Still.... at no stage did I have any hopes for this match when I first looked at the fixture list, so nothing is actually lost.... except for the match, of course

Cricinfo report mentions that a defeat would make it a fifth successive Championship defeat. Gloucs at home next week, they're not very good but I think we're worse so it'll probably be 6 from 6 unless it rains a lot or Bangers scores about 400 runs.

Incredibly, it will be the 1st time we've lost our 1st 3 CC matches of the season.

He came in today in the fourth over, and in the first innings it was the second over (against Sussex he came in the ninth and the first over respectively), so he might as well be opening where hopefully he can blunt the opposition attack instead of inspiring them with 3 cheap wickets every innings.

can you imagine us scoring that? We'd probably struggle to score 359 runs across 2 innings

That is very ominous, they are hopeless but we must be even worse!

Well we'll find out on Sunday when we face their current opponents. Inevitably we'll bat first. Runs in the sun on a Sunday
