lapal_fan Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 and Evans. We do have to sort our death bowling out. Its been dire the last few games. Can't allow teams to get that many at the end and expect to win too many. Haha, sorry, I meant Evans. Even last night I was getting them mixed up for some reason. Evans was a good sport on the boundary, there was a group of Asian lads who were giving him friendly banter, but wouldn't stop. He took it in good nature though.

PaulC Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Easily done and Lewis did take a wonder catch. Evans is a very confident person and too good looking 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 McCullum fails again. I good innings in 7 against the worst team. No thanks to having him back, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 So Essex in the quarters again. Be glad to have Porterfield back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veloman Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 PaulC - do you know why Boyd Rankin isn't getting a game ? Hmm - agreed re. McCullum, pity really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 injured i think, as is Wright. We're struggling today. This is such a weak batting line-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milfner Posted July 25, 2015 Author Share Posted July 25, 2015 Slaughtered. Hales ton off 60 balls. Desperately need to sign an opener and another top order batsman in the off-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 I think its better to look long-term and back the young players from the academy. Webb won't make it. We'll probably have a top order next season including Chopra, Bell, Trott and Hain, then theres Andy Umeed and England u19 star Thomason who have just signed 4 year contracts. d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Westwood isn't getting any younger, Chopra is horribly out of form and Porterfield is too inconsistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avfc96 Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Also, what about Lewis? He's 24 and only has 8 T20 games to his name with a poor average of 14 and a highest score of 27. Another one that might be let go at the end of the season along with Webb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Yes Lewis wont make it. Him and Webb I remember seeing play for the seconds 6 years ago, Westwood is younger than Bell so should have a few more years in him. Chopra has just had a poor season, maybe change the captain next season and his form could return. Umeed is an opener who has great promise.

parisvilla Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 We're one of the frontrunners to sign David Willey apparently source? Pretty widely mooted that Northants will let him leave this winter to a div one side who will enable him to enhance international prospects. I think the article that mentioned us a keen suitor was on cricinfo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veloman Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I reckon David Willey would be a tremendous acquisition, as would have been James Taylor, who Warks were also linked with !!! On a different note, it seems that members don't get in to the T20 quarter finals on their membership; is this new 'cos we were away last year and I can't remember the year before that.

PaulC Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 (edited) Man, I'd love Ryan Ten Deschante. I know he'd never come, but he'd be awesome. Yes big fan myself. One of my fav batsman. He's an Essex man though in that he's played for that county for so many years. Edited July 27, 2015 by PaulC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
