Notts faltering too now. 234-6. The pendulum has swung our way massively in the last 20 minutes.

 

[Marko]

can notts and us get through

Yes, we'd be third.

 

[chopsfc007]

hope for that then I have a bet on notts winning it

 

[brandon]

Somerset 222-8. Still no mention of Durham by Allott et al.

 

[CollingwoodFTM]

What run rate did Somerset need to pip us? They must be close?

 

[brandon]

Their twitter seemed to think it was to get the runs by 40.3 overs.

233-9

 

[chopsfc007]

why are they not mentioning us wankers

 

[Marko]

Howler from Knight? 9 deliveries? Cricinfo says 9 overs

 

[tynevalleyblackcat]

Pretty certain we are through as Somerset needed to get the runs by somewhere around the 39 over mark and they are still 28 runs short.

233-9

About right but after the D/L adjustment it will have come down to around 39 overs. Pretty certain we are through now.

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

what time is the draw?

 

[Parkside]

Howler from Knight? 9 deliveries? Cricinfo says 9 overs

I think he means they need to get them in 9deliveries to overcome our net run rate.

 

[Parkside]

what time is the draw?

Got to wait for tomorrow's games- immediately after them I assume.

 

[tynevalleyblackcat]

Just done the maths properly and they are right. Its 40 and 3 balls so they need 23 runs off the next 3 balls. We are DEFINATELY through.

 

[chopsfc007]

ha way durham and ha way notts

 

[tynevalleyblackcat]

No draw. Its 1st in A v 4th in B and so on.

That WAS the revision. Originally it was 42.2, it went down to 40.3 after the floodlight failure.

ha way durham and ha way notts

If Notts win we will be 4th. If they lose we will be 3rd.

I know I have just worked it out myself.

 

[brandon]

Fletcher's head is MASSIVE like

We're 4th.

 

[GordonMuchallNo1Fan]

so we will play the winners of group A who at present will be Yorkshire?

 

[tynevalleyblackcat]

Was listening to 5 live sports extra most of the night while at a local football match and the only time we got mentioned re qualification was when Bracegirdle said 'I think Durham will be the ones to slip out of contention'

so we will play the winners of group A who at present will be Yorkshire?

Probably what most of our supporters would have wanted, especially those planning on going to the game.

Somerset have lost anyway so the run rate calcs were not even needed.
