Middlesex CCC 2017

[TW3Bee]

161 all out

Middx lead by 35 runs

 

[Humblebee]

At least Franklin and Higgins made the score a bit more respectable.

An awful lot of wickets seem to have fallen today, not just at Lords. Hope we get at least one more before the close.

 

[GP200]

[GP200]

...........Tim strikes.........27-1.........

 

[GP200]

..............Ryan livens things up with three quick wickets...........Trott gone..........109-4..............

 

[GP200]

..............change of bowling and Tim strikes..........139-5...........

 

[Humblebee]

Warwicks 113 ahead. Need to take the last 5 wickets fairly soon.

 

[scruff puppy pup]

Not confident we'll win this.
If we're 50-3 tomorrow or 100-4 then I'd bet against us making it.

 

[TW3Bee]

We could end up losing this.

 

[GP200]

..............rain forecast for this afternoon...........

 

[GP200]

................will be chasing over 300.............

 

[scruff puppy pup]

We could end up losing this.

Actually, I think we both could be wrong as tomorrow's play is almost certainly going to be washed out. A draw now looks most likely.

 

[GP200]

...........Nathan gets his first first class wicket...........361 all out..........

 

[GP200]

.............start the innings with three batsmen...............

 

[GP200]

............smart slip catch gets Eskinazi............23-2.............

Not confident we'll win this.
If we're 50-3 tomorrow or 100-4 then I'd bet against us making it.

[martyhar]

What a mess!

 

[GP200]

.............shame that the tail produced more than the openers............not good enough...........

 

[scruff puppy pup]

Terrible result against the weakest side in the division.

 

[Broadstairs Bee]

Went today, batting awful but in defence very much weakened team, 2 away with test team, Morgan choosing not to play and three injured before the start to be joined during the game by Robson & Gubbins .

 

[GP200]

............sunshine for Lords this evening..............the play off push is back on...........

 

[Lionel Bart-At]

............sunshine for Lords this evening..............the play off push is back on...........

Do you have any players back? It says 'Mary Celeste' on the changing room door apparently. lol

 

[GP200]

..............yep.............just checked the dressing room ..............they thought it was an away game............struggling to get 11 players now..............

 

[GP200]

..............Middlesex to bat...............

 

[GP200]

...............yep..............all back in time.............

 

[Humblebee]

Never in doubt....

 

[Humblebee]

Essex going a bit too well at present; we need some wickets.

 

[GP200]

..........excellent figures for Nathan..............

 

[amersfoort bee]

The good guys scoring at over 10 runs per over after four overs.

Good possibility of a win here.

..........Eskinazi just gone..........

 

[Humblebee]

...and Simpson...

 

[GP200]

.............53 required from 6 overs.............

 

[GP200]

............not enough boundaries being scored............

 

[amersfoort bee]

Certainly going to lose this game v the weakest team in the South division.

 

[Humblebee]

Only need 26 off the last over.....

 

[scruff puppy pup]

Middlesex don't really do big 20/20 scores, not that 167 is anyway a big score.

 

[Humblebee]

161-5 tonight, but Gloucs 63-5 in reply.

 

[Humblebee]

Now 90-7. Finn takes 4 wickets so far.
