I tried to copy Dilley's delivery stride - but couldn't figure out how (or why) he kept that front leg dangling in the air for so long. Then they showed a slow motion of his action sideways - and it was bizarre - his entire right foot dragged along the back crease for ages with his front leg stuck out in front. He basically scraped his body forwards before finally landing. Great pace though.
Ha. My little rant about pt 2 of this didn't allow for the fact that it was a 50 over game, not 60. But Kent should still have won this easily, even after Tav got out. Don't care if it was a bit dark and Garner was bowling...
ecause the captain was an idiot seriously if your not gonna give your number 10 a single over why pick him?? You are not to know his bowling woukld be ineffective until he had at a least 1 over .
3.57 is why we loved the master blaster so much.
Graham Dilley was seriously quick
I wonder if anyone could upload highlights of the semi-final when Ian Botham made a brilliant 96 not out.
Graham Dilley R.I.P

Somersets last stand with their great team after dominating the one day game (with Essex) in the late 70s
10:56 John Cleese guesting on the Somerset balcony??
Not many defend less than 200 and win a 50 over contest these days.
Kevin Bartram Sidney Jarvis. What a mouthful
Alan Knott dropping a catch. Didn't happen every day.

Yessir
...this is the first time I’ve seen an English
And when a wicket falls, no queuing up for stupid high fives
4 runs an over "quite brisk"
deadly derek didn't bowl a ball in this match
Did Underwood play but not bowl? Strange. Maybe picked for his batting :-) (Joke, Deadly is an English cricket legend!)
