Title: Who will be County Champs?
Post by: larwood on Wednesday, September 20, 2006, 07:52:39
The last county games start today,Mex's lot are in pole position,but Lanky could still do it and from a netural point of view i'd love that to happen,Lancashire haven't won the title outright since the 30's :o But they've got a hard game against Hampshire,Sussex are away at Nottinghamshire.

My team Middlesex are down,we have been truely awful in all forms of the game :x But the other relegation place will be decided by the game between Yorkshire V Durham.

All in all it could be an exciting four days.

dave you prick

did the weather make goodwins batting average 62?

or adams batting average 49.82 or how about yardys at 46.76?

as for bowling well we are shit at that too, lets look at the figures shall we

mushy 89 wickets at an average of 21.6
rana  34 at 15.29!!
lewry 55 wickets at 23.25
arafat 41 wickets at 24.85

plus 8 outright wins and possibly a ninth at trent bridge, you can say all you fuckin want about the weather but sussex still have to win, and the beauty of sussex is every singhle one of them chips in time and time again, look at kirtley at the c&g final

a team doesnt win the c&g the county championship and is one point off the pro 40 because of the fucking weather you stupid cunt.

Regardless of the obvious quality and deserved success for Sussex, if Lancashire had been able to play the same number of days as Sussex they would have walked it by now. That's cricket.

Try reading the quote. I was talking about the championship.

By your logic a team winning as regularly as Lancashire would not win in any of the days lost. Not likely is it?

Days lost is not an excuse, it's a reason.

The way Notts have played Mushie has been awful. For 11 out of 12 deliveries Mushie was bowling a googly but every ball the Notts batsmen set themselves up for the leggie.
