All these wides, and a lack of spin, has got to be putting Surrey under pressure to meet the cut off. Stubbs vs only four men out could be fun.
 
That was perfect from Joe. You don't really want him batting in the first six, or the last two, but anywhere in those middle 12 overs is his time.
 
The seven (legitimate) balls with the extra man up went 4464w216

We hadn't scored a boundary for a few balls before that. The importance of the cut off time.
 
Still chaseable, not completely out of sight, particularly if one of the bowlers has a poor day and we still have to bowl them all 4 overs. However, we should certainly be favourites and I'd be very disappointed if we did lose this now.
 
I have no idea if that's a winnable score btw. That might be 20 too many or 20 too few.

On the one hand, it felt like we got away with quite a lot early on, and have been helped by a load of wides. On the other hand, it doesn't feel like we had to go berserk to get those 215 runs or got the full benefit of Stubbs.
