@NorthantsCCC Essex calling. Absolutely pathetic from the umpires.

@Billyno52069763 @EssexCricket We can't follow on since we batted first

@EssexCricket Can't wait to see how you spin your lunch report!

@The_Grumbler As if we didn't need any more proof that the ECB isn't fit for purpose

So now you haven't even selected Sam Cook for England. You're playing fast and loose with the integrity of the County Championship. Do you have anything at all to say about this issue?

Rob Key and ECB. Why did you withdraw Sam Cook from Essex's match with Sussex after two days? He is not contracted to England, he's Essex's player and losing him probably cost us the game. Relegation is now a possibility. So thanks a lot.

@The_Grumbler So Leicestershire could get a win over Hampshire but I'm not convinced we're going to beat Yorkshire, Warwickshire or Glamorgan. Squeaky bum time!

@Oliver___Brett @archied009 @IainDale Well Google AI says: It can loosely describe positions like third man or fine leg, which sit roughly 45 degrees to the left or right behind the batter.
And, as I mentioned, I've heard TMS refer to 3rd Man as the 45.

[Gary Pope @GPWHU99]

@Oliver___Brett @archied009 @IainDale 45 is often used by commentators for Third Man. Perhaps they're wrong.

[Gary Pope @GPWHU99]

@thomas_markw @IainDale It's a cricket thing, not a BBC thing.

[Gary Pope @GPWHU99]

@archied009 @IainDale It's Night Watcher and 45 - as in 45° behind the batter. Assume you aren't a cricket enthusiast.

[Gary Pope @GPWHU99]

@IainDale You don't really follow cricket do you? Batter has been used by cricket for a few years now. It really isn't a BBC thing.

[Gary Pope @GPWHU99]

@EssexCricket Relegation incoming...

[Gary Pope @GPWHU99]

@TUnlimitedd We've been looking at our own miserable team for the last eight months. Doesn't stop us enjoying Bangladesh though.

@DurhamCricket Would anybody from Durham CC care to comment on the appalling quality of the live feed and lack of commentary?
