    7 matches being played today. It was sadly inevitable who the first batsman to be dismissed would be.

    Worth having a look at the Somerset pitch if you get the chance. Basically indistinguishable from the outfield

    Leaning needs to step up, has been a passenger for so many games now and needs replacing if he doesn’t get anything again

    With our normal approach to batting you should arrive just in time to watch the Middlesex first innings.

    Only Compton and Muyeye of our top 7 have justified their place this season to date. Averages:

    Compton     66.16
    Muyeye        55.60
    Crawley       25.16
    Finch           23.40
    Evison         14.60
    Leaning       13.00
    DBD               9.42

    Muyeye caught at gully on the stroke of lunch for 29 (53). Leaning is 21* (40)

    75-4 (28.3)

    Brilliant catch at gully by Higgins (again) sees the end of Leaning for 26 (50). 

    80-5

    Have we got any batting points yet? 🤣

    Are we liable to finish with the lowest batting points this season?

    Another great day watching Kent. 90-6.

    90-6 Evison LBW for 5(13). Looked a harsh decision.

    Richards has come in at 8

    Richards has come in at 8
    And promptly drives one straight to cover for a three ball duck

    91-7

    Genuinely pathetic, every single year it’s the same story but yet we end up with exactly the same batting line up again

    It's a good job we can't follow on!

    Yet again sub standard first innings batting. Not sure our bowling is up to dismissing Middlesex for a low score though this time so a draw will probably be a good result if we can eke one out.

    Benjamin gone, caught behind, throwing his hands at a very wide delivery for 9 (22)

    102-8 (39)

    Garrett caught fishing at slip for 5 (17)

    112-9 (45)

    Rowland-Jones was unfortunate to only get 4 caps, a combination of badly timed injuries and stiff competition for bowlers of his type.

    And now Kashif Ali is struck on the arm. Hope he will still be able to not just carry on batting but also bowl without hindrance. 
  • Addick Addict
    Addick Addict Posts: 39,858
    Parkinson snaffled down the legside trying to pull a short ball for 17 (50). Kashif 10* (16).
    129 all out (50.3)

    Our scores this season:

    231 all out
    171 all out
    218 all out
    316-2
    393 all out
    124-6
    129 all out

    So, we've only turned up twice in seven innings with Compton (2) and Muyeye (1) hitting tons in those

    One to Evison - yet another catch by Leaning. That's his ninth of the season which is more than our wicket keepers have taken in total. 

    65-3

    Richards is all over the place. He's gone for 21 in his three overs but another two balls have been given as four byes each when he was lucky to get away with them not being given as 10 wides in total

    79-3 (21)
