LVCC Durham v Notts

[essex boy]

excellent from Smith. couldnt have asked or expected more

 

[Aidan11]

Great knock from Smithy.

Woody is no mug with the bat either - has a high score of 48.

 

[Steak Pie]

Great stuff. Two full sessions worth of dot balls in Smith's innings.

 

[essex boy]

need to try and bat for an hour or so after lunch if we can and eek out a 70 run lead. Notts would need to bat very well for almost 3 sessions to give themselves about 50 overs to bowl us out.

26 runs in an hour? I suppose that's the current rate

Flying here, got a run from 3rd ball after lunch

Your 70 lead is up with 40 minutes to spare...

Nice to see some boundaries but no reason to blast these wickets away

Fowerundred up

 

[Old Timer]

400 up! So do you bat on the get a lead of 100+ or put them in now?

Breese gone. Sounds a shite decision

Why on earth would they declare?

Get them in and give as much time as possible to bowl them out and then time for us to bat again thats the theory that some teams give. for me I would throw the bat and get as many as quicly as you can after you get the 100 lead.

What you dont want is to just eat up time if you are not scoring.

Mind with nine down now it make no difference now

Far better to score the max we can and make them nervous about the deficit imo

Thats why I said after you get to a lead of 100 as I think that number plays on players minds

 

[Aidan11]

87 lead.

This is good. Woody even hoiked Patel for 6.

 

[Old Timer]

Just looked at the card again, If Onions gets to double figure that means every body has. When's the last time ythat happened?

I know!!!!

 

[Icarebecauseyoudo]

I know!!!!

Hopefully I unjinxed it

100 lead, whoop whoop

 

[Aidan11]

100 lead.

 

[Icarebecauseyoudo]

GO and Rushy getting aroused here i reckon

 

[Aidan11]

Everyone in double figures (treble for Smudge)

 

[rentaghost]

We could do with 100 lead at least but I think that might be out of reach.

Could be tricky batting last.

When this was posted yesterday I almost sarcastically replied '150 would be better'

 

[BatEleven]

Onions and Wood giving Swann and Broad a bit of a hammering

In fact, Broads been taken out of the attack now! 50 partnership.

50 for Wood now! Superb stuff this.
