Kiwi mafia sticking together. I hope we haven't got another Lou Vincent on our hands!

 

[Titanic]

Tea, Day 4

Essex 172-4 (59 overs), Cook 84*

157 or 6 wickets from 32 overs... the draw looking likely unless Essex have a change of heart and have a go at it.

Is anyone on here listening to the commentary overseas, my mate in Japan has lost the ability to listen on the BBC app today, fears they may have stopped broadcasting overseas, if so does anyone know what channel it works on Tune In radio, I have a mac you normally need to listen via windows player and it shows the number at the bottom

Could be - he likes to catch up late at night. Would be a shame if the BBC stop broadcasting domestic cricket overseas

We can but hope, but another wicket will get me excited at the prospect of a collapse and a win. It will make me more disappointed when we don't!

Also what has happened with the !? Does anyone else see it as purple and bit bolder now?

Are you know officially excited

Yep, and I will be even if they stop scoring and we stop taking wickets. All the way up to 4 balls left. I am a massive optimist with cricket and pessimist with football.

No idea why I fluctuate so much between the sports
