Think it will be his last FC knock now. Don't see any motivation for him to carry on playing the 4 day game.

Might as well earn more money playing t20 and becoming a commentator.

Surrey currently blasting their way to victory (hopefully) at the oval in a remarkable match http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/scorecard/o38023  Anyone else think Steven Davies would be a good addition to the England one day set up? His name hasn't been mentioned much of late but he's been in good form so far this year..

Thigh strain.

Good to see Surrey pull off a heist. They've flattered to deceive for too long.

No bowling attack. Always struggle to take 20 wickets, particularly at the Oval.

Tremlett is not the bowler we remember, Dunn/Ansari/Curran have a lot to learn, Batty does a holding job.

Excellent knock from Davies and Roy though, should set them up nicely for the T20 Friday evening.

Fair summary. Much a shame that Meaker has been ECBed and that George Edwards came to naught.

Should be fun to see Wahab Riaz for two games. Hopefully he picks up where he left off with Shane Watson!

There's always Dernbach though...

[Alvaro]

Dernbach's not a bad bowler. Got some ticker too.

[ajmw89]

Dernbach's injured, as is Tremlett now.  Meaker is apparantly spraying the ball all over the shop in the 2s.  Dunn is a wicket taker but far too expensive, if he tightens up he's got the attributes to be a high quality fast bowler.  Tom Curran will do well.

Assume Tim Linley is injured too? Surely he's the cure for their woes here,, bit of gentle medium accuracy, in the mould of Dave Masters & Steve Patterson.

[Alvaro]

without the wickets

without the wickets

Fair point, but he did do well in i think it was 2012? And unfortunately he's picked the wrong county to be a wobbly seam bowler at, having to play half his games at the Oval!

Tbh, i would guess they'll just prepare The Oval to be even more spin friendly from now on, what with Seamers falling like flies and Ansari & Batty doing the business at the moment.

[ajmw89]

Linley's on the comback from injury.  We've also got David Balcombe waiting in the wings
