I had a lovely time yesterday. It was a bit cold in the first session and in the final hour but the middle has some warming sun. As for the cricket, well Siddle, like last year when I saw Essex, is just a bit more than the other bowlers. On which note, ten Doeschate only managed 5 balls of his over while Jamie Porter has run up issues a couple of times with one ball taking four attempts.
Patel was very slow to get going for SUrrey but he played some lovely strokes once he got past 40 or so. Rory Burns' stance is, odd, he seems to have body parts all pointing in different angles.
I don't like the Oval, it being all card payments only is weird and it just doesn't feel as nice as other, smaller grounds. Havign said that I'm going to try and get there tomorrow and probably more through the summer as it's only a bus away. I was also annoyed that the Surrey Women play only rarely play at the Oval.
Can we start complaining about the 2020 County season in this thread? Or should I put gripes about the 50 overs competition in the same thread with the hundred?
