LVCC Yorkshire v Durham

[tynevalleyblackcat]

Ours to loose from here

I agree. They are not scoring quickly, which gives us more time get the last 3.

 

[TwasOnTheFifthOfMay]

Turns out it was an expertly prepared pitch designed to produce a thrilling finish late on the 4th day.

 

[tynevalleyblackcat]

Could do with a wicket. Howay Durham.

Liam bloody Plunkett

 

[TwasOnTheFifthOfMay]

How many overs did they get yesterday, 65 or somewhere close? So that would be still 40+ overs available. Another 50-odd off 15 more overs would leave us close to 6 an over to get. Any more might be slightly tricky, but looks like it could be a tremendous finish clashing with the Palace game.

 

[tynevalleyblackcat]

8 down.

 

[Marko]

Why could Plunkett not bat for us like this?

 

[Steak Pie]

He often did this for us.....

So. 115/8 - 55 overs bowled today.

41 overs left, lose two for change of innings. We have time.

 

[tynevalleyblackcat]

Plunkett gone. 9 down. Come on lads nearly there.

If we get the 9th in the next 15 minutes tea will take care of the change of innings and we get the 2 overs back. So did they start the day at 66 overs?

Come to think of it, on the final day when do they take tea?

 

[tynevalleyblackcat]

As long as they are not scoring we can take up to 45 mins to get this last one I reckon. The sooner the better though.

 

[TwasOnTheFifthOfMay]

When normal service is resumed they are just as likely to be all out in the 400-430 region, leaving us with a simple task

 

[Marko]

Can we claim a delayed tea now if necssary?

65 overs overnight, you get 96 in a a day in the CC.

Tea at 3.40pm.

 

[tynevalleyblackcat]

Yes. All out. 38 overs Marty reckons to get 121.

This is our game now surely unless it rains.

 

[Steak Pie]

Thats it, 121 to win.

 

[Marko]

Open with Mustard? Don't know if I can handle Jennings buggering around with the limited overs.

 

[Steak Pie]

Yes. All out. 38 overs Marty reckons to get 121.

This is our game now surely unless it rains.

37 I make it, assuming they take tea now and we don't lose 2. Either way, it should be ours.

 

[TwasOnTheFifthOfMay]

Can we claim a delayed tea now if necssary?

You don't have to. If 9 wickets are down tea is delayed. However since they are all out less than 10 minutes before scheduled tea, it is taken straight away and you don't lose any overs.

They had 59 overs today leaving us 37 to score 121 lovely runs.

Happy days.
