I don't know if he has a franchise, but certainly a couple of years ago he got himself a late gig as a lucky loser T20 wild card pick. Was it the final he came in for?

Not very helpful.
when Glamorgan took the new ball he must have checked and not understood because he said........ Van der....something garbled very quietly
I'd love to know, so answers on a postcard please

Yes we lost 4 wickets, but one of those was McAlindon sent out last night to block for 6 balls, and one was lost right on the stroke of lunch. Of course it could have been better, the afternoon saw about 170 runs scored for no wickets, but that was against an old ball and with only half an hour from their one quality bowler, so not as good as that, but not poor. I think I used the word indifferent
I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed the batting performance this afternoon. Once the first half hour was done when vdG was making life tricky for Robinson, I sat back and relaxed. They never looked like they were going to get out and they moved the score along at a right old lick. If only I could feel that relaxed when we are T20 batting

I have no idea what the plan is, but things have gone soft a bit. I keep thinking we should declare and deny them a bowling point, but of course we already have done by being 6 down after 110 overs..... I always forget that
