Hants? Pants more like
Welly welly well. Awesome bowling conspired to mean that Durham lost just 5 wickets chasing I forget but it was around the 260 mark. On the 4th day. Lacklustre Hampshire batted pretty poorly, surviving till just pass lunch, when an extra hour would have put the result beyond doubt. Sir Nic got a decent score and Ervine hit a few this time but it was never going to be enough, not when the fat guy Blackwell started warming up for the 40 over match tomorrow. Fair play to them for reaching the target but we were woeful. Think Middlesex. Ok, maybe not quite that bad.

I'm not convinced that McKenzie can hold the Hampshire' middle order together. He struggles against spinners.
ReplyDeleteBenham? I still don't know why Hampshire pick him for CC matches. Hampshire need good middle order batsmen and can't blame on the lower order for this defeat as the team went into the last day with only 5 wickets in hand.
