LVCC D1 - Somerset v Durham

[brandon]

Gotta take that when you bat 4th at Taunton.

Definitely.

I don't know why their groundsman still has a job if he's constantly preparing pitches like this. Looking at their bowling attack - if we don't score 350 at the very least in first innings we've failed miserably. Plus I genuinely believe now is the time when I'd welcome a Will Smith 100 off 300 balls!

 

[The Breen Machine]

458 all out, 3 for Buckley and 2 for Borthwick at the end.

 

[Randy Ostrich]

Must be the most entertaining 6 balls of the match!

[essex boy]

I am actually more surprised if Stoneman fails these days than gets runs

 

[johnson]

Stoneman and Borthwick getting runs almost every innings now.

 

[wayne entwhistle no9]

Important innings for Stokes today, be great if he could bat for a couple of sessions today.

100 up, seems to have finally kicked on this season. 228-3 now

 

[rentaghost]

Stoneman out for 122. Well done but a bit disappointing in that he has never really had a massive score and this was a perfect opportunity.

 

[Marko]

Rocky gone for 122 after hitting two consecutive 4's. Need Colly to put in a shift now.

 

[johnson]

122 is big enough

 

[Marko]

50 up for Stokes off 71. :-D

 

[johnson]

Seem to be in a rush our lads, just need to bat out the day.

 

[mikemanc]

Richardson playing as a specialist no 8

 

[essex boy]

could still put somerset under pressure here

 

[johnson]

Mustard gone for 30 off 34, what is the rush, still 134 behind!

We're not going to lose the game from here, why not be a bit adventurous with the run scoring...

It'll make sure we can reach 400 within the 110 overs too.

Yes we could
