With our bowling "attack" I'd want about 600 before I'd start to think of declaring. I'd probably bat on until tea, come out and have a 20:20 style slog and then look to take 2 wickets before close.

Oh. In that case, Irani for 200 and RNtD for 150 at least then.

Ahh... the photo and caption on the front page of Cricinfo perhaps explains things...

That 218 was a career-best for Sir Ronald. Cap is well and truly doffed...

111/0. LOL. Chelmsford is truly living up to its featherbed status.
Can't we get Danish at one end, Philips at the other, and just bore people out?

First XI
Yes, quite. Although it might make for a few interesting run chases in the one-dayers.

141/1 at stumps. Draw #2 is on its way...

Just hope that Andre Nel is too.:(
I heard something about Nel breaking his finger. Anyone know any more?
Matthew Elliott run out for 95. The nightwatchman, Huw Waters, a young very promising fast bowler is 2* off 34 balls, but Glamorgan appear to have sent in their keeper in at no.4. I don't think Wallace normally bats that high for them, I wonder if he has been sent in to increase the run-rate?

H T Waters not out 5 64
M A Wallace not out 9 40
Erm. No.
M A Wallace not out 9 40
Erm. No.
Wallace's cameo comes to an end. 13 off 44 balls after dominating a 3rd wicket stand of 17 in about 20 overs.
I think Ronnie Irani's previous highest score came against Glamorgan when he batted 9 hours for a big hundred in a drawn game at Sophia Gardens. That innings really p*ssed off Glamorgan.
Actually Essex have had a fair bit of needle with Glamorgan, I seem to remember Ilott and Croft clashing in a quarter or semi-final.
I wonder if Waters 9* off 81 balls is revenge?

Waters narrowly missed out on a century before lunch by a mere 88 runs.
Glamorgan 194-3 at lunch. Waters 12* Powell 17*
