Lancashire vs Durham

[Man of Harveys]

Lancs 2/1 according to SSN

 

[Timbo]

Sutcliffe's out!!

 

[Scoffers]

He obviously did cut to the mustard


Er,um


I'll get my coat

 

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

It's not impossible for Lancs to get a win in this match - they've got to score very quickly today, and tomorrow morning, skittle Durham out in 50 overs and then knock off whatever remains - a big ask but not impossible

And the fact that they need to get those runs quickly could lead to a nervy batting performance. Hopefully.

Certainly looks that way at the start

Lancashire: 2-1
Durham: 372

[Everest]

Lancs only need another 221 to make Durham bat again.

So as I see it the max the Lancs can get is 11 pts leaving them 8 pts adrift of us. Leaaing us to ensure they don't better our points haul in the last game by the said 8 pts.

yes...

best estimate of Lanky's points haul from this game now is perhaps 10

that would leave them 9 pts adrift going into the final game

are Sussex really 1/10 given that scenario....?

we would need a maximum points draw or a win to be sure of the title - anything else leaves the door invitingly ajar...

Is there a weather web cam at either the Rose Bowl or Trent Bridge?

The wet factor needs to included in any what-if calculations.

[Barrel of Fun]

Is that a Bird sitting in front of the camera?

 

[Everest]

No, that's Warne after getting hit while batting.

 

[Timbo]

Why did Lancs go back out before lunch? Not that I'm complaining mind.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

I think someone needs to tell the umpires it is lunchtime.

 

[Everest]

Not anymore, it isn't.
Underway again.

Lancs 10-1 after 6

 

[Moshe Gariani]

at least the improved weather has brought the fans out in force....

 

[Everest]

They're not fans, that's the Durham team.

nice webcam picture at 14:20:05...

Lancashire 46 for 1 in the 17th over

Killeen to Loye

3 slips, gully, point, mid off, mid on, square leg and presumably a fine leg...


a wicket soonish would be nice - Lanky making steady progress towards an 11 pt draw could lead to scenes of tension next week that would push some over the edge...
