I wss going to come down for the first day of this game at Blackpool.

Glad I didn't....they've only managed 4.1 overs.

They should have played it in my corner of the Lake District, it's only just started drizzling now.

Didn't rain here until the afternoon and then not too much. Rare we get less rain than Blackpool.

Lashing down all afternoon on Scillies. First rain in months. Pity the poor sods on holiday mooching around in waterproofs

Fog and heavy rain on the Isle of Man.

Full morning's play today.
Essex 100-4 at lunch, but they were 55-4.

Leisure · Post by **Leisure** » Tue Jul 11, 2023 3:26 pm

210 for 4. 155 unbeaten partnership.

Off to Blackpool tomorrow for this…. Hope to see some play.

ClaretTony · Post by **ClaretTony** » Tue Jul 11, 2023 4:52 pm

261/5 - Westley and Walter put on 155 for the 6th wicket which went down just after Leisure updated us at 210.

lakedistrictclaret · Post by **lakedistrictclaret** » Tue Jul 11, 2023 5:48 pm

Essex went from 275-5 to 282 all out.

Six wickets for Tom Bailey.

I’ll give it until day 2 of the 4th test until someone suggests he should be brought into the England squad.

In place of Bairstow

Taken from the BBC this morning , i have a feeling Yorkshire have enough runs on the board .

"Bean keen to keep 'racking' up the runs
Worcestershire 46-2 v Yorkshire 3407 (play starts at 11:00)"

ecc · Post by **ecc** » Wed Jul 12, 2023 10:54 am

That's without Root, Brook and Bairstow too.

Only another 3,212 to avoid the follow on!

Lancashire have collapsed before lunch from being 70.1 to 116.8 .

De Grandhomme is one of the more disappointing overseas players I can recall for us

claretonthecoast1882 · Post by **claretonthecoast1882** » Wed Jul 12, 2023 3:21 pm

Lancs all out 145

Essex 3/2 leading by 140

Bordeauxclaret · Post by **Bordeauxclaret** » Wed Jul 12, 2023 3:39 pm

Three ducks for the openers who faced the first ball in each innings.

Should be a decent day tomorrow with the weather looking much better. Might try and get over.

Lancs are 50/0 chasing 430 after 14 overs

claretonthecoast1882 · Post by **claretonthecoast1882** » Thu Jul 13, 2023 12:44 pm

116/1 from 27 overs

ClaretTony · Post by **ClaretTony** » Thu Jul 13, 2023 1:23 pm

Currently 140/1

Leisure · Post by **Leisure** » Thu Jul 13, 2023 1:32 pm

290 still required in 64 overs.

I would guess it might be unlikely that we go for them, rather ensure we try to make sure we don't lose the game.

claretonthecoast1882 · Post by **claretonthecoast1882** » Thu Jul 13, 2023 1:35 pm

I have been keeping an eye on the score and undecided if we are going for it or not

ClaretTony · Post by **ClaretTony** » Thu Jul 13, 2023 1:36 pm

We are going at just below the required rate but it's a massive ask to get 430 in the fourth innings of a game

Leisure · Post by **Leisure** » Thu Jul 13, 2023 1:38 pm

Luke Wells has scored 10 4's and 2 6's in his 69no, so looks like he could be going for it.

If we can at 36 an over for the next 4 or 5 overs it could be on

But way below the strike rate required, it's Bohannon that's pushed it up.

155/2 Wells gone

claretonthecoast1882 · Post by **claretonthecoast1882** » Thu Jul 13, 2023 1:51 pm

155/3 Vilas gone... time to bat out the day

ClaretTony · Post by **ClaretTony** » Thu Jul 13, 2023 1:55 pm

I think it was time to bat out the day right from the start - definitely is now

Bordeauxclaret · Post by **Bordeauxclaret** » Thu Jul 13, 2023 2:27 pm

I’m glad to see they’ve been trying to chase them.

Shows a far better attitude than earlier in the season.

ClaretTony · Post by **ClaretTony** » Thu Jul 13, 2023 2:32 pm

Bohannon out at 194, now 206/4.

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Thu Jul 13, 2023 2:56 pm

Just noticed that Critchley who didn’t bowl in first innings got 2 wickets so far inc Vilas for 0.
How many points do we get for a draw compared to a loss ?

If we lose we'll get three points, if we draw we"ll get eight ( three bowling points and five for the draw ).
I've ruled out the possibility of winning, but if we did we'd get nineteen.

claretonthecoast1882 · Post by **claretonthecoast1882** » Thu Jul 13, 2023 3:03 pm

186 needed from 41 overs with 6 wickets left

It's the hope that kills ya

172 needed. Go for it. Lose 5 points or gain 16. Worth the risk and still got the chance to play for a draw later

156 to win with 6 wickets in hand at tea. Tough but doable at 5 an over

onewillieirvine · Post by **onewillieirvine** » Thu Jul 13, 2023 3:46 pm

Second new ball may prove a problem but all to play for.

Leisure · Post by **Leisure** » Thu Jul 13, 2023 3:51 pm

What determines if it's a min of 32 overs left or more?

ClaretTony · Post by **ClaretTony** » Thu Jul 13, 2023 4:21 pm

Now want 136 from 27.3 overs but have lost two more wickets so now 6 down. Both Salt & de Grandhomme gone.

There are a required number of overs to be bowled in a day which is the minimum.

ClaretTony · Post by **ClaretTony** » Thu Jul 13, 2023 5:00 pm

97 needed from 16.4 overs - still 6 down

lakedistrictclaret · Post by **lakedistrictclaret** » Thu Jul 13, 2023 5:04 pm

While Rob Jones is still there, we've a chance.
