Today ?

Today ?

Yes and all day tomorrow no doubt

 

[Beach Hut]

0/1 after 1.1 overs

 

[vegster]

This second wicket partnership is worrying,7 runs ahead already....

 

[jakarta]

These pair have a top score of 284 and 254 respectively so every chance it will be 600-1 by Tea tomorrow.

These pair have a top score of 284 and 254 respectively so every chance it will be 600-1 by Tea tomorrow.

It's 70-1 already. This must be the worst insertion since Gareth Gates decided to shag Katie Price

 

[blueandwhitestripes]

79/3. !!!

 

[vegster]

Hope springs, with a few showers we might yet get out of this with a draw and a few bonus points.

We have the one already, no need to be greedy......

 

[Eeyore]

I think we could restrict them to about 600. But we need a wicket quickly.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

83/3 at stumps. Advantage Somerset.

Their No.11 sounds like the sort of chap to install some backbone into our batting line-up - is he available?

I think he is going to be inundated with offers.

 

[Southwest Seagull]

As a Somerset fan, all the Sussex pessimism before the match was not needed at all, I knew we'd be rubbish.

Also we can't bowl so you'll get a nice bat.

 

[blueandwhitestripes]

we'll have none of your West Country sorcery here

 

[Southwest Seagull]

We're too simple to have sorcery.

Don't drink the cider and you'll be fine

 

[Horton's halftime iceberg]

Nightwatchman (no2) gone, Peterson already dropped, Banger about to start the car

Somerset 104/4 (40.0 ov)

Lunch

Somerset 174/4 (64.0 ov)

 

[jakarta]

Have just found a Pub with wi-fi. I see Pies are also being served down at Hove.....

 

[Pavilionaire]

222/4 - ton-up Banger and the 'nice' Petersen flaying our attack. Extended lunch for the Zomerzet crew - more pie Marcus? Another slice of flan, Alviro? Om nom nom etc etc...

 

[Taybha]

Peterson chucks away his wicket 229-5

 

[Pavilionaire]

1. Serve up Banger a smorgasbord.
2. Cure his depression.
3. Opener position sorted for the summer tests.
