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

Cracking run chase

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