You simply cannot have that many wickets in a day unless something is terribly wrong somewhere.
Croft said the wicket wasn't dangerous but did a bit of everything. Why Hogan didn't take up the option of making Glos bat first is beyond me. It was very cloudy at 11am so great bowling conditions.
There needs to be some straight talking at the club because what is going on is so poor and amateurish.
Regular run outs in the four day stuff is ridiculous, far too many no balls and extras in general, playing spinners as specialist batsmen when they are simply not up to it, batting collapses in most games, an inability to bowl out tail-enders.

You have to wonder what the hell is going on during coaching sessions because they do not seem to be learning anything.
