A preposterously poor decision

[North Shropshire Lad]

Did the bowlers surname help...

A guess at best, incompetence probably, cheating at worst.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Justice done as the Pears hang on, 9 down.

200 overs batted.

Nice to see Josh Tongue fit again

Nice to see Josh Tongue fit again

Was actually his Notts debut! Signed for them in July 2023

To my eyes that’s hit his front leg? If so It’s probably missing the third set of stumps!

Doesn't turn at all either. It's probably a wide in an ODI

Sunak's letter was only the start of it...

 

[Sniffer]

Cracking finish at Chester Le Street as Warwickshire beat Durham by 1 wicket.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Warwickshire chase down 339 and win by 1 wicket at Durham

 

[Tony Towner]

Happy Warwickshire won, but a small part of me is sad that Durham lost, their declaration was to try and win the game rather than prioritise not losing, which is unusual for this time of year. Shame they were penalised rather than rewarded for that.

Should really have won, we were 90/5 at lunch
