poolynorm
Do they still have that hot tub at the back of the old scorehut? Bryn
poolynorm
Too late .Never mind I've enjoyed the crack.Best wishes for the Middlesex 4 dayer.
bryn
looking forward to a few mb's on weds v the middle sex ers,could well be giving my new pink swimmers an airing ;)
Mark
Great effort but some strange decisions near the end.
poolynorm
Are we ahead on the Jack Duckworth? If so pray for rain
Tynevalleyblackcat
Good effort lads. I am only really interested in the 4 day stuff anyway, but there is spirit in this side and I don't mind losing a game like that.
poolynorm
Shows there's plenty spirit in the side.Thats without the mb's.
john little
hard luck lads fought very well
Tynevalleyblackcat
Wicket. Maiden over and we draw!!!! :)
poolynorm
Get the taxi fare brym.
poolynorm
Must be injured otherwise surely he would have come back.
Tynevalleyblackcat
Unlucky lads. Decent effort though.
raydetmold
where the ***s Onions ?
poolynorm
Death or glory for Woody.
marchy22
game over
poolynorm
13 off 12balls.
Update
Costly over which has seen a 6 and 4 has Hampshire needing 13 off 12.
7:23pm
bryn
hew.....
poolynorm
20 off 14.
john little
lancs about to beat surrey
raydetmold
start the car
poolynorm
22 off 15 balls.
poolynorm
28 off 3 Marchy.
Tynevalleyblackcat
They need 27 or 17 balls.
marchy22
whats the equation now
raydetmold
so 3 overs left and Onions still could bowl 3 ?
john little
need big over from rushy
poolynorm
Surprised Woody has come back instead of Bunny.
Tynevalleyblackcat
Haway Rushy lad, lets have another tight over.
Tynevalleyblackcat
Could do with a wicket here just to slow them down a touch.
poolynorm
Bit of a mixed bag there Brando.Its going canny.
poolynorm
Not played for nearly 2 weeks.Graduated to skip.Will miss a fewcga Quite canny Brando.Graduated to Skip.Will miss a few games due to hols and work.I bowl similar to Trevor Chappell.
Tense finish
Good over from Rushworth, wicket and just the 1 run off it. 39 from 24 now the equation.
7:13pm
raydetmold
could go down to the last ball
Tynevalleyblackcat
Run Rate now 9.6
brandonia
How's the bowls going Norm? Do you bowl right arm over?
john little
we just might nick this
Tynevalleyblackcat
Fantastic over Rushy.
Tynevalleyblackcat
Brilliant.
poolynorm
Cracking stuff Rushy.
Tynevalleyblackcat
This is exactly the over we needed so far.
john little
Tell you what these lads never know when theyre beaten
poolynorm
Vital wicket, very capable of a cameo innings
Frankjw
Ervine gone
Frankjw
8
Tynevalleyblackcat
Get in. 4 down.
poolynorm
22 off last 2 overs.Just shows the fine line between keeping your bowlers on or making a change.
marchy22
whats the run rate required
Frankjw
Wickets a must have
raydetmold
what is the sense in bringing Onions back when the games nearly beyond us ? he should be on now
poolynorm
Not sure if Stanley has a spar.Definitely got a Nisa store.
poolynorm
Good finish to the over.
john little
need carberry thats critical
poolynorm
Risky bringing Will iam back.Must suit the slower bowlers?
Frankjw
8 in 2 balls!
Mark
Yes, really bad news about Benks. Here's hoping the great man makes a full and speedy recovery. Great opportunity though for a youngster . The good thing is Smith and Rocky have found their form so hopefully whoever comes in will be under a bit less pressure.
john little
Yea pooly burnmoor mainly and gateshead fell
raydetmold
pressure on Hants now
poolynorm
9 a over equates to a boundary plus 5 singles.Very gettable.
Tynevalleyblackcat
9.3 now
Frankjw
We need wickets
Tynevalleyblackcat
Run rate now 9. Keep it tight and this could be our game.
bryn
is that local spa place still up stanley? asking for a friend obvs...
poolynorm
Tidy spell from Pringle 0-40 from 8 overs.
Tynevalleyblackcat
Terrible news about Benks. Just as we are starting to look really good in the championship we get hit with an injury to a key player. Hope the op goes well and he make s full recovery and is back ASAP. Not quite sure how you ever really replace a guaranteed first team starter.
marchy22
so would jennings open and everyone move down one
poolynorm
Did you play cricket in your younger days John?
brandonia
Jennings probably. Mind Richardson deserves a chance too.
Tynevalleyblackcat
Over 8 an over is never easy. It can easily get to 9 or 10 with a few tight overs. 8.2 now.
marchy22
who do we all think will come in to replace benks against middlesex
john little
chester le street but worked round derwentside a lot
poolynorm
Are you a Stanley lad like John?
raydetmold
required
raydetmold
run rate over 8 now
marchy22
we always like to make things interesting
john little
first time sun over stanley in at least 7 yrs mate
Tynevalleyblackcat
Sorry I meant Mark!! March has no doubt already conceded the points to Hampshire!!! (Just kidding mate:))
john little
excellent tight bowling from the youngsters
Tynevalleyblackcat
Could go either way. As Marchy says, a few tight overs and the run rate may get too much for them.
poolynorm
Big John has the sun gone in down Stanley?
Mark
There's a chance if we get another couple of quick wickets or tight overs
john little
77 off 10 hmmmmmmm
raydetmold
spot on Norm , apply the pressure now get Onions back on
Borthwick gets his 2nd.
Borthwick gets his second and Bailey goes for 13. Hampshire 162-3 in the 26th over need 79 off 64.
6:49pm
poolynorm
Run rate creeping up.Need to see the back of these two sharpish.I would bring back Onions for 2 overs.
john little
bit of panic to set in Watch this space
Tynevalleyblackcat
3 down. Important wicket. The only way we win from here is if we keep taking wickets to slow them down.
raydetmold
3 down here comes the collapse
marchy22
too simple
john little
86 0ff 12 isnt so simple
bryn
we need a hero...
brandonia
Carberry will win this on his own.
poolynorm
Stay tuned bryn I'm expecting Durham to stand and deliver.
bryn
sounds fine and dandy that pools,gutted i missed it!
poolynorm
Should have been at the Test match bryn.It was swinging and seaming all morning.
stuartp
Yep another 2-3 to give us a chance really, and fairly soon as well or it will be too late.
stuartp
Yep another 2-3 to give us a chance really, and fairly soon as well or it will be too late.
poolynorm
Bring back Rushy .
bryn
aftas all,just recovered from my 'eurovision party' whats the beef?
marchy22
we need more than one wicket
raydetmold
Adams gone , needed that wicket
stuartp
We needed that.
stuartp
I think it would have been different again had we bowled 1st when there was a bit of juice in the wicket.
marchy22
hampshire are a quality one day side, no shame in losing to them, its the format of this cricket that is a joke
raydetmold
2 consecutive 6s in this over
brandonia
We never win at the Rose Bowl :-(
poolynorm
Time to bring on young George ,Rocky
Mark
We need a couple of very quick wickets to slow them down. Surrey having a wobble against Lancs.
stuartp
Not looking good.
Mark
Yes
brandonia
Colly struggling like. Is Stokes still unfit to bowl?
marchy22
haway we need wickets
poolynorm
60/1 off 11.Threatening partnership.
Frankjw
Wickets please

