🏏 :hccc: Hampshire Cricket - 2019

Well here we go, County Championship starts today (5th April), seems incredibly early for it but hey ho.

Currently Hampshire are batting v Essex and are 97/2

@saintbletch when you’ve finished with your girls we need a Hampshire Cricket icon.

EDIT:
@BTripz, I’ve no idea what cricket is or even if Hampshire has a team, but I found this when I Google’d.

:hccc:

Is that it?

Cricinfo in a shopping mall here in Krakow. Crazy days

Froze my nuts off for 2 days in a row but saw great batting from most of the team.

5 batting bonus points? Bloody hell it took 5 matches last year to get that many.

Edwards takes his fifth wicket and Essex are 164/9. Keith Baker, in his first game, has taken two quick wickets. The follow-on beckons for Essex, with a day and a half to play.

In fact, that’s 164 all out, as Essex’ wicket-keeper is unable to bat. Essex will therefore follow on 361 runs behind, with around 50 overs to play today and a full day tomorrow.
