Elton's Chigumbura's Northamptonshire Season

[sloandog]

A fiver for Chiggs Well bowled sir, and he's currently on 32* with the bat with a strike rate of over 100 keep going Chiggs

[jimbo]

Out for 33 on the stroke of lunch

He is underachieving just slightly in the batting department as A man of his undoubted talent should have a few 50's to his name for northants. Nethertheless a good cameo there from e the equation. He is certainly bowling well and northants will be well happy with his 5 wickets, I can see his contract being extended

[sloandog]

lets hope it does indeed get extended
It'll only improve his playing ability more and more

[bayhaus]

I don't see why they wouldnt extend his contract. We need him there! THEY need him there and if they don't renew his contract it will become political, Bob will intervene, we will here statements like "They can go hang" amongst other crude statements from a statesman and you can fill in the details...Renew the contract and save us from a lot of rhetoric!

[sloandog]

I sure hope he does get an extension on his contract
I watched Anthony Ireland bowl against Yorkshire tonight, he didn't bowl well at all and his pace was down (Flashes of the old Anthony Ireland). When I've seen him bowl in previous games he been clicking up to 87mph where as in todays game his quickest ball was 80 Mph

[Mike]

Maybe he had a niggle?

Chigumbura is doing well with the ball! I just hope he improves his batting

[jimbo]

Good economy in the match vs glouster at the moment

E Chigumbura 18 5 63 1 3.50

That's not really all that good an economy rate though...

[sloandog]

3.50 isn't great, but it's not terrible mate

[jimbo]

It is great from eltons point of view. His economy rate is quite high in the county championship even though he has been taking wickets consistently
