That's a massive blow. He's saved/won aot of games in his time here

All we can do now is thank him for his service.

34 overs in and Miles hasn't bowled, any reason? Or just lack of faith from management and captain

Surely the end of the road for Robinson and probably others in the coaching staff

Oh dear

What a fabulous innings from Smith

Let's try and avoid another white ball knockout stage collapse.

Need Taylor out else we might be chasing 300

This does scupper our chances and seem like an odd time to have a game if you're not gonna pick the best players available.

Wylie for Yates as said above. Perhaps the new lad Malik comes in for Sheikh?

Would anything less than a white ball trophy and avoiding relegation be classed as a successful season from here?

So I'm assuming 18:30 then for this. There has absolutely been time since the rain stopped for 10 overs

What is the latest time they can play to in this comp?

Off again. We must be pretty close to an abandonment as can only lose up to 8 more overs

I can only think that they won the toss and made the choice before they knew it would be rain affected? The forecast this morning didn't suggest it would be as affected as it has been. Even so, they looked like bowler friendly conditions this morning.

I left the ground at 1:45 as thought the covers were gonna be doing the hokey cokey all day. But looks line we might finally be getting some play!

Back bowling in the Hundred tonight.

Let's how he can stay fit for the rest of that tournament and be back for us come Blast QF.

I've watched back the Yates LBW appeal on Burns and Barnard on Sibley and both looked nailed on!

That umpire was determined to not give any

Bringing Lintott on for OHD seems strange

I've lost count of how many they've edged. At least four edges have gone for four plus other ones not gone to hand

Well that was tight!

Anyone know when we last won by one wicket?

Yeah I think that was the most he has shown his talent, there is definite promise there.

Rhodes looks in decent nick in the first two games as well.

Heading over for this one, first time at Grace Road!

If Yates and Burgess are both injured then we are in big trouble.

They have a very strong batting lineup for this format so we need to be on it with the ball.
