Is anyone else going to the Oval for the game starting tomorrow?We’ll have to play a lot better than we did against Essex last week to get a result.
I have complimentary tickets if anyone fancies a freebie tomorrow?The perks of being a member of Surrey ccc.
It’s the only day I’ll be able to attend I think as we have my daughter’s wedding in a couple of weeks time and I’ve got to give enough time for the black eyes and bruises to heal.
Send me a pm if you want a free day at the cricket.
Come on the brown hatters. |  | | |  |

Am a Surrey fan, going along but when went to the game on Sunday, Surrey were arounds 57 for 6 after 12 overs I think.
Anything can happen in cricket, particularly T20 cricket. |  |

Yep, anything can happen in T20. However, you're nailed on to win tonight against a side that has lost all its T20 games to date (10), to add to their three losses in their last three T20 games from last season. |  | | |

With this Middlesex bowling line up thought 300 was and is a real possibility at some point I think 20 years ago I would've got a game in this team | | | |

Will be the highest aggregate run score in T20 in England if Middle score another dozen or so. | |

Of course you’re not Surrey,but if you had the chance to keep all the proceeds from test matches at your own ground rather than a rented one are you telling me that middlesex wouldn’t adopt a similar system to Surrey?Or would they prefer to stay uncompetitive for most of the season by not signing better players to improve their squad because they have principles? | | | |

I went yesterday for my usual annual trip without much hope. After Surreys innings I had even less hope.
How wrong can you be. :D |  | | |

Wow!
Don't know how you can go from losing your last fourteen T20 games to doing THAT, but there you are.
Amazing win! | |

Mrs Superhoop went last night as a neutral as part of a corporate event. She said it was amazing - And as a Kent supporter she was happy to see Surrey get their comeuppance!!!
Me, I was sat at home watching the current form team in the South group the mighty Spitfires complete their 5th straight win, and spit Essex out in the process.
Off to Canterbury tonight where hopefully Middlesex will be drained from their exploits last night and we make it 6 out of 6 and keep pressing for that quarter final place |  | | |

You absolutely battered my team, Essex Eagles, last night at the ECG. I think we'll still get through, but there's no doubting which team is currently performing the best in the T20 south division.
All of your batsmen are scoring, Billings aside. I just don't get the inclusion of Linde and him being elevated up the batting order as a pinch/big hitter, which he isn't. Alex Blake can definitely do that and If he were to replace Linde, I believe that you would be an even tougher proposition.
Is Blake still at the club? If so, why's he not playing. [Post edited 24 Jun 2023 0:25]

Myself and my dad went. We weren’t going to pay the £40 a ticket, but somebody at Middlesex got me free tickets. Have to say, one of my most favourite T-20 games I’ve been to. And I do love the oval, I think I’m preferring it to Lords. Just based on the atmosphere. We were sat in the JM Finn Stand, middle tier. There was a really cool bar above and on the level below with lots of fake grass. Was really cool. [Post edited 23 Jun 2023 21:15]

As I said anything can happen in t20.
After Surrey's opening stand, was wondering what odds would be on Middlesex
Incredibly poor display from Surrey in the field but Middlesex still had to score the runs. They walked it !!
Was so enjoying the game halfway through and even sat at back of JM Finn stand caught a rocket launched kia oval win £1000 Black t shirt, whilst holding a pie in the other, took it also from the hands of my mate, shame it wasn't one of the many sixes.
Was kind of weird being applauded for that but although it was an incredible run chase, was a severely disappointing result.
Looked like there was a full. House at the Oval. Am guessing that's somewhere between 25 000 and 30 000.
Families, girlfriends, work colleagues and groups of mates all attending.
You couldn't help feel cricket has totally embraced its commercial and fun element that appeals to all, whilst football matches are going the other way, more play acting, more dissent, more passages of play, just going through the motions and way less actual action and entertainment and not just speaking about QPR but in general as a sport.
Football definitely has got angrier, less entertaining and more cynical over the years.
Maybe in 30 years football won't be the main entertainment sports wise. Certainly could learn lessons from t20 cricket at its best.
I guess the people allowed to drink as much as they wish and during the game throughout and no trouble whatsoever, more banter, but never any threats violence at all. Never understand this side that football seems to bring. I guess many take it more personally if their team loses, disappointment happens in cricket and rugby to be fair but there is never an undercurrent of violence and as said everyone drinking openly.
But apart from result for me was great night out.
I know QPR have had better days but can't really remember last football match I went to where I said it was a great night out even the wins also. [Post edited 24 Jun 2023 3:03]

After the Surrey Innings, I must admit, we were fearing the worst. I think you could’ve gone into any bookmakers and they would’ve given you your own odds on Middlesex to win. Even with Eski and Cracknells stand, I’m just used to us collapsing. We did same vs Glamorgan at home chasing and once the openers were out that was it.
It was just a great evening. I parked on glasshouse walk, easily. A bit of a pain that I had to pay the congestion charge. Had a quick non-alcoholic beer in the beehive. Straight to our seats at the game. There was a lovely breeze which stopped it from being stifling hot. The cracking atmosphere, like you said it was full of people straight from work, cricket fans, kids. Much better than any hundred nonsense. I read attendance was 20k, it was a sell out
Can we sign your lad ‘extras’ please [Post edited 24 Jun 2023 8:00]
