Essex CCC 2018

[Shrimpers are Magic]

Going to be a awkward chase whatever happens.

 

[Shrimpers are Magic]

Shame to read about James Foster leaving with bad taste in mouth but tough decisions need to be made in professional sport I guess.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

541 ao, last 4 went for 9 runs, Coles picked up 5 wickets.

Target is 132

 

[mattitouk]

13-1



Vijay gone for just 2 runs, way off his 80 in the first innings.

Edit : 47-4 now after 12 overs, Browne gone for 12, Lawrence gone for 10 and Bopara gone for a duck.

Getting slightly worried now.

 

[Shrimpers are Magic]

Ravi has been dealt an absolute shocker - nowhere near hitting that.

 

[Southminster Shrimper]

O dear!

 

[mattitouk]

I believe Browne was unlucky also when it was reviewed back.

 

[mattitouk]

Oh bother, Westley gone for 20 ....55-5

I think it will be all down hill from here.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

80-5, RtD 26*, Wheater 2*

 

[tottenham541]

Essex 80-5 think I’m gonna be sick.

 

[mattitouk]

Great over from Essex, 17 runs from it.

97-5 and only 35 needed now,

Come on Essex

 

[mattitouk]

Balls i spoke to soon, now 97-7

 

[Cricko]

Keep the faith.... Come on Tendo.

 

[mattitouk]

Please dont let us be on the wrong end of a world record. Apparently no one has overturned a first innings deficit of 410 and gone on to win.

22 more runs to win.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

109-7, 23 to win....

 

[The Big Dady]

Come on ESSEX

 

[mattitouk]

111-8

I can barely watch this!!

 

[The Big Dady]

111 for 8 further 21 needed, come on ESSEX you can do it!

Plenty of overs and time left to get 21 runs

 

[Southminster Shrimper]

Oh god, a run out.

 

[tottenham541]

124-9 oh my god.
