always thought that Parry was more of a white ball bowler to be honest... has control but seems to lack the penetration required ion the longer formats..

Indeed he is, but was viewed as the second spinner behind Kerri. If he has any ambitions to be a first class cricketer he needs to be looking elsewhere. He is a fine limited overs bowler and did OK in the Big Bash last season as well.

Lancashire romping away in div 2. No-one to touch them atm.

I wish Smith would get back fit.

I see KP is playing for Surrey against Lancashire in the next championship match.

I have a bad feeling that Lara is going to lose one of his records. Still, a draw would be a decent result.

I know KP scored a double hundred against you before but - and I hope this doesn't put the mockers on - I think he will struggle in this game. Have to wonder if he can still motivate himself now that Straussy has ended his hopes of an England comeback.

Facing Surrey feels so self defeating. You've got Sanga cheaply you say? Well here's a grumpy KP to have a go at.

KP gone for 2, that said conditions are grim for batting.

Bugger.

Ton for the Faulk and another impressive outing for Clark rather saving the bacon.

They have turned it around quickly as well.

Draw against Surrey, I'll take that. Didn't realise it was the Faulk's first first class ton.

I thought he'd have scored one before as well. Draw keeps Surrey well adrift of Lancashire.

Lovely family evening out at Headingly last night. Great game.
