I wasn't sure whether to quote this one, or quote my comment about Berg getting too aggressive/relaxed.

Bloody hell, still 2.2 overs.

No hand shakes now!

I did think we'd lose the seventh wicket before now though.

Don't get me wrong, it was a good ball. But Berg was going right at it. No thought of defence at all. Job isn't done, even if it feels like it.

He had played a few shots, he always plays a few shots. He ain't a natural prodder.

Don't understand why we would come back for the second run.

Who'd be a Hampshire supporter?

Three escapes in three seasons in three very different ways.

Indeed. You literally couldn't pick three such vastly differing ways. A great escape. An off-field reprieve. And survival when relegation was never a serious worry until the very end.

Enjoy yourself. See you next year. Hopefully we'll have recruited some top order batters by then.

Never in doubt. Now we need to address our awful batting in the off season

Two signings would be nice and Rossouw finding his feet in the longer form of the game.

Adams and Ervine retiring?
