77-9 in the second innings and they get a second days takings. Amazing how your crap tail enders like to linger in that situation!
 
Outclassed for this one and resting all key players for so my only concern was getting to 3 days. Sadly unlikely and even more sad because receipts of just under 60K were an FC record by miles. For the record out for 93 in a fantastic 50 overs and they are 4 down but just shy of 360. Assuming they declare quickly the chances of me batting through the day are slim but will set a few defensive anyway.

4th place unaffected by this or the return fixture unless 5th placed opps have made any boobs.
 
End of Over 10 (1 runs). Six Stars: 20-0, runrate=2.00 (1st Inn: 34-10)
Trail by 396 runs. (BATTY SHRIMPERS 450-0 dec)
Prasad 5-0-12-0
Bevan* 6 (29 balls)
Mcgowan 12 (32 balls)

Middleton won't bowl in the rest of the match, the 2 spinners plus Petty and Prasad should be able to roll them over.

Mrs BB just playing for gate receipts now, not sure this one will make Day 3 unless her oppo hasn't set a declaration.
 
And oddly enough, my opposition are still batting!!

End of Over 118 (2 runs). The Cricket Nufties: 614-2, runrate=5.20
Thompson 31-3-130-1
Durkin* 312 (330 balls)
Prior 24 (54 balls)

Last Wicket: Osborn b. Thompson 45 (FOW: 555/2)
 
no wickets fell this monring, but i wanted to get a few more runs to get Green his first century..
There are only 6 points between us in the league, and we are fighting over 4th spot. It looks like it will probably go for a draw looking @ there attack, so will need to take more wickets than them

The players are off the field for the change of innings.

The General said:
BB - just saw your message from yesterday. Me & Em should be heading over Thursday, but no idea yet what time.

Kev
Ok, well if you fancy a beer beforehand, I can pick you up at the station.
