Essex CCC 2018

For those that are off, or even working but have sky go etc,.... Essex V Yorkshire (Royal London One Day Cup) is on Sky sports tomorrow from 2pm. :thumbsup:
 
Great start.

Come on you Eagles!

I'm not sure... Currently are Essex 35-2 (Cookie gone for 11 runs)

Chasing down 260 won't be a walk in the park. Especially in the fading light of day. Too many dot balls for my liking.

To make my night even worse....

Kent thrashed Nott's to make the semi finals. :sad:

It was a great start at 2:13pm when I posted that - we had them 2 down inside 2 overs! Unfortunately they recovered from 45-4 to post 259.

Accomodating Cook has messed with our order and it means we're not getting as fluent a start when Wheater was opening with Chopra. Hopefully our middle order will see us home though.
 
Probably missed Tendo and certainly miss an explosive top three batsman in One Day Cricket.

It was a used wicket and the ball was sticking in the surface, hence why Patterson was the most successful bowler with his medium pace stuff, so 250 odd was probably about par.

It was disappointing to let them get so many after having them 4 down for not much. We needed to go for the jugular then.

As I said earlier, I don't see this as a great one-day side and I think our strength is in 4 day cricket (where we are currently CHAMPIONS). Hopefully we can regroup and rebound there.

Maybe 10th time lucky in the T20.
 
Yep, given their precarious position and lack of key players, they were certainly there for the taking so 259 was more than they should have got.

Kent chased a similar score against Notts, but blazed away from ball one and knocked them off in 35 overs.

As several of the commentators said on air, we just stuttered along in our run chase.
 
That was handy getting Ross Taylor out right at the end today.

Also, hats off to 22 year old Ed Barnard of Worcestershire, who dismissed four top order Lancashire batsmen all for 0 in 2 overs this evening!

:omg::omg:
 
Sad for Hameed- looked such a good prospect but his average this season would embarrass Phil Tufnell....
 
Yep, he really is struggling.

Spent a few games in Lancashire 2nd XI this season and has lost his opening spot for them.
 
380 all out. 4 for Harmer.

Meanwhile, Ed Barnard got another fella out for 0 this morning in his second over, so over 4 overs he took 5 wickets dismissing all 5 batsmen for 0! :cool:
