Bloody Worthing!
Sad to see that the Argus has news of the death of Alon Oakman, country stalwart of the 50s and 60s. I only just caught the end of his career and one of the joys was to see him at 6' 6'batting with Ken Suttle who was about a foot shorter.


Oakman also took part in the Laker (19 wickets) Test Match in 1956.

Fair play to Rushworth, he bowled through 13 overs unchanged, 8 for 51. Hopefully it'll be in a losing cause.

Middx now 6 down, their lead less than 100. Start the car...

I loved a game for a bit of fun they came out to bat wearing each others jumpers and caps. How Oakman gor Suttles jumper on I will never know ! RIP Alan

One of my favourite sights of the noughties was watching Mushy and RMJ batting together, think the height difference was even larger!

At 139/2 Durham must be thinking they're either on parity or just ahead now. Need some wickets quickly.

I can't believe we bowled them out for 103 and have thrown it away, and at the same time I can believe it.
