O/T:- 🏏The other Notts [Cricket]

[Magpies1959]

I didn't see us as bottling it. We lost the game in the first five overs. A lot of people see Taunton as a batsmen's paradise, but the par score for T20 games this season was the second lowest in the tournament at around 160, so the score we posted was defendable, but our top three with better application would have seen us make that extra 20 runs, which would have won us the game.

It would certainly help to get a decent start once in a while.
Hales' last six scores are: 0 - 5 - 0 - 4 - 26 - 0

time for him to go !?

Hahahaha…. Given we have geriatrics like Samit and Mullaney robbing a living from cricket still, it’s highly doubtful that we would let Hales go.

Exactly! Throw Moores into the mix too.

Moores is ok as a middle to lower order T20 batsman, but should be nowhere near the gloves. There is no middle ground with his keeping, either brilliant or garbage, more of the latter sadly.

Will Young hits 106* in Championship. Decent singer as well.

He was on song today, hit all the right notes.

And in the right order.

So Notts don't do Bazball. A challenging but not impossible target on a very good batting pitch was never taken on, so we opted for the dull draw.

Disappointed that we didn't even try, the pitch was good enough to have a go and then shut up shop if a couple of early wickets were taken.
