2014 Hampshire Thread

We talk about declaring overnight but surely you declare just before the mornings play starts. Presumably you have to give 10 minutes notice, so by 10.50?

[SaintPowelly]

Yeah, we need to declare at 10:49, but the term is still overnight.

[budgetmeansbudget]

I know Wood is not out and could conceivably score a quick 20 or 30 runs, but he may not and we may waste 5 or 10 minutes scoring not many and then another 10 minutes for change of innings, so we have to declare before play starts?

[SaintPowelly]

Adams implied we would declare, it would be stupid not too.

[haggishants]

Cricinfo reckons we've declared. Is that right? \Waiting for the commentary to start.

[SaintPowelly]

yep, 96 overs to get stuck in.

[haggishants]

Great. Good day in prospect. Just wish I had the time to get over to Southampton.

[haggishants]

Yay... Kevan James has just turned his microphone on!

[haggishants]

Robson gone.

[SaintPowelly]

well done Coles, shame we didn't do that 1st innings.

[haggishants]

Commentator's wicket. Thank you Kevan! 31/2 .

[SaintPowelly]

well done Coles, days like this I wish we had Tahir or Abbott and days like y/day Maxwell.

[haggishants]

35/3 ... surely on our way to a win now?

I hope you're right Haggis, but we don't need to get over confident yet. Nice it was Eckerslike aswell.

[SaintPowelly]

2nd for Wood, 1 more before we can think about winning.
