Not overly happy with this decision. He's still young and has a lot to offer. I think we might regret letting him go.

Very good signing. I still feel we need another batsman.

Bears win! Scrapping for 3rd place next week.

28/2. Ridiculous decision by the umpire to give Mousley out stumped! His foot never left the ground! Albeit by a toe.

14/1 Davies gone lbw. We need 44 off 42 balls.....hopefully we can do this!! Sun has come out....

Looks like this is heading for a draw. Yates bowling some spin - only a part time spinner. Middlesex now 227/4. 33 ahead.
Why doesn't Mousley bowl his spin? I know they use him for white ball cricket, but he always looks threatening with his spin speed variation.

Great from OH-D! 4 wickets for 19 runs, he just gets better and better! Middlesex now 104/9.

Well done in the end! Happy to be proved wrong. However, it was poor from the top order. Burgess and OH-D got us out of jail.

Not good to lose Barnard at this point. It'll be difficult to win now. I'd rather it petered to a draw than setting up a contrived result.

Guys, we're playing the worst team in this division which just shows how bad we are at the moment.

What a disappointment with Norwell. Does the back injury put his career in doubt? He hasn't bowled a single ball this season. Doesn't sound good at all.

How bad was that! Absolutely thrashed at home! All that effort in the group stage wasted.

Any update on Norwell's fitness? I think it was suggested that he might be fit in September for the resumption of the County Championship matches? If so, good news! However, it's worrying that he hasn't bowled a single ball this season. So disappointing after last year's heroics in keeping us in Division 1.

I really can't get enthusiastic about the Hundred. Just a crude slog-fest! A poor show after such a gripping Ashes series.

Too many players missing, particularly the bowling attack which is threadbare. Really miss Norwell who hasn't bowled at all this season. Even our best bowler Rushworth is now out with a hamstring problem. Even so, after all the good work yesterday, the collapse was poor today.

A lot of pressure accommodating the wretched Hundred competition. This also caused the Ashes series being condensed into just over 6 weeks which is downright ridiculous. However, 60 all out is a disgrace.

Good to see Surrey defeated. Hoping Somerset win the final. Fed up of seeing other Counties at Edgbaston and not the Bears on their own ground. Several things have conspired against us: Woakes messed around by England (no surprise there). Our white ball captain Moeen Ali called up late due to Leach's injury. Hassan Ali should've stayed until the end of July as originally contracted, but called back early by Pakistan. They need to ensure that the two group winners automatically qualify for the final, particularly as Somerset and the Bears bossed their groups. A nonsense that they have to play a quarter final.

They must have updated and corrected the website as it now shows Hain as playing. When I looked around 8:00am his name wasn't on the team list.

No mention of Sam Hain? Surely not injured? The squad really looks down to the bare bones.

Bears 104/5 with 14 overs gone. Strange that England released Dan Lawrence for this.....why wasn't Woakes released in the last test?
