GregP Jan 2021 10:41am, 22 Jan 2021 124,804 posts	0 GregP Every time I look at the screen on the right today Bess seems to be bowling the same ball with the same result. I assume I've seen Leach bowl in the flesh but I'm blowed if I can remember. I'll check later (unless Oscar beats me to it).
Nicholls595 Jan 2021 10:45am, 22 Jan 2021 23,490 posts	0 Nicholls595 Leach and Bess have bowled 34 overs between them, with only 3 maidens. You can't build pressure if you can't stop the runs. Most spinners, get most of their wickets through batsman error caused by pressure, not by turning it 4 feet

Nicholls595 Jan 2021 12:16pm, 22 Jan 2021 23,495 posts	0 Nicholls595 I'm a bit puzzled how day one is over, with the spinners bowling 40 overs, yet only 87 overs being bowled?
Cerrertonia Jan 2021 12:44pm, 22 Jan 2021 13,644 posts	0 Cerrertonia Flat, slow surface with nothing for the spinners. Very good toss to win, the only way there's a result here is the sun and wind dry it out enough to provide something for the spinners from day 3. Unusual to see only 2 extras in the day (both leg byes).
