Did our best to try and lose that but got over the line nonetheless.

 

[Southminster Shrimper]

Spirit of cricket lol how they letting bowler take out batsmen like that, glad he was hurt

Stupid from Lawrence tho, he should of played safe and seen it home

Commentary so one sided aswell

That guy who came off injured came across as a bit of a tw*t

Gutted that finals day is next weekend. I'm away on a family (hers) bun fight and not one of them likes sports so no coverage for me

Bloody Essex, it's as if there is not enough stress with the Blues! Thought It was going to be wrapped up by 10pm CET as I had to get up for work at 3h30 in the morning. It finished nearer 11pm and the state I was in didn't help me get to sleep quickly

I've secured my ticket for finals day, 1st time I've ever been. Should be a good day

Yep and with Surrey looking like they are going to drop points with a draw. This looks like a good opportunity to close the gap, fingers crossed for the weather

 

[WestStandBlue]

Need some wickets, hopefully they come soon with Lancashire batting aggressively

 

[cerbera45]

Lancashire have made a strong start in reply.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Lancs now 4 down, ours to win

Notts set a daunting 297 runs to win

 

[Shrimpergonzo]

Lancs now 4 down, ours to win

5 down now - another one for Critchley who's bowling much better than Harmer

 

[cerbera45]

1 wicket still to fall

 

[The Big Dady]

Ruddy Lancashire/Blackpool stream

Started watching this on YouTube to .take my mind off events elsewhere only for the picture to freeze. Back on now and its nearly as nerve wracking as waiting for news from the NL.

 

[cerbera45]

A great win

 

[WestStandBlue]

Get in

 

[The Big Dady]

Essex win by 46 runs with only 11 balls left

Pretty grim? Our first typhoon of the season is forecast to hit Sunday evening. We’ve had a quiet last couple of years which doesn’t bode well for this one. HK actually copes exceptionally well with them but nature is never to be underestimated.
