Hmmm indeed.
Bowling Lancashire out for under 300 will do it, or, if they bat first, scoring 400 while losing 8 wickets or fewer at the cut-off point.I looked at the table earlier on and Middlesex are massive favourites to stay up. By my reckoning they only need 6 points to be mathematically safe so if they bowl Lancashire out and then score 300 in their first innings - all within the required overs, which is hardly mindblowingly difficult, then they should be safe. hope so as I want a trip to Lords next year!
Aye and there'll be no mention at all during 4 days transmissions that it's the teams of the England manager and a England selector that are fighting out a relegation battle.I would prefer to watch Leicester v Derbyshire personally.
Sky wankfest if the mighty Lancashire stay up
Sky wankfest over Gus Fraser is the mighty Middlesex stay up..
That's good thinking. 245/6 now off 93, so 55 from 17 overs with the luxury of a couple of 'free' wickets would do it. Then after the 110 are up they can have a thrash to boost the first innings lead.Sun is out, much better batting conditions today. Ha'way Lanky.
Lancs 220/5
Interesting decision possibly if they get to 250 without losing another wicket. They could declare then with the +3 bonus point swing they need, then just have to win the game.......
