Barnard/Bethall and Miles to miss out ?

For this season we've decided to recruit 4 medium-fast bowlers..very odd.

I have a feeling Jamal will struggle to get into the side and therefore will only be playing one overseas bowler for most of the season. Either Jamal misses out or one of Garton / Gleeson

Looking at our fast bowling line up

Woakes, Ali, Jamal, Miles, Booth, Gleeson, Garton

With Lintott and Biggs were only going to use 3 of them with Mousley as well.

Are we actually going to play Gleeson and Garton ? We'd have been better with an overseas batter or two.

Great effort from Bethall and Lintott with seam bowlers doing a real good job to. Rae is looking like a very handy bowler

Need to be positive in the second innings, we can't let them back in the game

Another low score for Mouseley

What is the point of the seconds? Benjamin scoring a ton of runs yet doesn't get a chance when Mouseley continues to perform poorly this season.

You need to trust young talented players long term however, there has to be a consequence of consistent poor returns

Following on wasn't an issue, I think it was the right call.

The awful second innings performance has cost us this game. I think it's time to give Benjamin a go in the side over Mouseley. Worth him trying to find some from in the Blast.

We need a bit of luck here.

Our second innings was truly awful

Back to the shocking batting we're so used to !

As someone slightly older than Norwell with disc problems and Sciatica...I can't imagine how Norwell could come back and bowl game after game.

I don't have the level of support Norwell has however, disc issues are very delicate and must be incredibly tough for a bowler

I think it might be time to move on from Woakes at international level. He won't be going to the ashes or even Pakistan/NZ so I think it is probably time to look at likes of Potts/Atkinson

I would hope this would mean Woakes plays a few seasons for Warwickshire but more than likely would see him at Big Bash/IPL and other t20 leagues

Great start again, shame about the constant buffering on the feed.

Can play both of them

I do like the fact the likes of OHD are having to work really hard for their wickets.

The kookaburra seems to be levelling out the weather conditions and giving the batsman some help..I don't see any issue with it

Yep batting does look weak...in fact if age catches up with Rushworth and OHD were really struggling

Club is betting on Mousely, Bethall and Yates becoming consistent.

Think Yates did fine however, I'd expect the younger lads to improve next season with a bit of consistency particularly Mousley

Talking to management after the game, they felt the umpires just wanted to go home early.

If that's the case a formal complaint should be made by the club

Couldn't ask for better weather for cricket at the end of September.

No wonder ppl my age can't be bothered to watch county cricket

Trying to explain to my wife why were not playing now.. I can't explain it myself. If there's standing water why are the groundsman doing nothing?

How are we not on here?!

Madness..delays today and the first day when we should have been on way before 2.10pm have likely robbed us of a very good day of cricket

The lads are playing with a football...really dangerous outfield..

Best weather of the week by miles and we're not playing

Sums up the stupidity of cricket at times
