[MrB]

Failure to clear them before lunch means we'll lose two overs for the changeover and any more overs we take to get the last one so looking at 70 overs to chase this.

The players are off the field for lunch.

Mirza 3-2-3-2
Mcmahon* 0 (1 balls)

43.1 W Mirza to Rigler
A bullet-like throw from Philip to Perry, who flicks off the bails in a flash, has left Rigler millimetres from safety. Rigler out!

 

[The Flying Scotsman]

Well I've had a right touch. Not only did I just about get maximum batting points, having taken maximum bowling points (he did not set a declaration target) in his innings, it looks like he didn't set it so that I had to follow in which means this game is heading for a draw.

Cocked this up. Fitness shot. May have to throw my game tomorrow in order to have a go on Sunday.

Great partnership between Brucie and Del-Boy has give us a chance of snatching victory.

[MrB]

Bad times.

28.4 W Mccammon to Cunningham
Charges the delivery, struck in the air but not very far, Howell takes the catch at mid wicket a few metres inside the circle.
28.3 4 Mccammon to Cunningham
That's smacked away over cover, one bounce into the crowd for four runs. A small boy wearing a red cap returns the ball to Matthews.
28.2 4 Mccammon to Cunningham
The keeper looks at first slip, first slip looks at the keeper, and Mccammon looks frustrated seeing that genuine edge go between them. That should really have been taken.
And that's his fifty! Well played.

 

[MrB]

This is going to go to the wire, all three results still possible. Sini is destructive, you wouldn't know it.....

End of Over 34 (7 runs). ShrimperZone CC: 110-2, runrate=3.24 (1st Inn: 237-10)

[SUFC_Al]

We needed to bat a long time to a. get ahead and b. given us some sort of target to defend. Two early wickets left me 67-2 with 105 overs to go but a partnership between Last 70 and Bob Birkett steadied the ship and eventually put me ahead. Birkett's innings of 163 looks to be a vital score. They needed 158 in 36 overs at just above 4 an over. They now need to up their run rate to 7 to win.

End of Over 20 (2 runs). Dale : 46-0, runrate=2.30 (1st Inn: 450-7 dec)
Trail by 112 runs. (Southchurch Village CC 280-10 & 328-10)

Poutney 24 (62 balls)

 

[MrB]

Off home now, will disappointed if I get home and find we've lost! Monumental final day innings from Lamo. Also mention for 11 wickets in the match from Mario along with 61 in the first innings.

End of Over 60 (3 runs). ShrimperZone CC: 234-3, runrate=3.90 (1st Inn: 237-10)
Trail by 3 runs. (Purple Dinosaurs 230-10 & 244-10)
Overs left today: 8
Mcclory 16-1-55-1
Lamey* 100 (141 balls)
Marriott 19 (28 balls)

Last Wicket: Sinethemba c. Faaiz b. Pearce 36 (FOW: 206/3)
