Starts today with England v NZ at Lords.
Finishes with us raising the urn in Oz. Gorgeous day for it, anyone get tix? After having loads of games sorted last year I thought it prudent not to bother this season.
Will be listening to TMS, just hope they have anyone in place of Daniel Norcross whom aggravates me something chronic. [Post edited 2 Jun 2021 9:09]

Been really good couple of tests for NZ even with amount of changes.
Just hope we can perform vs India as have nasty habit of not winning finals. |  | | |

I have always had a soft spot for New Zealand, in the early 90s I met Dion Nash and Stephen Fleming on the England tour. I was a junior Middlesex member and they played a New Zealand touring side at lords and we were welcomed into a dressing room, as part of a family day. | | | |

Dion Nash was unlucky with injuries & never got to fulfil his potential - saw him at Lords in mid 90’s get a 50 & 11 wickets - poor bloody light meant we couldn’t bowl quicks & get the last 2 wickets to win the test.

They are not a bad side & should be granted more than two test matches! | | | |

It’s just as well that they weren’t given any more.Unless we can back some of our injured team we’d be blackcap washed.
I met quite a few Kiwis at the final at Lords 2 years ago,and they took defeat very well and still posed for photos.A massive victory today goes someway to making up for their disappointment in 2019.
It’s a country I’d love to visit before I get too old. | | | |

Well, that didn't take too long. Phew, just managed to bang out Jerusalem before the Kiwis reach their inevitable target! [Post edited 13 Jun 2021 11:13]

He was awful for Middlesex unlike Stephen Fleming he's the second best captain I've seen behind Mike Brearley | | | |

Plenty of England soul searching (no denying NZ are a very good Test side), but this is what happens when you prioritise white ball cricket. |  |

for me, Justin Langer was an excellent captain, led by example and fully immersed himself in the club, he'd stop and talk to anyone at uxbridge games. | | | |

To be fair he was a decent player bet he couldn't help Middlesex this season unless he could average 100 then we might be competitive | | | |

It’s looking bleak isn’t it. Really enjoyed being at lords last Thursday despite the result. Looking forward to Both games at radlett this week, think hey could be high scores if we bowl first. | | | |

Normally it's 6 or 7 games before we give up the hope of qualifying for Finals day we seem to have given up at the start this year. When your overseas signing if Paul Stirling then you are not planning to win it. I have a weeks holiday and am going to Cheltenham for the County Championship game wonder what I can do on the 4th day | | | |

I wouldn't back the current Middlesex top 6 to average 100 collect timely. |  |

Not sure what exactly our batting coaches do because in the last 2 years Gubbins has got considerably worse Robson's quite obvious technical flaws haven't been rectified if anything they are worse and Holden shouldn't be anywhere near a county contract. I think Clive Radley and Mike Gatting would both get in this team in their sixties and not be the worst player. The bowling I have some promise in Bamber and Cullen and enjoy the 2 old pros Murtagh and Roland Jones but Finn is finished at this level without the 5 yards of pace that he's lost. Fully expect next season with a return to 2 Division Play to come bottom for the first time in our history | | | |

Enjoy the games Radlett just is a bit too much of a trek for me to get back in time for my night shift will be heading to Lords to see our annual make Ten Doeschate look like Bradman game luckily this year we are so bad he won't have to save them | | | |

I was just going to say, if you’re at Radlett I will buy you a beer. It’s going to be a bit of a Pfaff now getting tickets for Lords, for the remaining games, with the reduced capacity. For the Surrey game I had to sit by the computer at 10 am, especially as I had to get me and my dad tickets set together, with our Middlesex membership, via the Lord’s ticket website bizarrely. Made it awkward | | | |

I work 6 pm to 6 am so choose to be asleep at 10 am so will be missing out on them probably go to Merchant Taylors for the Sunday and Monday of the game against Leicestershire . Should've seen just how hard it was booking tickets for away at Gloucestershire I was able to book train tickets and hotel quicker than get a first day then a second then a third and fourth day ticket | | | |

Total mismanagement from the top from Goatley and Fraser unfortunately. The batting hasn't been fixed for years.
Added to the fact we appear to be brassic and there's supposedly some pensions issue which will impact the finances further.
Anyway off to Radlett tonight for more fun and games... | |

What a lovely evening, beautiful sunshine, good company and a great game of cricket. However, I think the club got it wrong, 10 rows of seats sloping backwards made views bad. Usually they spread the seats around the whole ground, obviously with Covid they closed off 3/4 of the ground. We ended up standing for most of the game. Food was bad too and I had to park my car in 3 foot high grass. Why didn’t they cut it LOL., still though, shouldn’t moan, thought it was all over at 30-3. Will Morgan ever score runs for us again. I think he is only eligible for the next two games. Then we won’t see him till next season. | | | |

Yeah what a lovely evening. At 30 for 3 I definitely didn't see the win coming! Top effort from young Joe Cracknell and Simpson too.
Indeed we ended up standing at the back for a better view! | |
