Umm, we played Glamorgan away
Next 2 are away, 1 home and then 1 away.

I clearly haven’t been paying attention then! I’m sure when I looked at the Glamorgan match on Cricinfo it showed the venue as the Rose Bowl.
You’re right, we batted second so that’s why I thought we were away, idiot.
Our first game was against Kent at Canterbury
Could have been because I never watched or listened to it as Philippine internet has been down all afternoon and evening.
Defeat out of the way before I attend on Tues
Vince called up to replace Hales for the one day series against Pakistan. Hope he can stay calm and not go chasing outside off stump too often.
Hants 11/1
Alsop departs without troubling the scorers.
Meaker to Alsop, OUT , a loose drive outside off, and a superb low catch at slip! , Burns swooping to his left to cling on in one hand
TP Alsop c Burns b Meaker 0 (16m 7b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00
45/2 Vince gone
Meaker to Vince, OUT , a beauty from Meaker, pinging the top of the bails as Vince plays solidly forward but down the wrong line!
JM Vince b Meaker 28 (19m 19b 5x4 0x6) SR: 147.36
102/3 Sam goes North by Northeast in the 17.4 over
Patel to Northeast, OUT , snaky delivery from Patel, wicket to wicket, and into the timbers as Northeast presses forward, bat and pad together, and inside-edges onto his stumps
SA Northeast b Patel 24 (38m 31b 3x4 0x6) SR: 77.41
End of the 26th over, 124/4
Patel to Rossouw, OUT , a loose waft, and back goes Rossouw’s off stump! Beaten by a canny cutter, but that looked an ugly dismissal, beating the inside edge
RR Rossouw b Patel 14 (17m 19b 2x4 0x6) SR: 73.68
307 a/o, didn’t bat through, 4 balls short of the 50 overs
And it’s now 175/5, with the required run rate standing at over 8.5 per over. Could still do with a couple more wickets I think.
And there’s one of them. It’s 182/6, two new batsmen at the crease, and asking rate of 9 an over with 14 to play.
Two wickets in two balls for Kyle Abbott, and Surrey are 202/8. All over bar the shouting, but let’s see if Kyle can get the hat-trick!
He didn’t. Ah well, it’ll still be a fifth win from six games. Groovy.
Fully expecting So5 to do a streak upon victory, showcasing his bionic knee.
