Story Caddy's Somerset ICC Story

[Andy Caddick]

Opposition - Essex - CC
Starting Lineup - Graeme Smith (c), Marcus Trescothick, Sanath Jayasuriya, Matthew Wood, James Hildreth, Ian Blackwell, Aaron Laraman, Rob Turner (wk), Richard Johnson, Andy Caddick and Nixon Mclean.

My thoughts - Shocking bowling performance, also a pretty poor batting performance in the 1st innings, probably all my fault as i chose to field on a batting pitch after i saw a bit of cloud on the first day.

Opposition - Leicestershire - NL
Staring Lineup - Graeme Smith (c), Marcus Trescothick, Sanath Jayasuriya, Mike Burns, James Hildreth, Ian Blackwell, Aaron Laraman, Carl Gazzard (wk), Arul Suppiah, Simon Francis and Neil Hancock

My thoughts - Poor bowling at the end of Leicestershire's innings let us down with some 75 runs being conceded in the last 5 overs after some brilliant economical bowling from Ian Blackwell.

Opposition - Surrey - NL
Starting Lineup - Graeme Smith (c), Sanath Jayasuriya, Mike Burns, James Hildreth, Keith Parsons, Ian Blackwell, Aaron Laraman, Carl Gazzard (wk), Arul Suppiah, Simon Francis and Neil Hancock

My thoughts - Batting let us down again with the middle order (Parsons, Blackwell, Laraman and Gazzard) failing to make runs.

Starting lineup - Graeme Smith (c), Matthew Wood, Mike Burns, James Hildreth, Keith Parsons, Ian Blackwell, Wes Durston, Carl Gazzard (wk), Arul Suppiah, Mike Parsons and Neil Hancock

My thoughts - Not a bad performance at all, we would of liked the 2h and 16m called off by rain. We seriously need a win.

 

[treva]

what i would do is take out durston and bring in an extra bowler to strengthen the weak area.
keep it up
