[Nando]

Wood requires further surgery on his elbow.

 

[Dinowolf]

Livingstone gone for 0-25 off 3 overs

 

[Carrotdude]

Our bowling is a whole load of nothing

 

[Dinowolf]

SA set for a big score here

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Our bowling is a whole load of nothing

In fairness it's probably not even third string if everyone were available. Not helped by Potts only being able to bowl four overs.

 

[Dinowolf]

SA finish on 333-5

 

[Carrotdude]

These two are really struggling to time anything here

 

[Tony Towner]

SA did towards the end of their innings, most of the boundaries in the last 10 came off the edge from a heave.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Losing patience with Livingstone in this format. Doesn't even try to rotate strike, just either dot balls or boundaries and ends up throwing it away when we need him to be there near the end.

Needs to go. Can't build an innings, as you say he can't rotate the strike. Put a proper batsman in there and you've still got Buttler and Moeen to do the Livingstone role (better than he does)

 

[Dinowolf]

Lost again.
SA win by 62 runs

 

[PuntsWolf]

Demolished again.

Hameed: 60.15
Abell: 55.54
Burns: 49.00
Stoneman: 46.00

Not a good look!

 

[Carrotdude]

Absurd effort from Will Jacks today. Came in at 88-4, Surrey were then 167-8 at one point. He ended on 150* with the last 50 coming from 16 balls and got the team to 319. Next highest score was 29.

 

[Tony Towner]

Warwickshire on their way to throwing away another game. Could be Champs to relegated

 

[Tony Towner]

Olly Stone who is broken again is going to Notts

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Fantastic bowler but I don't think he's ever staying fit.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

29 overs a side, 4.45 start

 

[Trips]

Salt takes Stokes place and bats 3, knocking our best batsman to 4. Willey and Topley come in for Carse and Potts also

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Bloody Willey. Can't wait for the day he gets permanently turfed out of the squad, absolute shit.
