šŸ :hccc: Hampshire Cricket - 2019

According to the BBC that puts Hants up to 5th in the table, with 1 game left…

Right, I’m very confused, there’s 9 teams in the league and they play each other home and away, so that makes 16 games for each team…yet each team only has 1 game left…what gives :man_shrugging:

Too many games. They cut it to 14 a few seasons back. For example we did not play Surrey at the Oval (this or last season - Grrr as its a popular match to attend)

Right, Gloucestershire (my county of birht) have beaten Kent, Gloucs are in the quarter finals…

So tomorrow Hants need to beat Glamorgan handsomely and hope that either Middlesex beat Somerset or Essex beat Kent…

Just 216 to chase down tonight then…

Chris Wood earning a new contract off the future father-in-law.

Ye Gods!

Funny watching Middlesex chase down 227 against The Wurzels. Essex to qualify instead of Somerset.

OOOH. Wood got 0.

Good game. Good game.

So we lost tonight v a team without a win in their 13 games. Another finals day without my team for me

I’ll console myself that with Skates and Spurs away that week, I can save my wallet and liver.

Not going so well against Surrey today, guess that’ll be no batting points then…

Does Rikki Clarke ever not top score against us?

Looks a little better today, although the weather may have a big say in the result.

Never judge cricket until both sides have batted.

Going well now, even though Vince (91) and Northeast (73) have fallen recently. 258-5, lead by 245

Play suspended at 296-6 (lead of 283). That will probably be it for tonight, but two full days still to play
