Afridis average for Hampshire in the T20 this season before tonight was bl**dy 7
Says it all but did he play on to Critchley but play carried on as though nothing had happened?
The big screen at the ground said 3rd umpire review at the start of the next over but only showed it once very quickly

He didn't. Smit gloved the bails.
Smit told the umpires, about the only thing we got right on the night.

exactly
Smit held his hands up - very sporting
Afridi was ridiculous, annoying that he only does that once every few years these days and we were on the end of it
Madsen's drop was massive and we were never going to chase 250!

All this said last night shouldnt take away from what they achieved prior to last night. Qualified well from the group when the likes of Yorkshire and Lancashire failed to. Some very good wins, very close to chasing 200+ at Trent Bridge. For once the signs are positive going forward. Thinking ahead you wonder if one of the overseas slots could be used for a top batsmen but its not an easy decision to make.
One other thing from last night....Liam Dawson is a bit of a dick and how he played test cricket for England i've no idea!

What was Dawson doing to endear himself then?

Not entirely sure he just riled me a bit....think the way he celebrated getting Godleman out when he bowled a half tracker and it was caught at deep midwicket and he ran around celebrating like he'd ripped his middle stump out didnt help.

Afridi played for Derbyshire about 15 years ago and joined the list of waste of space overseas signings at the time

yeah, we did comment that we didn't think he scored 100 runs in total for us

didn't rile me as much as our bowlers still celebrating wickets at 230-6 etc etc

Fair enough it was just confusing at the time when it came up on the big screen as a 3rd umpire review but play was continuing as normal at the time
Everything that could go wrong last night did and it was just an occasion to try and forget
Lets just hope its not another 12 years before we get another chance to get to t20 finals day

Aah the pond. I particularly remember when clairvoyant was bowling. Besides being guaranteed 15 runs off every one if his overs, instead of wearing helmets, his team mates all wore snorkel's!

Erm sounds like someone after a bitter experience which doesn't help as that could be one of many!!! Maybe the terminology gives it away, so a stab in the dark suggests that maybe you could be one of a trio of father and 2 sons dismissed in the same over, somewhere near the deedah border 😊

Trying to sell 5000 tickets on a ground with 3000 seats at £20 plus will always be difficult.
Uncertain weather forecast coupled with 2 home games in the previous week did not help people with a limited income to spend.

The weather was never an issue...it was always going to be dry and fairly warm if not particularly sunny and that was the forecast for the few days leading up to the game. Prices potentially not helped but also suspect holiday season and not a lot of time to get tickets sold werent great helps either.
