    Middx now 150 for 8. Ali has taken 2 wickets with the 7th ball of the over following a no ball!

    Why have we prepared such a green top? Don't we want any batting points?

    I could understand it if it had been cold and damp recently, but it's been lovely and sunny for weeks.

    The evidence of the last few years is that it doesn't matter we have a green 'un, a bunsen burner or a road: we do not get big totals first innings, we're more likely to top-score in the second knock when we don't get any bonus points.

    And the very next ball Brookes hits it to a diving Finch that perhaps he should have left for first slip and the chance goes down

    If someone had given us 222 all out before play we'd have taken it. Only Fernandes and last man Brookes failed to reach double-figures so, hopefully, there's enough for our batters if they apply themselves.

    Am I the only one doing a Richie Benaud impression now?

    Have a feeling 222 isn’t a bad score on that pitch at all, a pitch where you never quite feel in

    This pitch has to be one that gives Zak Crawley absolute nightmares, nibbling green top pitch with medium pacers on show. One fears he Won’t be sticking around for long

    Shouldn't it be 222 for 2?

    That's what we want to see, the senior pros setting an example of diligence and valuing your wicket.

    The only game where the 2nd team is in to bat already. I don't understand why we've produced such a "result" wicket.

    They've got other plans for Sunday and Monday that don't involve cricket.

    The bowlers carried the team at Northampton and they’ve started well for us again. The batters need to pay them back, but have started badly again. DBD being bowled without playing a shot is inexcusable.

    I think it never went away. First game's totals of 231 and 171 were in keeping with last season but the fact that the oppo were even worse somewhat disguised that.
