[The General]

Got them all out for 230 and following on they closed on 82-2 so as im sitting 5th and them 4th, im rather hoping for a win!

 

[MrB]

They finished 97-2 following on, 93 behind. Should wrap this up tomorrow.

Pretty much a straight fight for promotion between us and Monkey Sloggers (who we play in the 9th match). Not sure I want to go up to the Championship just yet though!!

 

[Grayson]

If you can get up there, do it, you may never get another chance. It's good there anyway, hard but a challenge.

[MrB]

Benji nicks one out just before lunch to ease the worries a touch. Will start to worry if they make it through the next session though. Another 100 runs on the total in 35 overs and the last session could start getting interesting.
