LVCC D1 - Durham v Sussex

[Icarebecauseyoudo]

Hope we wrap this up tomorrow.

Weather for Friday looks like a write off.

And after that the weather can get as bad as it likes, provided it's consistent over the country

Jennings is really struggling..

 

[Steak Pie]

We might be bowling by tea....

 

[tynevalleyblackcat]

2 down and we are effectively 165 for 2.

A this rate its highly unlikely we need to worry about the weather on Friday.[DOUBLEPOST=1378299286][/DOUBLEPOST]Borthwick gone now. 54-3.

 

[willo]

Dum dum dum another one bites the dust.

54/3 lead of 187

We are going to be bowling again today at this rate.

We are going to be bowling again today at this rate.

Yes that's the consensus here. All over by tea tomorrow.

 

[Mackem DJ]

Need Rico to get a decent knock here or we could be getting jittery.

Jennings is really struggling..

He is like.

I reckon 250 will be too many for Sussex.

 

[Steak Pie]

We are going to be bowling again today at this rate.

All out with a lead of 300 with an hour left tonight, perfect.

 

[tynevalleyblackcat]

Lead is already 216. At current rate we could get to a 350 lead tonight. I would rather bat on if we still have wickets and take our chances with the weather, later in the game.

 

[Steak Pie]

4 down.

 

[tynevalleyblackcat]

Smith gone now. 84-4. Lead is 217.

 

[Aidan11]

We might as well give it the long handle from here.

 

[tynevalleyblackcat]

90-5

 

[Aleem Dar]

6 wickets left, average partnership of say 20/30 gives us an additional 120/150 runs. Plenty.

 

[Aidan11]

Wonder if the pitch inspectors will pay a visit. 12 wickets down already today.

Shouldn't get penalised. It's down to good bowling attacks.

 

[3.142]

Probably have enough already. Highest score of the match in 4th innings almost never happens. Another 80-100 would make it safe surely.

 

[tynevalleyblackcat]

We are past their first innings score with 5 down, which puts things into perspective. I would still want 350 to feel comfortable, so another 100 needed minimum for me.

 

[TwasOnTheFifthOfMay]

All out with a lead of 300 with an hour left tonight, perfect.

Wouldn't a lead of 350 be even better?
