Ffs what a grab
Can we keep up our recent form?
Fabulous win. You just looked at the Sussex XI at the toss and felt they were on a plate for us. Plenty of pace with Crocombe and Mills but in Yates and Webster we have 2 top order batters who in particular play fast bowling very well. Webster's ability to play powerfully through the covers off the back foot is amazing to see. Hits 4's through there even with a man on the boundary.
Gleeson is automatic, imagine if we had him all comp? Makes such a difference.
Pleased Thompson is being used properly now, he hit his yorkers almost at will. Making a mockery of these claims that he's not a good t20 bowler.
Such an encouraging win, so pleased, looking forward to Friday which will be another good test for us on a ground which we may not be too familiar with.
Cross group game, must win.
We seem to be keeping a keen interest on how he's getting on so,...
3-0-43-0 on Friday
3-0-33-0 today

Webster is going to be a huge miss in both comps, which is testament to how good an overseas signing he has been. Given our record with overseas has been pretty poor over the years we have to give the club a lot of credit for this one.
Ive been hugely impressed with him, this season and last season, and he seems to be popular amongst the group. I'd definitely have him back again.
Yes, got us out of utter strife too, barely raised a mention on here.

Some of Tariq's deliveries had me looking at the umpires to see if they were looking at each other as regards his action. When he appeared to bowl with a higher arm, it appeared as though he got more turn. He is a weird one but we can't fault his economy rates.
The ball he bowled immediately after he recieved treatment on his fingers looked very suspect!

True to form, a young man gets what must have been a very emotional breakthrough near-century aged like 28, after a long journey into professional cricket where he's been told he isn't good enough over and over again, and more Worcestershire players went out of their way to congratulate him on his knock than posters on this forum could stir themselves to comment on it.
I mean, I know it doesn't have the same allure of saying Davies is rubbish for the 19th time, but still.
Its rarely very active on here when we've won. When we're struggling though...
Right from when Zen got going you just felt there was only one winner tonight.
Zen 99 :( thats broke my heart.
Think he got dropped v Notts and only played v Somerset due to Hain being absent.
No Ethan Brookes for Worcestershire, broken thumb.
Express & Star reporting that Garton will be available to play as a batter.
Gunna be hot

Some strong sides assembled, notice a sighting of the lesser-spotted Gleeson. Who is AS Nahal by the way? Is he a regular opening bat?
Sometimes opens, more often than not comes in middle order. He's only 17.
This is what i feared yesterday, Leach getting to work on a pitch breaking up with Ogborne roughing it up. This is gonna be hard.
Racist too.

Overton is a right w*****. Embarrassing behaviour.
As a matter of fact Somerset fans & players seem to be tossers.
Oh what happened?
Overton stepping right up to Malik, mouthing and then still chuntering way after the over was finished.
I noticed that, he's incessant.
