Can we make it 2 in 2?
I would expect Mills to come in for this one.

I would hope all 4 players that didn't play last night play tonight.
Make sure the red ball team players are rested and ready for Sunday.
I would also wish that Bopara, Mills, Burgess and Khan don't play. But that ain't gonna happen.

Do you think Pujara will play Sunday now he has
been left out of the India squad?

Glamorgan must lick their lips when they see us next on the fixture list :-(

Glamorgan must lick their lips when they see us next on the fixture list :-( Square, nothing like a bit of overconfidence to take advantage of. Fortunately our red ball campaign has seen more application and robustness than out T20. Why did we bat first tonight? Did ok bowling first last night? |

Shadab has decided to turn up now it’s too late.

Shadab has decided to turn up now it’s too late. Yes, all meaningless. Even though he got 4 wickets last night, he also bowled some filthy balls. |

Looked like the wheels were falling off at one point. It’s been a very good recovery proving the spirit is good in this team.

At 44-4, never expected that we would even get close to 182-6.
Excellent performance from Shadab, well supported by Burgess, Coles and some generous Glamorgan fielding. Very expensive dropped catch when Shadab had only made 5.
It is unfortunate Shadab couldn't find his good form earlier in the tournament. Clearly, a very talented player in this format.
We have a competitive total. Please can we for once get Carlson out cheaply.

Carlson, first ball 😄😁😆😅.
Any chance, we can repeat it in the Championship Match or am I pushing my luck?

What is Bopara doing? Why would you bowl FHP who’s going at 12’s when Karvelas has 2 left?

What is Bopara doing? Why would you bowl FHP who’s going at 12’s when Karvelas has 2 left? The only thing I can think of Joe is he is trying to build his confidence. H-P has struggled with his bowling during the tournament. But you are right, the sensible option would have been Karvelas. Equally, I thought it was a bit of a gamble to bowl out Mills as early as the eighteenth. I appreciate many will say we are nit picking, but Bopara's decisions as captain do invite plenty of questions. |

Consecutive victories, slowly moving up the table. With Gloucestershire and Kent to play, we have an outside chance of a mid-table finish, which would be a good outcome given the number of players who have departed our T20 squad in recent seasons.
There are may areas where we need to develop and improve, but in terms of fielding and holding catches, this young group I believe are one of the better sides in the Competition.
