Lancs current game at notts is live on YouTube 

Is that through a subscription den? Or free to air?

The last match I saw on YouTube was absolute bobbins, one camera angle, no commentary, no replays, bleedin awful.

Maybe its just me, suffering from football withdrawal symptoms, but why aren't we seeing more cricket on Tv from Sky or anyone else for that matter?

On Monday, after a hard day slicing golf balls into the rough, I plonk myself in front of the TV to watch a T20 Blast game and the only live sport is Netball, I do the same tonight and nothing, with 4 T20 games going on across the country? 

Its the same with the longer forms of the game, why aren't we seeing more cricket on Tv?

I know what you mean Gav as you would have thought they would have been more 20twenty coverage this week before the Test match. 

I'm looking forward to the Test match even I tho I would have picked a different squad to the one that has been pick by them

[chaddyrovers]

Matthew Potts will make his debut tomorrow in the first team. 

The team will be:-

Crawley Lees Pope Root Bairstow Stokes (C) Foakes (WK) Potts Leach Board Anderson 

[Mattyblue]

There will be a load of ECB owned ‘H***red’ games on across Sky and the BBC though…

It’s free Gav. The coverage has improved a lot. There is commentary and there are more cameras now It’s quite watchable.

Thanks for the link Den. I didn't realise live cricket was on YouTube. The coverage last night was very good. Not much of a match though - Notts were poor

I think every game they’ve played has been on, including county games.

Ill be at O.T. Later today.

The YouTube coverage is decent, although the commentary can be one-sided if you just have home commentators as last night.

I'll be there this afternoon too Den.

It is at Lancs. But when we were at Kent it was a shambles. They didn’t know anything. Kept referring to Crawley as the tall one. A bit like the online stuff at rovers I’m sure it’ll have a knock on effect with crowds

Slightly miffed about having to take the day off but extra long jubilee weekend. I assumed that a 3pm ko on a work day was to do with the kiddies on half term but apparently there’s another more ludicrous reason so I believe. 

[only2garners]

I think it's an experiment to see how the crowds go putting the men's game at 3pm and the women's at 7pm rather than the other way round. Obviously they're trying it on a day when the schools are off and I imagine a lot of people are off work as it's only a 3 day week. Friday's games are the other way round.

There’s a Scot’s steward properly enforcing not moving between overs. So funny at the t20. Love it. To be fair the t20 isn’t real cricket and I’ve never treated it as such but in terms of random decorum loving this fella. Might shake his hand. In between overs naturally. 😬

I've just located dens live stream on YouTube, its certainly improved since last time I tuned in.

Hope the weather stays fine for you matt.

I was just watching the live stream on youtube and it's gone off. Message says;

This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by England and wales cricket board.

🤷‍♂️

EDIT: Just checked on twitter, looks like it's a bogus copyright claim. Hopefully they get it back online quick, Lancs are going well.

First time in ten attempts we’ve won there in T20. Always one of the better sides in this format, so that’s some win.

Another good win today.

Old boys did well against us today. Defo an historic pattern. Plus the boundary under stand D was very short. Potentially something to do with the headline event 🤷‍♂️

Friday is the last t20 game at OT this season. Concert/100 season after 🎉

Yes, Reece often does well against us. I wonder if the locker he broke his hand on still bears the damage 😂

I doubt the position of the wicket had anything to do with the womens game. 

We’re looking good, but the ECB’s jolly  to the Netherlands will severely weaken the side in a few weeks time.

Here’s to more of the same on Friday.

No it isn’t. They are playing Birmingham Bears on 3/7 at OT.

[chaddyrovers]

anyone watching the first test match. Surely if you win the toss you bat first. 

Lets hope Stokes and McCullum can inspire out top 3 into loads of runs and get a good first inning score. 

[Gav]

NZ win the toss and bat, as chaddy suggested above.

First wicket down, Anderson is back, superb catch by Bairstow low down.
