[Gwylan]

This suggests it happened last year

The question was when did it happen in first-class cricket, so no, not since 2000

We have turned in to sodding Derbyshire.....

Scorecard makes interesting reading - Fall of Wickets - 33,33,33,33,33..........
5-0 in 10 balls

 

[Simster]

We are FOUR runs ahead at the luncheon interval. A moral victory.

And dare I say it, I make it honours even*.




(*assuming we can get get four wickets in four balls when we bowl)

I've just found out Mum is at the match, it's clearly HER fault.

We're still 36 runs ahead Mark. Somerset still need to get those runs if they are to win...

114 - 8

Sigh.

 

[Badger]

The lead has passed FIFTY, still got a two wicket CUSHION too

To be honest, this is going about 24% better than I had calculated twelve days ago. Looking forward to the T20 Kent v Sussex game - not because I think we'll do well, but because I like to sit down.

 

[Simster]

Piolet just hit a six. We just got 14 runs in two overs, which is twice as many runs as came from the previous TEN overs.

I like cameos like this - we know we are going to lose, but it entertains a crowd happy to patronise the "plucky" minnow Sussex opposition with some meaningless applause.

 

[The Wizard]

We are turd, no change there then.

No, we're FIFTH actually.

9/166

 

[Badger]

Somerset require 104 runs to win, not too bad considering we were 33/5.
