The IPL starts today on Sky Sports. Most games have a 3pm start and are on just about every day through to the end of May. 
Still time to get in your bottles of Cobra and Bombay, sorry Mumbai, mix. My rupees are on  the Rajasthan Royals, mainly due to the Lanky connections. 
I would have gone for Sunrisers Hyderabad if that cheating little git Warner wasn’t in their team. Enjoy it.

Cracking captain's knock by Dane, 189.

Looks like the weather might have thwarted us here. Shame as the last time we scored over 400 at home to sussex during the first game of a season and started the campaign with successive homes matches was 2011...

Cracking game in the IPL today. Punjab Kings look like posting 220/230 with Ben Stokes and Jos Buttler in the Rajasthan Royals line-up.

A good solid start for Lancs today with the Darwen lad doing well again.

Edit: he literally got out while I was posting this - when will I bloody learn!?

Perhaps it would have been a better bet not having him carry the water all over the sub continent than having Bess serving up pies.

They were talking about it on sky this morning. I’m 99% sure he’s bowled that exact same delivery before as remember the same comparison. Perhaps (almost certainly) that wasn’t televised being the difference and doesn’t play for Surrey.

Also re which one is better I’ll defend Parky’s as the better to any Australian or non Lancastrian but only one winner really. Both same delivery and both at ot. But one is a wicket to dismiss gatting England’s number 3 test average of 40 ish and premier player of spin Parky got rid of Adam Rossington

Lancs racking up the runs at Kent. Congratulations to Luke Wood and Danny Lamb, both of whom have just scored their highest first class score.

Incredible from lancs. Didn’t think 500+ was on the cards at 248/7. In fact overnight at 260/7 I’d have taken 300.

Record 8th wicket partnership for lancs and lambs 125 was the highest score from a Lancs number 9

Not a bad start with the ball either!

[matt83]

23/2. Denly edged one. 😮

Crawley gone first ball.

85/5

[matt83]

Good win for Lancs that. Parky 7 for.

[Darrenbot]

When do we play the Yorkies? looks like that game could sort out top spot in the division.

[only2garners]

At home on 27th May over the bank holiday and away at Scarborough on 11th July. A long way to go yet though- only 3 games out of 10 gone.

I quite like this new set up. Keeps interest for all the teams throughout. Also, good to see the ‘also-rans’ that have been stuck in the second division for years having a chance to compete.

Love it!
