Exiled Girl Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 he got his county cap When did a capless captain last win a county championship match for Lancs? (Don't know the answer...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maaarsh Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Not in the ODI squads so we've got him for the next month, but likely to be absent for large parts of June with Lions (and reasonable chance of the same for Hameed unless he makes his main team selection case more obvious before then). Nevertheless, great start to the season - would have loved to have got over the line in either of the first 2 games, but looking around it's hard to see a much better team out there so should be a good year.

MalcolmW Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 When did a capless captain last win a county championship match for Lancs? (Don't know the answer...) Maybe Archie MacLaren v Yorkshire in 1893? He was captain for the match and club captain the following season. His first appearance was as an 18 year-old in 1890. Although he topped the averages in 1892 he did not play regularly as he was working at the District Bank, so he may well not have been capped.

miamiwhite Posted May 12, 2017 Author Share Posted May 12, 2017 Good win for the Red Rose Express. That target we chased down under the Dickhead/Lewis system wants some looking at. I'm scratching my napper trying to work that figure out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MalcolmW Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Good win for the Red Rose Express. That target we chased down under the Dickhead/Lewis system wants some looking at. I'm scratching my napper trying to work that figure out. Derbyshire batted in the expectation of facing many more overs than they did, and saved wickets to no great benefit. Lancs knew how many overs they might face and therefore could risk wickets to chase runs. Therefore the target was (far) more than Derbyshire scored. But as D & L are both Lancastrians it is fair - really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may find "Duckworth Lewis: The Method and the Men behind it" by Frank Duckworth and Tony Lewis of interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
