We've got our 2nd batting bonus point of the season :clap:

Pace has picked up a bit now, could do with another 100 from these two.

Not the best opening session we've had. PC+H tomorrow too so defeat looking likely from here.

[MrB]

Decent session, lost Sini and Lamo but rather have the runs spread round the team than have one player scoring massively. Macca currently up against his namesake.

The players are off the field for lunch.

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Managed to eke out a lead of exactly 100, and Brucie's taken 2 wickets in his 1st over. Can he bowl us to victory on his last appearance for the club....

Only 1 batting point which was very dissapointing after being in such a promising position.

Last recgonised batsmen at the crease, hopefully we can squeeze out one more batting point.

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Nicked one out in the last over before tea. I think they collapsed 1st inngs once they were 5 down, so a small chance of finishing this today if we can take a couple straight after tea.

[MrB]

Didn't make any more batting points and they're off again. Got draw written all over it unless they really motor or we pick up quick wickets.

[SUFC_Al]

We rack up another innings victory over Elvyn Moor to stay top. Bob Birkett ending on 161* and a first 50 for us by latest signing Creasey.

It took 38.3 overs to bowl them out for 44. Williams getting match figures of 9-21; Shashidhar 6-32.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Looks like it's going into day 3 now, but we should win.

BATTY SHRIMPERS v Team Tadley C.C.

Martin 35 (68 balls)

Last Wicket: Pitt c. Schoeman b. Singh 85 (FOW: 140/4)

edit - maybe not, as we're now into the tail.

39.6 W Singh to Martin
Singh has crashed this one in short and Martin has gone back to pull but the ball has stayed unbelievably low and trapped Martin plumb. Amazed, Martin has started walking the wrong way towards the pavilion. A sniggering Evelyn points out his mistake.

 

[loz]

won by an innings +178.

 

[The General]

They closed on 241-3 so they are 380 ahead which im sure will be more than enough. We lasted 80 overs in the first innings, so a loss is looming, although i've done well to take it this far IMO and after todays' £66,000, another £60,000 will be much appreciated.

Kev

 

[MrB]

Picked up 3 (including the first innings centurion) to leave them 117 ahead with 7 wickets remaining. Shouldn't lose from here but if we can pick up a couple early tomorrow we could have a chance of forcing a win.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Oppo ended the day 92 in front with 3 wickets left. Annoyingly, their No. 9 has held on for 52 balls. Bowling conditions today, so don't want to be chasing much more than 130.

 

[MrB]

Mario steps up to the plate, set him to very attacking and a long opening spell and he's taken out the two overnight bats to put us on the cusp of a win.
