Need to break this partnership very quickly

Dissent from Gloucs batsman this time. Slow mo on You Tube indicates it came off his arm and not glove. Still it goes someway to evening it up!

27-3 Could we, could we?

27-3 Could we, could we?

Of course the umpires have a better view then we have. However, the immediate reaction of players to being given out says a lot. As umpires will not change their decision they can't be cheating in their reaction.

147 LEAD - Can we win it from here?

Certainly a lot of head shaking from Yadav Davies and Brookes. Perhaps the umpire wants to get home early!

Paul I wish we were playing to their level of mediocrity - at least it would be an improvement

The way all the batsmen have played I think they have all given up before the innings started. Playing as though it's the T20 or even the Hundread

5 down - but the caught behind looked very suspect.

3 down inside 4 overs !!!!

A lead of just 19. The top order really do have to perform for once if we are to have a chance of winning.

Other facts to consider - they scored 8 sixes compared to our zero and their score was achieved in 30 less overs.

really need some wickets quickly. Kent will win their game and Somerset shouod not lose so us getting win points is essential.

19 wickets falling on day one in Southampton!! Kent over 100 ahead and 3 bowling points in the bag. Looks like we have to beat Gloucs with max bowling points.

Not looking so good down on the south coast - Hants 41/6

Kent have failed to pick up any batting points. We need to move on and get to 200 or better still 250. I think Sibley will be sorely missed next season.

A great comparison Mad - perhaps Strauss should be told!!

One very simple way of fitting all the games in would be not to have long gaps between the games. Example this month. The Somerset game finished on 15th with the next game not starting until 20th. Same with the Blast which could be played on consecutive days if necessary (only 40 overs per day compared to 96 in CC). I agree with Mad the CC needs to be with at least 9 teams per league

Surely it was Hain's call as he was running to the keeper's end and the ball was at that end of the field.

22 overs left - 6 an over to win !! On Youtube it looked a shocker for Burgess
