Best over of the tournament so far by Krishna there. I didn’t see it, but must have been the business as Umran Malik got a triple wicket maiden in the final over against Punjab. Haha Maybe should have said 'my favourite over' of the tournament Basically told the RR hierarchy to chill out when they were trying to give him advice. First wicket maiden in the 19th over defending since Malinga 7 years ago, I think they said.

Got you 👍 Wasn’t meaning to sound like a dick, it was just that I’d seen Malik (and that guy has some serious wheels) but not seen today’s game yet.

Good win for the Bears v Essex.
I have a feeling for Lancashire for the county championship this year though. They'll be smarting after losing out in such painful style on the last day last season and have made a very good start so far.
They have a strong first XI overall and Bohannon and Parkinson are both excellent players, which might be England's gain and Lancs' loss as the season progresses.

I’m beginning to wonder if Jasprit Bumrah is going to get punted from my team come the next week of our fantasy league.
He’s an awesome bowler, but his figures are pants so far.
I’m losing patience with him.
Same goes for my other Mumbai player… Ishan Kisha. You’re in the last chance saloon pal.

Brought Rahul back which has been a result and then some. I’m wondering about Livingstone and whether or not to switch him out.

Good move that I’ve got Holder I just think he bats to deep to be any real use. I think i’ll be binning him next round of games.

I can’t believe that Kishan has just got out like that. That was the epitome of a filthy, long hop which he chopped on to De Kock’s boot and Holder caught it at slip. Kishan looked like his feet were in concrete. Has to be seen to be believed.

My IPL team did better this week but plenty of room for improvement. Hopefully be able to make the changes I want before the next game week starts.
My CC team though is going gangbusters. Another stonking week. Just one problem player who’s now gone. Hopefully his replacement will be continuing how good early season form.

Went to Lancashire v Gloucestershire earlier, absolutely cracking days play and a great rear guard action that almost saw Gloucestershire come away with a draw. Mahmood, Anderson, Hasan Ali and Parkinson bowling as a foursome were excellent and to be honest would grace a lot of test match attacks.
The County Championship is enjoying a renaissance and it's great to see, let's hope the good weather sticks around the crowd was really healthy as well so long may it continue......

Had some surplus budget so I bought Maxwell in time for today’s game. Golden duck. 100% predictable. 😂

I guess the data must support it, but he never seems to me to make big scores. He’s either out early or makes a quick fire 30 or 40. Maybe he makes a lot of quick fire 30s and 40s.

good appointment? I’ve heard of him as an opener but have no knowledge of him as a coach.

He's been doing a lot of coaching for T20 franchises since then though so be interesting to see him back in the test arena........

Sounds a good day out mate. I'm gutted, had to miss the Friday's play I was going to as tested positive for the old C19 on the Thursday. Watched it all via the live stream at home though. Lancs have got a great attack this season, which should propel them towards the title. It'll be interesting to see who they go with against Hants tomorrow because some of the seamers got through a lot of work just a few days ago... Big game this one! Hoping to get to one of the home games against Warks or Essex next month. Might even try and sneak in a day or two at Headingley for the Roses. Already got tickets for the T20

I actually thought this whilst at Old Trafford on Sunday. His economy rate was staggering but out of Anderson, Mahmood, Hasan Ali and Parkinson he was the least threatening in terms of taking wickets.......

I think this seasons County Championship will be a massive positive for the future of the Pakistan test team if not the England one, their players are currently having a whale of a time. It's great to see to be fair as a strong Pakistan team is always a good thing in the test arena........

Not sure how I’ve managed to make such a good start in the Championship. I picked this fella, Keith Barker, who I don’t know from Adam and he’s been a star. But it’s all fluke. My good run won’t continue.

You need to be really on the ball for the county championship one. I’ve got transfers lined up for the next round but then I’m not sure when players are away on international duty. A lot more thought has to go into it. Well done so far anyway it’s gonna be a long slog!
