Tynevalleyblackcat
Having listened to the commentary from the start, I realise conditions are not easy, but it will get a fair bit harder once the run rate creeps over 6.

The ground's pretty doughy and at one end the ball is keeping particularly low. Dynamos 49-5.
4:56pm
christoff
Easier to say than do though howay lads need to win this
poolynorm
Aftas Panther.Fancy batting last man? Don't suppose Colwyn Bay is on your list of grounds visited.
raydetmold
exactly TVBC
Tynevalleyblackcat
The way to take the pressure off here is to score some runs. Its almost as if we are standing around waiting for the next wicket to fall. Don't die wondering and play some shots please.
poolynorm
Its a small ground Ray.I was actually there on a club tour game in the 90's.Not as big as the Font.

great chance for richardson to push his claims for the first team here, modest total that could be achieved with one good partnership, rocky & richardson easing us to this win would cement the idea of them two being the future of our 4 day side
poolynorm
Its an outground Tristy which has had buckets load these last few weeks.
Update
Michael Richardson joins Mark Stoneman (11*).

Tristan
i think pooly should pick the order, unfair of me to waltz in and start barking orders, done a great job so far
marchy22
pooly lead the bowlers well in ur absence what batting order do u fancy
Tristan

marchy22
van ja***dhjsajkf how ever u spell it is a big wicket
Stan Drop
Good afternoon all. I'm sorry I'm late - been watching the Tino best show! Bunny "pick of the bowlers" according to the commentariat. 4 wkts and by a distance the most economical. I reckon that that performance now puts him ahead of Finn. 50/3 gerrin lads!