5:43pm
stuartp
Good over from Rushworth.
poolynorm
36-1 off 7overs.
brandonia
He deserves all the yellows he gets. Chimp git.
chrissafc

brandonia
Mega lolz at Bale getting booked for diving earlier when he was fouled.
poolynorm
Cheers Brando.It was the West Indian Jimmy Adams now coach at Kent.
brandonia
James Kenneth Henry Adams.
poolynorm
New batter is Jimmy Adams.Wasn't he pro at Eppleton in DSL.
marchy22
great start, we must win this game, surrey gonna beat lancs
Mark
Smith!!
poolynorm
Smudge is on fire,.0-1 off 2 balls.Vince st Colonel.
poolynorm
See the ex Easington cricketer Steve Harper is playing his last match at Newcastle today.Thats some cold ground for a night game.Canny trek from the car park as well.
poolynorm
Didn't expect Smudge to let rip.Mind you I predicted a sixer for Young George last championship match.
marchy22
and exactly the sixty runs i wanted from the last six overs, no more no less ;-)
Mark
Great recovery from Stokes, Smith and Pringle after an awful start.
brandonia
I don't dislike it as such, I just prefer the longer format.
chrissafc
decent
Frankjw
Final total 241
poolynorm
Partnership between Smudge and the classy crisps was 74 off 46.
Frankjw

poolynorm

Frankjw

Frankjw

brandonia
Ha'way Stokesy lad, milk that Brigadoon. He's well overrated!

Frankjw

poolynorm
Another 2 to go Frank.
Frankjw
84/4 halfway through the overs.
poolynorm
80-4 off 17 overs.Ben 23 Gord 7.
auldtimer
I hope he's fit enough after the op to be able to spend some time with the lads during games, just to have him there will help the younger lads.
Frankjw
Your right aultimer, he would be upping the run rate by now
poolynorm
I know silence is golden but haway .
auldtimer
Benks will be a massive miss both on the field and in the dressing room, his experience is irreplaceable.
poolynorm
Never fear Gord's here.Always keeps his best for Sunday.
marchy22
this is disappointing
marchy22
yes and he is improving and is still young for a cricketer and durham obviously see him as a future captain hence why he has been given the duty of the one day team
brandonia
We're on 5Live Sports Extra again on Wednesday guys.
Frankjw
Colly gone
stuartp
He is, and I hope he is improving his concentration, but he has a history of getting out for 20-30.
marchy22
he is having a good season
poolynorm
Coincidence or just bad timing that young Rocky departs when Marchy comes to the party.
stuartp
Sadly I have seen Rocky get out after getting in too many times marchy.
Frankjw
Ben owes us a good innings
poolynorm
Big Ben comes to the crease.Time for some controlled batting.
marchy22
oh no
poolynorm
Kiss of death Stu.
stuartp
B***er rocky gone for 32.
poolynorm
Colly completes 10,000 List A runs.Well done.
Frankjw
36/2 off 7
stuartp
Rocky going well,just hope he doesn't give it away on 30.
poolynorm
Is everyone watching the footy or having a late lunch?
poolynorm
26-2 off 5 overs.2 ex TSL players at the crease.Collingwood the new batsman
Frankjw
Self Service again
poolynorm
Thought for a minute I was talking to myself!!
raydetmold

