LVCC - Northants v Durham

[brandon]

her voice is annoying and smug, her knowledge is bang average and her craic is terrible. she is as dreary as owt like.

35 runs needed to avoid the follow on, we can do this!

It couldn't could it?!!! Mind these bat deep, wicket keeper at 9. Plus I'd imagine we'd want to bowl last on this.

 

[Aidan11]

We wont ask them to follow on IMO even if we do have the chance to do so. Too risky on this surface.

 

[brandon]

We're still conceding runs at quite a rate, which leads me to think that forcing the pace in setting a target could be within our grasp.

Of course we've got to get their last four wickets first like. I think Spriegel is set for a ton in afraid.

aye probably a big big ton, guarding the tail magnificiently.

jennings with a second ball wicket. not another all rounder!!

 

[brandon]

Jenno!!!!!!

 

[Twisted]

marty makes a good point, borthwick & jennings have come on and taken a wicket with their second ball and arshad has come on and taken two wickets in two overs.

cracking stuff.

 

[Aidan11]

Spriegel still there. He's going to hang around here.

 

[brandon]

New ball due soon. I'd give Breese a quick twirl like. What's the wicket doing now?? Has Marty mentioned any turn?

 

[Safc_Luke]

Give Gareth the ball he will dry the runs up.

10 overs for 20 type of bloke is wor Gareth

 

[mackembhoy]

Based on commentary yesterday northants will struggle this season.

Seems like a major batting pitch and there bowling is very ordinary, lot of draws seems likely at home.

Agree. Seem to have been unable to exert any pressure at all. Runs flowing easily.

 

[Aidan11]

Thought we'd have skittled them by now. This current partnership is stubborn.

 

[mackembhoy]

Arshad got spreigel for 97

Edit 9 down numbers 10 and 11 in on 0 90 odd ahead for us

colly buggered by the sounds of it though one of the end of the finger.

bollocks, last thing we need.

You'd think so unless the conditions change on the final day/tomorrow evening depending on how long we bat for.

 

[Aidan11]

They've got far more than they should have. We can still win though.

It seems like a very friendly batting track like, seeing as there's been 8 half tons and two 40s

Onions ended up NO also on a decent score

bollocks, last thing we need.

Don't think he went off so probably not too bad. He took the catch as well.

Frustrating a bit, become so used to rolling teams out! Never fear though, got for some of our lads to get runs. I wonder what is going through Colly's mind now? I suppose he knows that on our day we can skittle a team for next to nothing on the final day.
