  1. TMS 21-0published at 3 overs

    Chris Hughes, of Love Island fame, is proving a handy bowler. Solid line and length, a bit of extra bounce... he's put the Cat back in the hat.

    Until, that is, he bowls a full toss and is pawed through the covers for four more. Tuffers is now 18 not out.

    He's hogging the strike here is Tuffers.

  3. TMS 14-0published at 2 overs

    Tufnell 14 (11 balls)

    Phil 'Vivian Richards' Tufnell clobbers another four, this time off Laura Wright. He'll knock these off in no time. A masterstroke to promote him to open.

    He'll drive it off the outside edge all day.

    You can't expect to bowl a ball there to Tufnell and get away with it.

  6. TMS 6-0published at 1 over

    Phil Tufnell does much better than Monty Panesar did when opening for Tailenders. Faced with a crowded slip cordon, he takes the close catchers out of the equation with a sliced four down to third man. Up and running.

    Daniel Norcross has been joined in the commentary box by 2013 Great British Bake Off winner Frances Quinn.

    Obviously she's brought some sweet goodies with her.

    She's made a Tailenders themed tiffin - it's got plenty of spice.

    Only problem is, there's no knife to cut it with!

    I'm a pinch hitter today.

    Here we go then. Former England internationals Phil Tufnell and Lydia Greenway are going to set TMS on their way in pursuit of their target of 162.

    And while we wait for the action to resume, let me point you in the direction of the respective TMS and Tailenders podcasts.

    Both are exceptional, especially if you like cricket and enjoy the humorous side of the game.

    During the break between innings, Hassan Khan, who plays for England's blind cricket team, is giving a demonstration of how he plays cricket and the equipment he and his team-mates use. There's a handy guide to this wonderful format of the game on the ECB website, here., external

    Tufnell owes me. His bowling was atrocious. He must have gone for 45. He's going to open the batting. He needs 30 not out quickly.

    I thought my team were fantastic. We batted brilliantly.

    And neither did Simon Hughes' mystery ball...

    What we do know is Monty Panesar didn't last long...

    It's a pretty decent total.

    So Tailenders set TMS a target of 162...

    Felix White, by the way, soaked up the applause for his 11 not out like a seasoned international cricketer playing the last of his 150 Tests. Soak it in, Felix.
