Looking forward to the day where JD bowls a 6 ball over at the death

the annoying thing about him is he obviously has ability

he can get it up to 90mph and gets a bit of seam and swing

problem is he just doesn't seem to have any real plan and he buckles far too easy when the pressure is on

Notts are making this interesting. I think this is Smith's first List A ton, not a bad time to make it.

Fair play to JD he actually bowled with discipline at the death and cut out the fancy dan stuff.

Mark Butcher is fan of his whilst commentating today, giving it large to the anti JD brigade. I think he has been reading this thread :hide

will be a tight game the final, but for me Surrey will edge it

I guess everyone will be wanting Glos to win the final. The underdogs. Shame we won't have a look at Ansari in a big match situation.

It'd be nice to see Geraint say goodbye with a bang.

too close to call, for me. Both finalists have been the oustanding teams of the tournament, so it ought to be a good game............although these things often aren't

Perhaps Durham weren't as hopeless as they appeared in the groups, given that both finalists, and 3 of the 4 semi finalists were from Durham's group

Well be able to have a look at the Currans. And JD.

the Curran's looked promising, when I saw them. T looked better than S. Stoneman hit S for 19 off one over and had to be pulled from the attack until his bro mugged him out.

Derncrap moves very badly, when in the field, although it didn't show during his run up. He actually bowled okay against us

I suppose Tom is twenty to Sam's seventeen.

JD was ahead of his time. He had the econs at international level years ago that everyone has now.

with age comes experience. maybe there's hope for him yet. JD, that is, not T
