H 334 AO

 

Rossington's promotion up the order worked out well!

 

E 112 -3 Lunch lead by 225

 

E 153 - 6 Dec. 267 to get

 

Essex should have declared earlier really. Not a particularly realistic target for us to chase. I hope we don't even attempt to chase it TBH.

 

H 32 - 4 the writing is on the wall, Harmer harming. (A classic "Tom"comment!)

 

Essex will be getting more and more desperate to see the back of Vince. He's the one person they do not want batting with the lower order with say, 70 or so runs needed.

 

I still expect Essex to win. But at least these two are putting up some resistance/hope.

 

Target now into double figures with 17 overs to go. This is getting very interesting....

 

If we had Fuller rather than Organ (please can this be Organ's last game for us, by the way), I would back us to win from here. But without him, I'm still not yet convinced.

Obviously also depends on the light and any rain.

 

Whatever happens from here it's been sensational from these two.

 

Warks haven't exactly started quickly in their run chase

 

Great stuff, Daws

 

Somerset and Kent drew. Plenty of bonus points for Somerset, not that it matters.

 

I can't decide if I'm impressed or in disagreement that Essex are still trying to attack here with close catchers.

 

Well batted Daws.

 

Yes!

 

Boom!

Cracking run chase

(And a very small bit of revenge for the DL luck that Essex had in the t20 SF.)

 

We won

 

Strikes again
