CC :: Essex v Durham


2 games in a row we have blown a great position
80 for 3 to 91 for 7. 3 wickets yesterday for next to 0 runs hasn't helped

Why didnt Borthwick just have a word with Burnham when he was trying to take Burnham on? It could have made all the difference.
 
Rather sad how you were waiting to post that.

I wasn’t, I’ve been busy this morning, but checked the score and remembered how I called it at the time.

Jack Burnham wasn’t the reason we lost this. When you get skittled for 120 you can hardly blame the bloke who top scored......

Just let them get away too much at the end of the third innings. Not gonna be too harsh on them as we’ve come on miles since last season and really dominated two games for 3 days each. Promising signs moving forward and especially for division 2 next season

Exactly. And people can’t praise him for his positivity yesterday then criticise him when playing a shot with (educated) risk. It just didn’t come off that time.
 
Harmer was the difference between the sides. He's the main reason Essex have been champions in recent years. He’s only done to us what he has done to many other Counties. Our lads did well to give them such a good game. Shame they couldn’t quite pull it off.
