A decent platform. The commentator has said that 90% of the team's batting first at Radlett win there but 313 is the lowest winning total. Middlesex, in putting us in, clearly think we aren't capable of getting that.
I’ve only just recently gotten into cricket is 279 a decent score?
The hard thing with cricket is the answer to that question will vary massively depending on the venue, the specific wicket and the make up of the team. I would say that for this match we're probably about 50 under par but I haven't watched a ball, that's just based on the history of the venue
To be fair, we partially made this more likely by leaving out Compton and Gilchrist.
In high scoring games, the experience of going on to make match winning centuries is what we're missing with no Compton or the injured Joe Denly and DBD.

130 needed off 25 overs. Desperately need to break this partnership and fast too!
