Ashes

Hes our best player currently

It’s probably the dread metatarsal. A tiny injury but very debilitating.

He certainly is. His highest FC score before coming to Lancs was 60 odd, and he's now hit 3 Centuries, fair play to him

correct, I must find and destroy the person who told me that - actually I think 50 years on it's unlikely that will be necessary.

Sounds like their metatarsals are well calcified by now.

Think they just forgot to prepare it.

At least they haven't got Joel Garner anymore. Imagine facing him on that pitch.

 

[Uncle Wally One Ball]

Old Uncle Wally opened the bowling today against the MCC. Loved it. Got well beat mind, obviously. 2 wickets though, one bowled and one nicked off behind. Lovely. Beers on

 

[Stiff Little Wingers]

Archer reverting to type.
The Bellingham of English Cricket.
No consistency and all about him.

He's only bowled in 2 and a half innings!!!Give him a chance.
I assume if Joe Root has a couple of low scores you'd call him shit

 

[KS55]

I like his bowling too. Gives us a measure of control. Whether he is a possible for the Ashes I don’t know, but he is a very decent all rounder by any standards.
I’m not sure what he’s contracted for at Lancs, but I hope he can stay for some time. We might need him for the T20 final.(Here’s hoping!)

Looks like the typical club 2nd XI track when someone's forgotten to prepare a wicket and use the one the 4ths played on last week!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Nevizade]

it's a weird scorecard
1st innings - all seam wickets
2nd innings - half the wickets to spin, after the first 3 batsmen got in
3rd innings - two spinners opened the bowling, taking all 10
4th innings - two spinners open the bowling, take half the wickets before Banton decides to end it as fast as possible.

Very odd for a seamer to prosper for 2 1/2 hours, and then it to turn into a spinner's paradise.

Warnie always used to say if it was seaming around it'll take spin as well. Helps when you can turn it like him mind.

 

[johnny crossan]

Bellingham strikes!

 

[waspish]

Archer is on it this morning

Archer is on it this morning

Looks like the ball is moving a lot more today...not sure that's great news for us given we'll probably be batting half the day.
