Par is probs about 150. We should be there or thereabouts. We'll still have to bowl well but it won't be a below par score we have to defend.

I think 150 is 10-15 runs short of par personally.

Nice cameo this from Albert.

I think 150 is 10-15 runs short of par personally.

Used pitch, long boundaries. I think 150 is around par, maybe 155.

We'll see in the second innings I guess.

Essex bowled & fielded well, which saved them at least 10 runs. We’ll have to be well on it to hold them.

My gut feeling is that we're 10, maybe even 15, light. But we'll see. Having five bowlers rather than six doesn't help.

The ball did move early on, and the wicket didn't seem totally straight forward to bat on. But I've seen bigger boundaries at the Bowl than tonight.

Flipping freezing here tonight. Flaming June!

Stumps. Demolished.

 

[tomw24]

What a sitter. Shocking drop.

 

[tomw24]

Nice tight PP.

 

[tomw24]

Yes!

 

[tomw24]

Come on Mason, get back into some form.

 

[tomw24]

Boom!

 

[tomw24]

That's a lot more like it from Mason.

 

[tomw24]

Another one goes.

4-21 for Fuller now.

 

[Saints_Alive]

Fuller's da man, he's in my fantasy team too.

 

[tomw24]

I don't want to say I told you so BUT......... I did say 150 was a good score.

Well bowled lads, great win.
