Essex CCC 2019

[Ricky Otto]

I wouldn't be able to accept any winnings in good conscience if I was betting against my team.

2/1 now! things changing rapidly! Interestingly Draw is favourite again but there is nothing between all 3 results now

 

[Blueronron]

Surely with rain forecast draw is the option

Tell your wife/Husband to place the bet and then demand the winnings if it come off

Note PC correct with wife/husband

50 not out for last wicket - Porter not given clear LBW.
Weather hasn’t come and next two days look okay.
Will have to bat very well but if they want the title they’ll have to fight for it.

The satellite picture on BBC shows a big load of rain arriving at 4ish. Need to try and hang on for an hour

Big last wicket stand and a batting point. We need to be steady now, no heroics needed.

Rain is here, the day is done. Happy that we got through without loss.

Just looked at BBC weather and if its forecast is correct only be a few hours play tomorrow and none on Thursday so let's hope it is correct

It was wrong today

It was wrong today

That is true! Just hope it is right for a change.I think there may be more play over next couple days than weather forecast indicates but I think there will be a reduction in overs so fingers crossed we can get the job done.Loved my times at Chelmsford this season

I must be looking in wrong place. Bit of light rain around tomorrow but Thursday should be a full days play.
Plenty of overs to go yet.
