Almost certain. A pretty pathetic start to the season. I can’t be arsed to look it up but I’ve got a vague memory that last season started in the same vain. Might not have been an innings but a poor defeat.
Have I missed the ECB announcement about teams playing on different pitches?
Can't be the same surface that looked so flat when Leicester were batting
You would think so but sadly it’s the quality of the players. That opening partnership is not going to cut it at county level. I won’t talk about heart yet as it’s day 3 of the season - and not a city thread!!

Agree about the openers. I think there's potential in Byron, but would be nice to see a bit of experience alongside him. I don't think ul-hasan is going to cut it with bat or ball. He looks like someone who could average about 15 with the bat and 75 with the ball to me. Hopefully he proves me wrong

Far from it, we scored 600plus for 4 I think it was, at Lords with Northeast getting 300 plus - from memory, Middlesex then got a first innings lead!
This game is getting embarrassing now, but it shouldn’t be too surprising given the lack of Welsh youngsters coming through, the low key recruitment in thewinter and the shambles regarding the coaching situation.

My memory failed me again. Had forgotten that was the opening game. From 300+ last year to 1st baller in 2nd innings this year!
Indeed they have. Credit to them. Well done Carlson.
Definitely good to see a bit of fight at the end. Shows there must be a bit of character. I've got to be honest, I'd forgotten about Gorvin. But if I remember rightly he did quite well end of last year. 4/51 with the ball and closing in on a 50 with the bat. Good individual performance
Did Ben Kellaway get injured bowling the final over? He only bowled 2 deliveries (well 4 if you include no balls) before Sam Northeast finished the over.
