I liked that post not because I want to see Sussex get pasted but because I love 50 over cricket too!

Shame to see all three leave. It's becoming concerning to see how many young bowlers choose to leave Somerset. Have to wonder if there is something wrong somewhere. :S

Will be interested to read your thoughts in due course Dan.

Indeed! It was someone trying to justify still being over on X. 😖

People keep telling me there are no cricket people on Blue Sky but that's plain wrong judging by this afternoon! Great innings by Root and Brook.

Nice review as always.

I was at the 'Classic Match' at Trent Bridge in 2016. It was in the middle of a heat wave and Marcus did so well to just keep going, it was exhausting just sat in the stands watching him.

I failed for the second time in a week, last week it was gofer!

I got it in four which does not make up for failing to complete it yesterday when I tried every option apart from the right one!

I just don't understand how the dreadful situation in Gaza is just being allowed to happen. Well done to the LDs for speaking out, our current government is just looking the other way.

I'm always looking for a nice weekend film so thank you for giving me the idea!

So do I.

Just found on the Channel 4 site that they will have it from Sat 26 July.

Cracking work from Craig and the other bowlers. Let's hope we can get to stumps without too many wickets down!

Only two of the purple group made sense to me. I think that Connections is sometimes impossible for people who don't speak American!

Just had a short sharp shower here in the Blackdown Hills so that may be on the way to you but if that is all you get it should be fine for later!

But I thought he was the most healthy man ever to be president.

I guess I could sign up to read the odd article but I think last time I got fed up with all their emails. Since Bezos got his grubby little hands on it the quality and independence have gone. It's not Woodward and Bernstein level now!

Thanks for trying to share though. :)

I get this. Options to sign up but no access to the article, the 'Start reading' is greyed out as you can see.

I can't read it (no WP account) but even the headline indicates that the writer is not existing in the real world. High as a kite or under instructions from someone high up in the organisation to carry on the boot licking. :S

That really qualifies as one of the most wackadoodle wickets ever. Great stuff.

It is splendid. I miss nothing from X other than the cricket chat.

I had that last week.

The package did not arrive the next working day.

Also on the first day when they claimed they could not deliver the package there were four people in the building who could have accepted the parcal.

It's getting harder and harder to remember where all the Somerset players are.

Nice opportunity for Josh though.

Yes absolutely!

It's a shame our national anthem is such a dirge.

Sweet Caroline seems to rock up at virtually every sporting event, cricket, rugby, football, aussie rules football, and I'm sure there are many more.

I only got there on go 6. That was a tricky one!

I know of people still on X who are only there because the cricket content and users they want to read is on X. If it was all here they would be delighted to move away from X.

But how that happens I am not sure but I appreciate that you are engaging with us here on this topic.

Lovely news, always inspires me to get my sewing machine out of the cupboard. 😍

He has been absolutely terrific.

I hope we see him back again later in the season.

I accept what you are saying about engagement levels (although I tend to think if you build it, they will come).

But what is a more suitable platform for those of us that will not go to X for all the reasons given already in this thread?

Ah mystery ground time. It's very nice wherever it is.
