Ceratonia Mar 2017 5:16pm, 30 Mar 2017 5,206 posts	0 Ceratonia Very pleasant couple of hours, warm sunshine and a surprisingly strong Notts line-up. For these fixtures, you never know whether it will be the county 2nd XI or a line up with half a dozen test players. Also managed to get a reasonable amount of work done between overs without the interruptions of colleagues and the distraction of teh interweb.
Ceratonia Mar 2017 5:25pm, 30 Mar 2017 5,207 posts	0 Ceratonia Making his first class debut (I think) was one Akil Greenidge son of former W.I test player Alvin Greenidge. Like nearly all of the Cambridge MCCU team, he's a student at Anglia Ruskin rather than Cambridge University. I hope Jimmy Anderson is playing for Lancs, who are here on Sunday.

Nicholls595 Mar 2017 8:20pm, 30 Mar 2017 11,408 posts	0 Nicholls595 Samit bats at least as well as Moeen and is a more effective bowler. Shame his face doesn't fit (to be fair, it is usually buried in a kebab)
Nicholls595 Mar 2017 8:22pm, 30 Mar 2017 11,409 posts	0 Nicholls595 I also think he is seen as one of KP's boys. Still, England's loss is Notts gain
Badger Mar 2017 9:18pm, 30 Mar 2017 8,266 posts	0 Badger Think the last time I was at Fenners was the time I was treated to Cook, Panesar and Tymal Mills. He wasn't that accurate that day, but quick? The keeper was practically standing on the pavilion steps. I was really pleased to see him popping up in the T20 side.
