Sussex (Nil Point) CCC vs Surrey CCC @ Horsham (4 Dayer)

[vegster]

Well now that Sussex have been saved by bad light and a bit of drizzle, my mood is far too good to be arguing with you on this point.

Bad light ? After 200+ balls Wells should be seeing it like a Spacehopper....axe him now

 

[mlg57]

Is the next batting point at 250 or 300?

 

[Storer 68]

What a marvellous ton by young Luke.....now drop him until he can score at a reasonable rate. Over 200 balls to get there is slow play and the reason most county games have no spectators

au contraire el veg. a century off 200 balls is quite quick, in fact supersonic compared to this lot...........................................
The record for slowest centuries in Test Cricket is given below:

1) In 557 minutes by Mudassar Nazar of Pakistan against
England at Lahore 1977-78

2) In 545 minutes by DJ McGlew of South Africa against
Australia at Durban in 1957-58

3) In 535 minutes by AP Gurusinha of Sri Lanka against
Zimbabwe at Harare in 1994-95

4) In 516 minutes by JJ Crowe of New Zealand against
Sri Lanka at Colombo (CCC) in 1986-87

5) In 500 minutes by SV Manjrekar of India against
Zimbabwe at Harare in 1992-93

6) In 488 minutes by PE Richardson of England against
South Africa at Johannesburg in 1956-57

250

 

[Storer 68]

250 (you get an extra point for every 50 runs from 200 to 400)

Cheers guys

Fantastic knock by Wells. Why didnt we pick him instead of Goodwin against Middlesex?!

Ask Yardy!!

 

[Gazwag]

Cricinfo are having a right laugh with us today - they are now saying Monty has hit a six

Indeed. Absurd. More importantly, why are Sussex still batting? We have our third bonus point, so surely time to get them in and chuck some pies at them?

 

[Taybha]

that cant be right shirley

 

[Storer 68]

I just don't know what is going off out there!!!!!!

106.2
Kartik to Panesar, SIX

 

[Simster]

Now Anyon has tonked a SIX too. 321/9

 

[Gazwag]

Anyon 50 and has now past his best score ever of 53, they need to stop bowling underarm

 

[Simster]

110.6 Kartik to Panesar, FOUR
110.5 Kartik to Panesar, FOUR

LAUGHS.

 

[Simster]

111.1 Batty to Anyon, SIX

75 run stand.

 

[Simster]

PANESAR has hit 3 fours in 3 successive balls. This is HILARIO.

 

[Gazwag]

And another bonus point rolls in and its all over 351

 

[Pavilionaire]

80 put on by the last pair, Monty with 31. That Surrey buffet was truly delicious!

 

[bardo]

No fourth bonus point because 350 has to be within 110 overs but great lead and brilliant innings by Anyon and Panesar

How often does our tail-end save us?
