Thank god for that
Should maybe be one an innings? Imagine seeing 3 or 4 a game!
Not sure how I feel about these tactical retirements. Think it's something that will either start happening a lot or get outlawed pretty quickly. It has happened before, in the IPL? I remember Pollard doing something like that in the T20 World Cup? Think he came back on though.
Hate to say it but Carlos is looking like a bit of a weak link at the moment, he's going at 12 an over.
We've sometimes struggled on this ground in recent times...
The Eric Hollies stand looked a bit lively...
On the brink of being dropped amirite?!
Sensational from Benjamin. It looks easy looking back at the scorecards but at 34-4 we were losing that game.
No Hain, Yates in. Not the replacement I'd have expected, interesting.
Same team?
Derbyshire will be kicking themselves. Wow.
Hose and Benjamin rescuing this.
Same side?
Great chance you'd think. We were good last year in my opinion, just ran into an extremely strong Kent side in the quarters.
Farbrace has made it abundantly clear this is the comp he wants won this year. Anything less than Finals Day should be considered a failure.
Entirely fair that Hose starts. I would have invested in Mousley though and had a more even balance between right and left handers.
Stirling
Davies
Bethell
Hain
Benjamin
Mousley
Brathwaite
Briggs
Brookes
Lintott
Miles
You tell could from the reaction of the Yorkshire fielders they couldn't believe that sequence of deliveries from Thompson to Davies and then to get him out they were absolutely cock a hoop. The fielding side will always feel as though they are in the game with him at the crease.
We've struggled up front with the new ball virtually every game and it sets the tone.
He's bowled well, great stuff.
He has lost a yard no doubt, but he's still quicker than 80mph in my opinion.
I'm not sure that speed guns right
