Rain played spoilsport in Round 6 of the County Championship, yet there was no paucity of enthralling moments across the four days. In what comes as a website first, we, here at SportsCafe, have collated the best moments from Round 6 to fill you up with the ‘must-see’ moments across the four days.

Archer vs Crawley? There was always going to be just one winner...

Just a 33-year-old Kyle Abbott making Peter Handscomb look like a Sunday League cricketer

Nothing. Just the batsman's leg-stump doing its best Neymar impersonation

Okay, this is why Ollie Robinson is getting his maiden England cap next month

One s̶t̶o̶n̶e̶ ball, two b̶i̶r̶d̶s̶ stumps

Dismissing the batsman with a ripper whilst tumbling to the ground - the most Mark Wood dismissal of all time

Never change, R-oh-no-Ry Burns!

6, 6, 6 and a ridiculous 4 - Dan Lawrence showing why he should be in the team for the first Test of the summer at Lord's

Honestly, when you have umpires like this, there is absolutely no need for instant or slow-mo replays

Sachin Tendulkar, eat your heart out

Wait, no one told us that Kieron Pollard changed his name to Ned Eckersley

99 and gone :(  (This was the first time in 2021 that Root failed to convert a fifty into a hundred)

Simon Harmer took a Kolpak because he is too cool for International cricket. And oh, he took 9 wickets in one innings, btw!

Yep. Stuart Broad has got nothing on Keith Barker. Can confirm that this the best celebrappeal we've seen from an English bowler

How lucky are Glamorgan to have acquired the services of the best red-ball bowler in Australia

Let's just call this "Mid-wicket beauty"

Decent reflexes for a 40-year-old, eh?

Can someone just add the Titanic music to make this perfect?