Frankjw
Scotty Gone 23/2
poolynorm
LB to hey macarena.Looks likely that Rokes will be watching the footy in the Empire.
raydetmold
Mustard out for 1
poolynorm
Thought Capt Brando and his sidekick Marchy would've been here by now.
poolynorm
Colonel and Rocky open up.
raydetmold
good start Rocky
chrissafc
superb stuff from england
poolynorm
Hurry up John its just passing the old fire station!
stuartp
Best figures for Broad 7-44.
Noz
NZ 68 all out. Eng win by 170. Farcical last wicket run out
john little
ive seen it must be the end of the world approaching
poolynorm
Es ist vorbei Raymondo
poolynorm
The Kiwi batsman who was on X Factor a couple of years back is having a quick slog but should be here shortly.
stuartp
Well poolynorm I did try Facebook and decided it was a waste of time, but my mobile phone with a 3G connection is invaluable for keeping up with the cricket scores when I am away from home.
poolynorm
I can go further than that Stu, I think Facebook is the root of all evil and I don't care much about mobile phones.
raydetmold
ya a bit like Roker then ?
stuartp
You and me both poolynorm, we may be the only 2 in the northeast.
poolynorm
Raymondo, no I don't frequent the Garden House.In fact I'm teetotal, non smoker and don't gamble.You could say I'm an oddball!! Bit of a rarity in the Stanley area.Sun's now moved near to Asda just so Big John gets a glimpse of it.
Mark
@hantscricket: Dynamos: Stoneman*, Mustard+, Collingwood, Borthwick, Stokes, Pringle, Smith, Wood, Rushworth, Onions, Muchall
raydetmold
200 plus hopefully
Mark
Hampshire team @hantscricket: So, full Royals Team is: Carberry, Vince, Adams*, Bailey, Ervine, Dawson, Wheater+, Mascarenhas, Wood, Briggs, Griffiths
Mark
Hampshire won the toss and are bowling
raydetmold
Norm , do you ever use the Garden house workmens club ?
john little
Sun In Stanley???? Dont be ridiculous
poolynorm
Afters Raymondo, the sun's threatening to come out in Stanley.Stotted down yesterday.
poolynorm
Lack of discipline since the start of this innings Mark.Chasing 239 in over 5 sessions to win and the big lad Fulton starts the rot.Fair enough its swinging and seaming like bryn on a night out but the old fashioned merits of playing straight etc still holds true.I blame 20/20!
stuartp
Yeah I mean look at it he's going for nearly 4 an over.
raydetmold
Chris he is not silencing anybody as long as he keeps bowling that short wide rubbish he will always be critisised and rightly so , when he gets it right like today , hes un playable
Mark
And he was too expensive lol
stuartp
Nah they will just say he was bowling at minows, and anyway he should have pitched it up more all along.
chrissafc
Broad silencing a few critics today
Mark
Not much digging in at Lords pooly
poolynorm
Apparently the Kiwis want to join LMC as soon as possible.They won't be long so would everyone please curtail comments until they arrive.
Mark
2.30 start provided there's no more rain. 36 overs per side.
Mark
Thanks
raydetmold
Match scheduled to begin at 13:45 local time (12:45 GMT) Match start delayed (Start delayed due to rain) Current time: 13:48 local, 12:48 GMT
Mark
At least I don't think it has ray, trying to look at Hampshire twitter feed but keep losing connection! Last update I read was that the covers were on
raydetmold
Cheers Mark
Mark
The toss hasn't happened yet
raydetmold
any news whos won the toss batting etc ?
Mark
Looks as if there will be a delayed start, covers are on.
Mark
Yes, awful news about Benks. Here's hoping he makes a speedy recovery. Agree with you morzee, great opportunity for someone to step up.
morzee
afternoon. shame to read about benks yesterday. gives an opportunity to one of the younger lads to cement a place in the side. I hope someone grasps this chance.
raydetmold
Good Afternoon everybody , Broads a completely different bowler when he keeps it up
keenasmustard
Unbelievable morning at Lords.
stuartp
New Zealand now 6 down for 29.
stuartp
Interesting results in the CC this week. Somerset, Surrey and Derby all looking in trouble already this season.
stuartp
Morning all, listening to the test at the moment.
Frankjw
Afternoon all, any weather or team news?
keenasmustard
Morning all. Hope Benks shoulder injury isn't too bad. Good luck to Rocky though today skippering the side in benks absence.
