This new substitution rule is a shambles.

What a load of rubbish, mate…

How about this then:

Twice in a row! What are the odds of that happening?!
Even with wearing his ball box, that’s still got to cause some permanent damage!

The answer is pretty resounding..

 

[Connor]

One of those Jimmy spells

 

[Connor]

Golden arm Balderson with 5

Glos 136 all out

 

[summerisle]

As they say, wasted on him.

 

[Exeter_Gently]

Realistically how long can Jimmy play on for.

[Eggs]

…..terrific morning for Lancs so far, bowling Glos out for 136.

 

[Exeter_Gently]

@Eggs it was just a general question about Jimmy thats all.

I just wanted to know the general consensus.

 

[Walken]

Realistically how long can Jimmy play on for.

The remarkable thing is how he looks in the field, incredible that he can eecute his skillset bowling but not unthinkable. But to not look like a older guy in the field is mad.

I remember bill burr talking about brady and say when he's in the pocket he looks like he will live forever, but when running looked like someone had thrown a dead body out of a car. None of that with Jimmy, he is incredible

….i know, that’s why I responded with a ‘not sure’.

There was a bit of a discussion about it on BBC text earlier. It’s such an unknown for a seamer to last this long but he looks in great shape and amazingly maintains his enthusiasm for playing.

Ahead of this game he did mention rotating bowlers but I suppose the answer to the question is he’ll likely play as long as he wants to. I get the impression everybody who likes the game just loves watching him, players and fans alike. Enjoy it whilst we can.

I don't think it's wide of the mark to suggest he looks as fit as he's ever looked.

Obviously we're fully aware of father time,plus his fitness issues in the past.

But looking at him today he looks in fantastic shape for his age.

Lancashire still going well, 114-2, Jennings, like he's never been away, 56*,

 

[Eggs]

….Lancs lose Jennings, lead by 4 with 7 wickets remaining.

Maybe a lead of circa 150 is the hope.

Edit; Jones quickly follows, mini-collapse
