SURREY HAVE NAMED A TWELVE MAN SQUAD FOR THE NATWEST T20 BLAST GAME AGAINST HAMPSHIRE AT THE AGEAS BOWL ON FRIDAY.

sadly there are no burgers on the menu again
There is a recall for Vikram Solanki to add some experience to the squad

the viscount to miss out for me
over to you chaps

Neat post, JimBob. Liked the ''no burgers on the menu'' line. The Corporal won't be chuffed though.

Barring any last minute injury, agree with you about the Viscount missing out. Solanki to come in for Wilson the batsman with Foakes taking the gloves.

Thanks Jimbob.  Agree with you and Guildford about likely starting line up.  One possible explanation for the absence of the burger van is that there is a 2nd XI match tomorrow and Surrey may have decided that it would be better for him to get a game rather than remain parked at the Oval.

'' ... remain parked at the Oval'' - excellent work, Corporal.

I understand Ireland's games are next week and so Wilson will almost certainly miss the Kent four dayer as well.

Morning all,

From a Hampshire perspective we've kept with the same squad that has been on a poor run! Never change a 'losing' team..... (?)

Think we will be:

Carberry
Vince (c)
Adams
Shah
Wheater
Smith
Berg
Wood
Briggs
Arafat
Bird

Lots of bowling there, mainly because at least one of our 'senior' bowlers will have a shocker. Normally Jackson Bird.

has he not taken off for you yet jimbo

C'mon Surrey

Surrey win toss and bowl
Viscount misses out as expected

Jimbob's been at the refreshments!

Jimbob, haha you could say that! (re. Bird!)

Hants give young spinner Mason Crane a debut, think he is only 17 years old.

No Chris Wood or Jimmy Adams. Assume Wood has picked up a late knock. Big loss. Adams out tof form and ccurrently considering resigning as captain in the 4 day stuff

Looks like he hasn't waited for the pint glass...drunk straight from the tap today!

Carbs hits Burke for 4 fours then gets out to a great catch from Roy. 46-1

Are you there jimbo

Apart from Mahmood the Surrey bowlers have had what I've had

Surrey could be chasing a sizeable target here....I suggest that the Corporal stays behind the bar and carries on serving the drinks

Teenage dirtbag doing the damage

Burke and young Curran getting tonked

Poor from Batty he needed to back himself

Effing useless!!!!

Hopefully one of the experiences which will make our young bowlers better in the future - never easy going to the rose bowl against this batting line up

Take a bow Azhar excellent bowling

Top bowling from Mahmood at the death keeps us in the game I'd say.

Need Le Roi to get us off to a good start

How we long to have jade and Henriques back *sigh*

How drunk are you!!!!

Start the car....

Let's concentrate on promotion from Div 2....T20 an unnecessary distraction

Solanki having a net

Chasing a big score why bat Mahmood at 7 madness

Been out this evening and only just seen scores and comments.

The Champo is what most matters by far but still a very disappointing evening.

Well done, Jimbo - guess that keeps you going in this. I don't know what the maths say but realistically that must be us done for t20 this year. Corporal - you just may get the Burger Van serving up a few as Surrey's interest in the tournament winds down.

Not quite out of it yet Guildford with Glamorgan losing - although we probably need to win out from here in

  But only because it's a warm evening.

Late reply, but yes was there jimbob. Mahmood bowled well.
Big congrats to Mason Crane for getting his first wicket... Sangakarra - not a bad start.
Probably his worst ball of his spell too! Bowled a beauty to get rid of Solanki though
