[Cricket] LV= County Championship Division One, Yorkshire v Sussex at Leeds, Sep 22-25, 2015

[Rogero]

It's not looking good for us.

 

[GOM]

With Rashid out there could be a quick run dash and declare

 

[BensGrandad]

Our inability to ever consistently form partnerships of over 50 runs for any of our first 5/6 wickets is why we are in this dreadful position this season, and I wouldn't be surprised if this exact deficiency seals our fate tomorrow.

We have never adequately replaced Murray Goodwin.

 

[stss30]

We got a wicket

 

[Si Gull]

Bresnan and Rashid will prob knock off a quick 100 partnership. The end is nigh.

Oh well, at least that didn't happen.

 

[Pavilionaire]

The Goff strikes, 238/7, a lead of 241. Too little, too late. Another 10 runs and our goose is cooked.

I put that at least partially down to our inability to grind out a score. Only Joyce and Yardy perhaps are capable of scoring a long slow innings. Everyone else is trying to score at 70-90 runs per 100 balls. We need joyce to get a start, as he CAN do that.

Agree, under pressure we are unlikely to make any total much over 200 on this wicket.....but you never know!

 

[BensGrandad]

If our batsmen can see out tomorrow will that be sufficient to save us assuming Yorksrire are either all out or declare tonight.

 

[Moshe Gariani]

back on

Our batsmen are unlikely to score over 200 on any wicket, batting last.

 

[Gazwag]

The first t15 overs of Hampshire's reply will pretty much decide things there, I reckon.

Come out fighting, reach 60 for 0 or 1 and they'll cruise it. 40/3 and they'll crumble, to be A/O for less than 100.

Its the former, quite easily at the moment

 

[Simster]

We will be out for 182 tomorrow afternoon, and the Hampshire players (and Stuart Broad) will be toasting another season in the top flight.

 

[BensGrandad]

Our batsmen are unlikely to score over 200 on any wicket, batting last.

Isnt batting time more important than runs scored for us unless Luke has a screamer and we go for the win.

 

[stss30]

Edit: back playing

 

[jabba]

agree. we're more likely to stay up by playing out time for a draw than chasing a win............

 

[Bold Seagull]

I'm not sure I want us taking any wickets!!! Yorks now 244/7. Need to keep them in on a slow run rate till lunch tomorrow!

 

[BensGrandad]

Or rain in both places until about 4pm.hopefully. Wasnt a game abandoned once because somebody sabotaged the wicket overnight.

 

[Moshe Gariani]

Depends on the target. My preference remains that Yorkshire bat through until at least 11.00am tomorrow and that the game ends in a draw.

I do, and we won't.
