[S'hampton Seagull]

Not being sure how the Net run rate is calculated, is it possible for Middlesex to overhaul us at the top? They've got 1 game left and are 2 points behind.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

A team’s net run rate is calculated by deducting from the average runs per over scored by that team, the average runs per over scored against that team. In the event of a team being all out in less than its full quota of overs, the calculation of the net run rate of both teams shall be based on the full quota of overs to which the batting team would have been entitled and not on the number of overs in which the team was dismissed.

Only those matches where results are achieved will count for the purpose of net run rate calculations. Where a match is abandoned, but a result is achieved under Duckworth/Lewis, for net run rate purposes Team 1 will be accredited with Team 2’s Par Score on abandonment off the same number of overs faced by Team 2. Where a match is concluded but with Duckworth/Lewis having been applied at an earlier point in the match, Team 1 will be accredited with 1 run less than the final Target Score for Team 2 off the total number of overs allocated to Team 2 to reach the target.

Er... yes, maybe. Probably.

Of course. Obvious really.

Gatting run out 133/5

 

[JCL - the new kid in town]

Why can't they bat this season?

 

[Simster]

Utter shite

 

[Simster]

146/7

Can't see us winning this now.

 

[Paxton Dazo]

We lost it when Gatting got run out. We're still in the Semi's, but I wanted a home-tie in the Semi's but that doesn't look like happening.

 

[Andrew]

Must frustrating evening.

[Lord Bracknell]

Why can't they bat this season?
