FP - Fairly Predictable?

Apologies to those looking for a report on yesterday's defeat to Glamorgan last night, but an innovative teaching method being used by local schools meant that my son was in an Advanced Higher Maths chat room moderated by his teacher last night. They were all busy working on questions for today's examination and it seemed to be more important than the blog...

Anyway, I'll make up for it with a good-sized post tonight, which will look at the game and the campaign as a whole. As the heading to this article suggests, however, with all to play for prior to the match the outcome was somewhat predictable. We didn't score anywhere near enough runs to win our game having been well placed, while Essex won fairly comfortably at Old Trafford which made our result academic.

On the up side, Kolkata remembered having a bloke called Langeveldt in their squad and gave him a run out in their game yesterday. He took 3-14 in four overs which simply highlighted their stupidity in not playing him earlier. I can only assume selection pandered to the whim of Indian broadcasters and the team sponsors, as I cannot think of a better bowler in such matches than the burly South African.

Anyway, he'll soon be here and I'll be back later on. Until then, have a good day!
