[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Lead by 73 runs. (King Kong Ding Dong 105-10)
Stevenson 3-1-5-0
Raziuddin* 88 (121 balls)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mrs BB struggling for a break-through

End of Over 32 (Maiden). Exeter Bulldogs: 131-0, runrate=4.09
Trail by 234 runs. (DIBS DIPPERS 365-1 dec)
Bowler 7-2-27-0
Lockwood* 67 (96 balls)

[The General]

The 200 mark is up for the General Stars. Lamb went for 40 and Bayliss for 106. Phillips and Stanton at the crease and with 14 overs left, im hoping to get to about 250 by the end of the day. Bat up until lunch tomorrow (maybe a bit before) and declare at 365. Then bring Jackman/Guy combo on and bobs ya uncle!

:)

 

[blues_r_best]

End of Over 101 (2 runs). Southend United: 310-10, runrate=3.07
Stansfield 21-4-73-3
Savage* 7 (18 balls)

 

[Grayson]

End of Over 101 (11 runs). Southend: 559-2, runrate=5.53
Love 11-0-84-0
Granville* 206 (204 balls)
Hudson 276 (279 balls)
Last Wicket: Garcia Run Out 66 (FOW: 169/2)

Declared now. It's likely that, if I make them follow on, we will bowl them out twice tomorrow. Would prefer to bat again and take it to 3 days, but it means Hudson will have to bat again when I'd rather he didn't.

 

[MrB]

I'm sure I took my declaration target out! Oh well, looks like i'm going to miss out on 2 days of gate receipts.

End of Over 14 (Maiden). Koseys Army: 11-6, runrate=0.79 (1st Inn: 29-10)
Trail by 325 runs. (ShrimperZone CC 365-0 dec)

How do you spell doughnut?!

:thump:

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

Have probably done myself out of a day's gate receipts as I've enforced the follow on.

On the positive, my bowlers will get a day of rest.

I've struck with the first ball of the new innings, dislodging their best batsman!

 

[The General]

MrB is 1 wicket away from a memorable win!

:D

 

[The General]

End of Over 68 (6 runs). General Stars: 254-3, runrate=3.74
Lead by 118 runs. (One Team....One... 136-10)
Isaac 16-0-72-1
Stanton* 41 (58 balls)
Philip 14 (23 balls)

Last Wicket: Phillips c. Wright b. Isaac 45 (FOW: 220/3)


Happy with that. 110 runs tomorrow, hopefully reache before lunch and then 70 odd overs to bowl the oppo out!

Kev

:)

 

[The General]

MrB manages just to get 9 wickets! Will be interesting to see how many turn up tomorrow for his game!

Make your least important batsmen bowl all day.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

End of Over 56 (3 runs). BATTY SHRIMPERS: 210-2, runrate=3.75
Lead by 105 runs. (King Kong Ding Dong 105-10)
Hodge 10-0-51-1
Blake* 1 (1 balls)
Law 17 (30 balls)

Last Wicket: Ricketts c. Rendall b. Hodge 83 (FOW: 209/2)

Lost Fat-boy to the last but one ball of the day, but can't complain really. Declaration is set at 450, hopefully Brucie and Keith won't have to bat too much before trying to bowl them out again.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mrs BB snuck a wicket with the last ball of the day, and she should have better bowling conditions tomorrow. In hindsight she should probably have batted on a bit, but she though that her oppo's lack of PFL would make it fairly comfortable

End of Over 47 (3 runs). Exeter Bulldogs: 161-1, runrate=3.43
Trail by 204 runs. (DIBS DIPPERS 365-1 dec)
York 7-2-18-1
Lockwood* 81 (150 balls)
Delap 0 (0 balls)

Last Wicket: Butler lbw b. York 75 (FOW: 161/1)

 

[MrB]

Hurrah to their number 11 for batting out 15 balls to get us another days gate receipts!

 

[loz]

360-5 at the close, slow going but patient centuries from Horsey and Gobby, got the 5 batting points under the belt too. as this team thumped me last week, i'm looking to secure the draw before i do much else.

 

[MrB]

All over here, took 14 balls before Suthers removed the last man.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Lost Blakey early on which is a bit of a pain, as it means Brucie is going to have to bat most of the day if I want to get max bonus points

End of Over 60 (Maiden). BATTY SHRIMPERS: 213-3, runrate=3.55
Lead by 108 runs. (King Kong Ding Dong 105-10)
Ferguson 14-4-51-1
Law* 19 (41 balls)
Schoeman 0 (3 balls)

Last Wicket: Blake c. Stringfellow b. Ferguson 1 (FOW: 213/3)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

3 Wickets for Mrs BB this morning, means she's well on top in her game

End of Over 52 (Maiden). Exeter Bulldogs: 169-4, runrate=3.25

[loz]

bad news: early morning collapse- lost the last 5 wickets for 13 runs...

good news: that keeps the bowlers fresh, and J-Mac strikes in the 3rd over.

Slow going this morning (35 runs in 15 overs), as we try to build a winning position

End of Over 71 (10 runs). BATTY SHRIMPERS: 245-3, runrate=3.45
Lead by 140 runs. (King Kong Ding Dong 105-10)

Last Wicket: Blake c. Stringfellow b. Ferguson 1 (FOW: 213/3)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Fantastic performance from Mrs BB's bowlers this morning, although I'm not sure if she has has made them follow-on, could be costly PFL wise if she hasn't.

Trail by 180 runs. (DIBS DIPPERS 365-1 dec)

[blues_r_best]

Picked up a couple this morning to go along with the one last night, but their two best batters are at the crease with another decent one still to come.
