at least the two teams will get some value for their efforts now that the silly 3 point rule was dropped.

Hants have loaned out Crane to Sussex for a month, to join Alsop.

McManus is currently on loan at Northants. So the 3 players I’ve moaned about constantly for 2/3 years are finally away from the club and things are looking up

Crane will probably bowl out Durham given our hopeless batting against spin!

Good start!


1 decent day, then a total thumping...

Well at least my expectations were pretty much zero, so another season of back to back 4 day annihilation wont be too arduous to endure.


A good performance again today. At least exceeding expectation.

Umpiring has been awful in Hants game, 2 awful LBWs both given for Jimmy just because it’s Jimmy.

I didnt count on Pujara batting like Bradman's better twin. Also thought Riwzan was just going to be in for the limited overs stuff, but no... hes come in for the rest of the season apparently.

Instantly adds star batting power into the line up. Although I have no idea why were are batting a guy with a test average of 45 at 7.

Out for 194. Bess nearing a ton too.

Bad morning for N'hants, but well placed.

Might be an interesting finish. Lancs will probably be chasing the highest score of the game to win.

whole of the season is he? I thought he was signed until the end of July or something.... good news for you if he is

I imagine he only batted 7 because of the night watchman
