Fair play to Somerset, they've been by far the best team this year, it's absolutely well deserved.

Looked dead and buried in the quarters against Warwickshire until Dickson smashed 70 from 20 odd balls!!!!
But goes to show they are a class side.

9 county fixtures today , 8 washed out. Surrey guaranteed another title.

Had 4 days lined up for Lancs, at least we’ll get 5 points

8 these days, it went to 5 in 2023 and made no difference so up to 8 in 2024.

This is a good watch and the Alice Cooper story had me in stitches..

 

[BringBackSwales]

Excellent to see Sam Curran getting battered around the park by the Ireland batters (tbf all the England bowlers have been)

Now seems intent on stopping Salt getting his hundred. At least the **** is out just now

We've finally beaten Ireland in a T20 international.

I wonder if Geoffrey and Tuffers found anything to chat about off camera?

The Great Man knows onions
What he knows about cricket and batting kids wanting to play cricket should be made to listen and watch.

That wind-up by Jonathan Agnew on Boycott losing his 100th 100th innings and has to change the record books still makes me laugh

Intriguing last day at the Oval. The winner wins the league in all probability.

Surrey need 128 more with 6 wickets left.

Geoffrey is spot on about Tuffers and batting and for me Tuffers being the clown and making the “Batting expert” ruins it for me! Tuffers was a good spinner for England but anything else in the team utter useless!

 

[bavarian blue]

69 with 3 wickets.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

22 with 1 wicket.

In other news, what is the point of Jimmy Anderson playing anymore? He’s bowled 4 overs in 4 days.

Like Tuffers said, Bowlers are not in the team for making runs, Bowlers getting runs are a bonus for the team
I could listen to Boycott all day and he speaks the truth, Sometimes the truth hurts and people don't like it

The only thing is he's a rag fan, but everybody has a weakness

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Get in Notts!

One thing he and Geoffrey had in common….

Ireland's Call getting full throated support from all their team and the crowd on their feet - contrast God Save The King which some of our XI don't seem to know the words to.

 

[johnny crossan]

On TNT - Sonny Baker getting a dozen off him early doors- not ready for this level.

Staylbridge getting hammered at Lords
Hmmm
