Gloucestershire gain the edge, as Surrey get bowled out for 225: County Championship Division Two – 1st Day’s Recap
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013, on Sunday, June 19, 2011.
The hosts managed 225 runs in their first innings and were bowled out whereas the Gloucestershire batsman collected 171 for the loss of four wickets until close of play. They still trail by 54 runs, but have six wickets in hand.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Thomas-George-Burrows-c93472 it wasn’t bad for the batsmen either. Surrey managed a respectable total in the end, but would have liked to score atleast more than 250.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Mark-Ravin-Ramprakash-c74709.
The pair put together 57 runs for the second wicket partnership and the home team looked well under control. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Andrew-Symonds-c44611 played aggressive cricket, but was unable to carry onto the start to his innings and was dismissed after adding 40 runs to the total from 45 deliveries.
Ramprakash was also unable to make most of the start and was sent back to the pavilion after adding 30 runs to the total. He looked solid in the middle, but would have been disappointed to throw his wicket away.
Wicketkeeper batsman, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/SM-Davies-c2542, failed to get going and was dismissed after scoring just one run. This left the home team with four wickets down for just 90 runs on the board.
Their struggle continued, as wickets kept on tumbling. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Gareth-Batty-c1456 got out after adding three and two runs to the total in their respective outings. This left Surrey in a very vulnerable position, being six down for just 108 runs on the board.
However, the innings was stabilised by http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Yasir-Arafat-c98241. The pair collected 57 runs for the seventh wicket before the latter got dismissed for 44.
De Bruyn top scored the innings with 66 runs and was the ninth wicket to fall in the Surrey innings. His effort guided the team to a respectable total in the end.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Ian-David-Saxelby-c63809 bowled really well, dismissing four batsmen in the day.
Gloucestershire lost a couple of early wickets, but http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Hamish-Marshall-c1525 also played well for his 35, but failed to carry onto the start.
At close of play, Gidman was unbeaten on 22 alongside http://www.senore.com/Cricket/David-Alan-Payne-c52579, who collected six runs.
