Just checking out our t20 batting (seeing as though we have no Essex match to focus on).

Glamorgan - batted second. Lost. (Won the toss)
Sussex - batted first. Won. (Won the toss)
Middlesex - batted first. Won. (Lost the toss)
Essex - batted second. Won. (Lost the toss)
Kent - batted first. Won. (Won the toss)
Somerset - batted second. Lost. (Won the toss)
Gloucs - batted first. Won. (Won the toss)
Glamorgan - batted first. Won. (Lost the toss)
Surrey - batted first. Lost (Lost the toss)
Kent - batted first. Won. (Lost the toss)
Somerset - batted second. Lost. (Lost the toss)
Middlesex - batted second. Lost. (Won the toss)

Batted first seven times. Won six of them. Only defeat was away to Surrey, where our limited overs records is awful anyway.

Batted second five times. Lost four of them. Only win was at home to Essex, who are very much a bat second team.

So we can set a score, and we can certainly defend a score. But Christ are we bad at chasing a score. So our own fault to some extent for choosing to field first against Glamorgan, Somerset and Middlesex.

Worcs are 288/8...obviously they still have Ajmal to bowl last..but from 188/1, its not terrible for us.

Daws and Wheater both sign new deals until 2017.

Good start to the day, winning the toss and batting. Dawson amd Rimmington in for Gatting and Abbott.

[budgetmeansbudget]

Carberry off to one of his scratchy can't get off the mark innings.

[SaintPowelly]

Surprised we batted with all the water about yesterday.

[budgetmeansbudget]

Adams gone, Carberry on nought still after 27 balls. An unconvincing start.

[SaintPowelly]

Oh, and Jimmys gone..meanwhile Carbs has faced 27 dotballs.

[budgetmeansbudget]

Carberry batting like this puts added pressure on his partner.

[budgetmeansbudget]

That has to go down as the worst innings of the season.

[budgetmeansbudget]

The miserable run continuing at Chelmsford and the season fast going tits up.

[SaintPowelly]

Dawson gone, 30/4

[budgetmeansbudget]

We're shite and we know we are.

[SaintPowelly]

Like I said, can't work out why we batted on an outground that rained all day y/day.
