Should have been very doable to bat out a draw in just over three sessions on that. Not over yet of course but the signs are not good. Knowing this lot they'd rather lose than draw, even in a hopeless situation ffs
He didn't last long, another bleedin' conclave coming up. The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.
yup. they are waving the white flag, we need 5 hours of rain for a draw. Think I will put the rovers game on instead
let's hope smith knows about farming the strike. 7 down now. runs are irrelevant. he needs a single off the last ball of each over and nothing else. time for boycott mode.
i'm sure he is! there are potentially another 41+ over today, so he can get all he needs with single off the last ball of each over. he's now scored over 300 runs since he was last out and is averaging around 350 for the series so far. that's twice as much as gill!
forget that. he hit two sixes and on the next ball they got him. knocks his average for the series to a pathetic 178.5.
