Bears/Pears/Domestic Cricket Thread

Atherton asking Dinesh what sort of qualities you need to be a Captain at cricket. He referenced Harry Brook with no self awareness whatsoever.

I know it's easy but it made me smile.

Phoenix falling apart

Bears looking like the best white ball team in the country at present, let's hope they convert into a trophy or two.

... there's an 18 year old leggie coming through called Tazeem Ali who is supposed to be a bit special.

The other bgood thing yesterday was the performance from this lad. He really does look a bit special.

Sounds like Barnard is coming on as expected when he moved…becoming a batsman who bowls rather than the other way round.  Very handy player who might yet make a mark internationally

I agree, on current form I think he'd be a good option to fill the role Stokes has played for a long time (in white ball cricket).

We've looked good for a few seasons now, only to save an absolute stinker for the knockout stages.

I enjoyed watching Taz Ali, too.

Like Shoaib Bashir, he doesn't seem put out when the batsmen try to get after him.

Long delay to the start of the Bears game means it's limited to 21overs.

Glamorgan currently 22/2 after 4. Both openers gone.

Another break reduced it to 18 overs per side (I thought twenty was the minimum?)

Glam made 143 for 5, Bears chasing a revised target of 155.

No result, Bears didn't bat.

This is what a friend said nearly 10 years ago when we were watching Barnard at New Road.

and now abandoned without Bears facign a ball, what a shame, this was the big game of the group.

[cdbearsfan]

Still unbeaten!
