@ViewfromtheBpod My sons keep talking about it to me.
I only just discovered YouTube two years ago. I am a bit of a Luddite technophobe😂!
English
Hopefully in a good way
And have they bought a copy?

@ViewfromtheBpod Lots of Notts folk here talking about your book👍.
English
@ENG2Stars1Day You mean you don’t listen?! We’re on YouTube now if that helps
English
@ViewfromtheBpod I suspect that, like me, I barely know what a podcast is and have never listened to one before. It’s an age thing!!!
English
@ViewfromtheBpod I shall mention it to him whenever I see him again for sure.
English
@ENG2Stars1Day No idea. Maybe you can ask him!
I’d love to get him on the podcast if he was up for it
English
@ViewfromtheBpod It appeared that he didn’t know anything about the book until we menyined it to him. Why did he block you?

In their 156 year history @DerbyshireCCC have only scored over 600 runs in an innings on six occasions...two of them have come in successive innings!
698-6 v Kent at Canterbury September 2025
625-8 v Worcestershire at Derby April 2026

Paul Farbrace predicted big things for him on the podcast

𝟱𝟬 𝗗𝗔𝗡 𝗟𝗔𝗧𝗘𝗚𝗔𝗡 👏 A maiden First Class half-century for the 19 year old. 🌟 Worcestershire 79/0 (21.1 overs)
English
@ENG2Stars1Day Brilliant, I hope they are enjoying it. And you as well
Did Dave say anything about it? I wanted to interview him but he blocked me!
English
@ViewfromtheBpod Yes, they have. We were talking to Dave Bracegirdle about it in the pub after today’s play.

Jason Kerr after D2:
“Intriguing.
I’ve never seen us go past the bat here so
many times without taking the edge
Craig and Miggy particularly were superb with the ball
A lot of credit to Haynes & Clarke who absorbed a lot of pressure”

@ENG2Stars1Day Hopefully that remains the case by Monday evening

@ViewfromtheBpod I really am Sir.

You must be loving life right now

@ViewfromtheBpod To want to get younger is completely fine but forcing someone of his quality to just retire is pretty ridiculous. You don’t have to play him every game but don’t completely shut the door on him
English
If weather plays ball good chance for Notts to try and force a win
You'd hope they wouldn't lose from here with Somerset having to bat again then take another 10 wickets
If we get a lead I hope we hit the accelerator as it won't be easy second time around to bowl them out
English
First one almost certainly isn't out (unlucky, Calvin) but it's just a fast bowling clinic
Can't understand why he can't play a 1-2 Tests a series when he's still this good
Rothesay County Championship@CountyChamp
The 56th time that James Anderson has taken five wickets in a first-class innings
English
Last season Hameed was bowled or LBW 9 times and caught 9 times
Being dismissed nearly 50% of the time (there was a run out) from deliveries hitting the stumps seems a little high for a Test opener
That percentage was also higher in 2024
For Slater it was 8 and 15 last year
ViewfromtheBridge@ViewfromtheBpod
Interesting chat on comms about Slater and England Pros: Consistency and ability to score tough runs (see Surrey last year and carrying his bat against Anderson) Cons: Lack of hundreds and age I do feel his technique might stand up more at Test level than perhaps Hameed's

Maybe he could open with Jimmy Anderson
Clearly the bloke can still bowl despite being pensioned off by England...

Pleased I put Pennington in my fantasy team My complete conviction he will be in an England squad this summer justified by that performance Been banging on about it on the podcast and Substack

Classy half-century from James Rew. Batting looking easier now against a Notts attack that appears to have lost their radar partially. Rob Lord has impressed without taking a wicket.
