geez batsman's picnic.

How often would a game have three innings over 500?

Yeah, it would have been a snorefest.

I'm following this on the Assoc of Cricket Statisticians forum. The initial thinking there is that, putting aside the individual performance of Morris, this is the only time in f-c cricket that a side has compiled a 300 run stand in each innings, regardless of the batsmen involved.
 
The just completed Leicestershire-Derbyshire CC match.

It's believed to be the highest scoring f-c match ever to contain just the one century.

It would be interesting to see if Leicestershire's match aggregate (484 & 9/357) is the highest not to contain a century as well. I'll post any updates on that if I find out.

As a sidenote, Jewell is playing for Derbyshire - his two matches have seen him score 61, 51*, 83 & 73.

Tails wagged, Harry Came prematurely, our only Test bowler opened the batting, didn't take a wicket, and didn't bowl in the 2nd innings. 41 year old Madsen got a bunch of runs again.
 
841 by Leicestershire turns out to be the third highest f-c match aggregate by a side not containing a century.

Second highest was Islamabad in 2011 (337 & 8-526).

And, drum roll, here is the record - 889 by Sri Lanka A in 1999 (364 & 7-525):

UAE Women were 0-192 after 16 overs in a T20 vs Qatar and then retired out the whole team.

Apparently rain was forecast and they wanted enough time to bowl out the opposition.

I saw that Sherb...

There have been some big scores this round - Middlesex 534, Kent 8-566 and Worcs 7-679. Adam Hose getting 266 off 253 balls.

Not only this round but there have been some huge scores in the County Championship this year.

Think its been a hot dry summer over there, perhaps the decks have been main roads & the bowling attacks aren't great?

They use using the Kookaburra balls this round, apparently.

Surrey's all-time highest f-c score, beating their 811 in the century before last (1899).

It was the fourth highest total in the history of county cricket.

www.bbc.com

County Championship: Surrey hit club record 820-9 dec against Durham

Surrey rack up 820-9 dec against Durham, the fourth highest total in the history of county cricket.
www.bbc.com www.bbc.com

It is also believed to be (tbc) the second highest total ever by a team that was put into bat after losing the toss, after this match:
 
England's first innings against India this match.

Total score of 407, includes:
  • 6 ducks
  • Two first ball ducks
  • Two second ball ducks
  • Nobody passing a score of 22 apart from two players.
  • Nobody lasting more than 46 balls apart from two players.
  • Nobody staying at the crease more than 90 minutes apart from two players.
  • A partnership of 303, the next highest partnership was 59....and the next highest ones after that were barely double figures.

Was looking for a big wow after Rehan bowled us to victory with 13 for the match to go along with a century. This appears to be the 26th occasion a player has done this specific double in a match, and only one player has achieved it more than once. No, it's not Grace or Botham, Procter or Imran Khan.

And one of the great all-round performances in cricket history
 
Couldn't find a thread on the current Champions tournament, but Jon Hastings had an absolute shocker this week. In his only over he bowled 12 wides and a no ball, as Pakistan rolled us by 10 wickets. He bowled 18 balls and didn't even complete an over. :drunk:
