FC - week 14

End the day with a 164 run lead with 9 wickets in hand. Seeing as we got them all out 247, and tomorrow is a bowler friendly day on a green pitch, I'm going to set them 260 to win. I need to put in the actual 2nd innings score in the declaration box, don't I? So 140, not 260? Can never remember.

Confident of winning this, but don't need to. Could also save PFL and just give them an easy victory, but that'd be unfair on 2nd place who will not go up if I throw the game.
 
Yes, put the 2nd innings score you want to get.

Bad day for us, added quite a few runs to get to 290 but they've racked up 240-4 or thereabouts so are in the lead. Need to topple those last few as don't want a three figure target to go for on day 3. 2nd place will get a max points lead so it's win or bust.

I'll be airborne for the main chunk of it so I'll wait to see what happens when I get back to Blighty.
 
Just 3 more wickets to take - god forbid I get the worlds toughest V next season and relegate again
 
took the game in to a third day which didn't look too likely after being bowled out for 33 on day one. Big innings defeat looming though.

Took my game into a 3rd day, but have been bowled out already. Nice 86k gate receipts though.

55.2 W Moore to Coutts
Moore's pitched one right up in the blockhole and it's struck Coutts on the boot! There's a sustained appeal from the bowler and finally the umpire raises his finger! Moore's got his man! OUT!
 
MrB has 3 hours to bat out!

I won, a pretty good (albeit meaningless) win.

GBG 254 & 353/5d
Thommo's Trojans 232 & 63.

Particularly pleased to have bowled them out in just 31 overs, considering we play them again tomorrow in the one-day league!

Draw makes no odds, I needed a win to get promoted. Maybe that message has got to Richie who's suddenly decided to smash out.
