A comfortable win but felt we should have won in fewer overs.
I agree about the camera work - absolutely dreadful even missing the bowling of balls but as it's free we can't really complain!!
At least Benjamin was not out.

A player who only bats and does not bowl should not be batting as low down as 6 which makes his selection all the more strange. As Gerry says let's hope he proves everyone wrong today although given Derbys' score I hope he is not needed.

I did say a golden duck guaranteed selection!!

A quack for Benjamin. Surely he can't last any longer?!

Guarantees his selection, doesn't it!!!

Can anyone advise how the D/L is looking?

Missed following today's game and sorry to read the scorecard. Jamal 25 in only over and out first ball !! Hassan Ali is hardly an inspiring signing either. Bejamin failed yet again. Should the three of them be dropped for the next game ?

Simply too many singles and should have been tackled when the run rate needed exceeded 10 an over. But at least we saw Hain get a decent score.

Just need to keep it around 8 or 9 an over. Considering Lancs got to 100 in the 9th over the Bears pulled it back really well.

Some pretty poor bowling at the moment.

They should not risk L N in a second Seconds game. They should put him in the game against Lancs or Durham while they have the opportunity. Leave it a week might be too late!!

If I'm reading correctly on here, we have a pace attack who are all crock, one player who is a complete passenger, another who can field but otherwise doesn't deserve a place and we have the wrong wicket keeper. And all but two of the batters play too many stupid shots.
How on earth will we ever manage to win a game?

Absolutely agree - it is obvious to everyone we have been rubbish in our first two games.

Well there are times when I love being proved wrong. Following on Crickinfo that was some performance.

Powerful start now we need a steady partnership to build a good score

I suppose with it being on Sky it won't be streamed!

With the Bears having had to travel back from Durham late last night, it's a bit like the bride turning up late and hung over for her wedding after a night out with the best man.

There speaks a man from experience!!!!!!!!

Do you mean after the durum, durum it's now time to tie the Notts???????? Sorry

Briggs with a wicket maiden. I thought there might have been a change to the plan and let him bowl the next over as a result yet the quicks came back straight away. Couldn't believe how many times the openers played and missed but avoided getting an edge!! The word clinical was used a few posts back with regards our bowling - I thought we were clinical from first to lst ball - excellent.

Robbed again by the weather!!!

I'm inclined to agree - even if no further stoppages Lance would have to score at over 3 an over.

If you get the chance make sure you watch the replay of Will Rhodes catch to get Nathan Lyon, it’s extraordinary.

Yes, extraordinary is the word!!
