[Trigger]

Up to the start of the Gloucester match... Apparently...

 

[Seagull over NZ]

Was at the game yesterday at Bristol. Some good bowling by the boys but very let down by the batting. 3 people bowled from poor shots, 2 caught behind from really bad shots, altogether poor.

Only saving grace is its wet here today and forecast to continue raining.

[Pevenseagull]

Took in a fair bit of the 2nd XI game this afternoon.

Around tea we needed about 120 runs at approximately a run a ball with only one wicket gone.

A little later we needed about 60 at 5ish an over with 3 wickets gone.

We won with a four from Voros with no wickets left on the 3rd ball of the last over.

Top entertainment.
