Lancashire v Kent CC Div 1 25 July 2022

[THEMISSINGLINK]

No play before lunch,which will be taken at 12.30

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

On a more positive note Yorkshire win the toss at Scarborough and elect to bat, 33 for 6 unfortunately against Hampshire

 

[hampshire_exile]

Whilst it’s always good to see Yorkshire struggle, from the point of the title race, I would far rather it was Hampshire who were 33 for 6.

Hampshire are in the mix for the title, whilst Yorkshire won’t finish us above all of Lanky, Hants and Surrey even with a game in hand and even if they win this game

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Due to start at 3 o clock 51 overs today

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Toss will be at 2.30

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Think we could do with winning the toss here and putting them in as it lppks very overcast,and as we’ve only won one toss all season we must be due one

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Kent win the toss and will bowl

Looks a tad short in the batting department.

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Looks a tad short in the batting department.

This track was used for the ODI last week and they’re obviously expecting it to help the spinners day three and four

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Wells c.Leaning b.Saini 35,97 for 3, ball doing a fair bit in gloomy conditions

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Jones lbw b.Saini first ball ,97 for 4, it looks awful for batting out there

 

[Leither]

I try to remain positive about our players but we need better options than Rob Jones if we have any serious chances of winning the County Championship.

I know it's tough out there but I can't remember many decent knocks he's made for us?

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

100 up for Lancs

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Off for rain 112 for 4,hope we don’t get back out tonight

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Close

 

[seasidepaddle]

Absolutely perfect bowling conditions and 2 quality international bowlers too. Shame we couldn't get away 2 or 3 down but 110-3 would have probably been above par given everything.

This is also a used pitch so batting last against Lancs' 2 spinners will not be easy.

 

[basilexile]

This track was used for the ODI last week and they’re obviously expecting it to help the spinners day three and four

Point taken about the wicket. I guess I was trying to be kind to Rob Jones who really does not seem able to justify batting at 5.

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Sundar b.Henry 6 112 for 5

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Lavelle c.Crawley b.Henry 0, 112 for 6,still looks awful out there

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Balls moving a fair bit Croft just dropped behind

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Croft c.Coc b.Henry 31,133 for 7, an absolute snorter

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Bailey b.Henry 0 ,135 for 8 ,another cracker of a ball

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Henry just looks unplayable at the moment

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Wood c.Stewart b.Henry 17,145 for 9
Williams c.Bell Drummond b.Gilchrist 2 145 all out

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Compton c.Sundar b.Bailey 0 ,0 for 1
Bell Drummond lbw b.Williams 5 ,5 for 2

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Crawley c.Wood b.Williams 0 ,12 for 3 ,currently 18 for 3 ,seems brutal out there

 

[norfolkpool]

Lovely to see a pitch not slanted towards the batsmen. Reminds me of the uncovered pitches GB was always on about. Mind you, I think even Geoffrey's mum would have wanted a decent stick of rhubarb to play on this. But what a treat to see technique on both sides of the ball that isn't just heavy bat on short-pitched ball.

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Lunch Kent are 24 for 3 off 17 overs

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

I see the sun is out now and batting doesn’t look as hard

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Denley c.Lavelle b.Bailey 59 ,118 for 4.

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Cox c.Wood b.Bailey 2 ,120 for 5

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Robinson lbw b.Bailey 0 ,120 for 6, what a weird game this is

 

[SeaSeaSeasiders]

222-6, game drifting away here

Leaning c.Wells b.Morley 90 ,223 for 7

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

New ball taken

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Close

Lancashire are 2 for 0 ,123 behind.

 

[Leither]

A bit like the last game . . . behind after the first innings and then win the game

Morley & Sundar to fill their boots on the final day.

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]

Jennings c.Leaning b.Gilchrist 14 ,54 for 1,fifty partnership for the openers

 

[THEMISSINGLINK]
