@finn_clapton @daisycutterzine What's wrong with dawson?

[CountyCricketBadger @badger_CC21]

@19NickPowell @ArnieTTR 17 of his 29 wickets this year have been batsman in the top 7.

[CountyCricketBadger @badger_CC21]

@hawkhampshire Any more contract extensions outside of weatherly and prest? A fair few out of contract. Fuller, Organ, Kelly, wheal off the top of my head. Can see all of them leaving

[CountyCricketBadger @badger_CC21]

@19NickPowell @ArnieTTR 25 wickets @ 26 suggests he's more than good enough

[CountyCricketBadger @badger_CC21]

@FPLWILSON @ArnieTTR @hawkhampshire The Criticism for Brown is a bit unfair. Been a very reliable batsman for us for a number of years. Not convinced of his captaincy but also not his fault the team cant bat

[CountyCricketBadger @badger_CC21]

@batten_nei40370 @hantscricket Worth noting baker has more 5 wicket hauls than abbott this year. Been fantastic when he has played.

[CountyCricketBadger @badger_CC21]

@twominutesto @hawkhampshire Orr and baker in for albert/mayes + Yusuf

[CountyCricketBadger @badger_CC21]

@T0m906 @hawkhampshire @FPLWILSON Would have gone with Orr myself. However to be fair to Middleton, hes also tonned up for the 2's and think he got a 70 odd as well

[CountyCricketBadger @badger_CC21]

@hawkhampshire The makings of a good side are there. Think Orr needs to come in for mayes, his time will undoubtedly come, and fuller in for Jack. Overall some very positive signs from Lehman, gubbins and Baker. A big knock feels around the corner for Prest too.

[CountyCricketBadger @badger_CC21]

@hawkhampshire The way both openers have gone for the 2's (particularly orr), this feels like last chance saloon for weatherly

[CountyCricketBadger @badger_CC21]

@ArnieTTR @hantsfanpodcast Unfortunately no easy fix for that this year. Just going to have to hope that a couple of the younger guys do consistently well which is tough to do. I seem to recall vince and dawson both took a few seasons before becoming consistent in Div 1.

[CountyCricketBadger @badger_CC21]

Is there a better uncapped player in the country? Remarkable consistency for such a young man

12 First Class hundreds at 22 years-old 👏

[CountyCricketBadger @badger_CC21]

@T0m906 @hawkhampshire Yeah agree he had a stinking season last year. But think people forget that 2024 he had a very good year. Certainly a class above others in red ball like middleton, albert and weatherly

[CountyCricketBadger @badger_CC21]

@hill1751226 @hantscricket Bit harsh, the bloke averaged 42 last year whilst everyone else struggled around him

[CountyCricketBadger @badger_CC21]

@T0m906 @hawkhampshire Brown looks absolutley shot. Still have high hopes for prest, there is an excellent player in there, just a bit short on confidence. As highly as I rate mayes, a huge ask for him to learn his game in div 1

[CountyCricketBadger @badger_CC21]

@hantscricket Ben mayes 100 tomorrow 👀

[CountyCricketBadger @badger_CC21]

@hantscricket Actually think hants bowled pretty well on what looks like a decent pitch to bat on. Big test for a batting line up short of confidence against one of the best attacks in the division though.

[CountyCricketBadger @badger_CC21]

@hawkhampshire Genuinely could be a generational player for both club and country. I've not seen a 17 year old take to professional cricket quite like he has. Seriously impressive

[CountyCricketBadger @badger_CC21]

@hantsfanpodcast Sounds as if we will be backing a few of the younger guys this season to really make the shirt their own. Feels a very big year for prest, middleton and albert .
Also got the impression that no one is really sure what our best team is. Think we could see a fair bit rotation.
