Bat 'em out of the game.
Runs flow freely when you have over 100 on the board.

We need wickets and fast tomorrow morning.
Worcs need wickets and fast tomorrow morning.

Am I right in thinking if Middlesex get 400 we are done?

dont think so it looks like both teams will get 8 bonus pts if we get to 9 wickets and middlesex get 400
if the bbc table hasnt been updated yet

I'm often wrong but I think that's correct unless they were to reach 400 and somehow lose their match

Re: GLAMMY

Yep if Middx get 400 within 110 overs it's all over as there will be no chance of them losing fron there so they will pick up 16 points as a minimum.
This is going to be settled today. Our dire performance v Middx has cost us dear. We were then reliant upon Worcs who battled so poorly on day one that this was becoming inevitable.

Re: GLAMMY

We were some way off our best against Worcestershire a few weeks ago. Worcestershire, the team that stopped us going up in 2012 and are making life easy for Middlesex today - I shouldn’t, because they never do us any favours, but I’ve always quite liked them.

Ah well, doomed to forever live in the lower conferences below the Strauss Super League.

It's all done. They will get the eight runs they need in the next few minutes which will effectively confirm their promotion.

Re: GLAMMY

Can’t have many complaints that the team that pips us to the post is the only one that beat us twice, comprehensively (Durham, I think, being the only other loss this season).

All in all, I think you’d have to call this a successful red ball campaign. Lots of records set and a decent haul of victories. But at the moment it’s all very disappointing.

It's very frustrating though as we're in pole position going into September but then played very poorly in consecutive games

Re: GLAMMY

I don’t think you can complain about Gill and Patel’s contributions, but we’ve missed Neser especially a lot. Overall, it’s been a good red ball season though - I can remember posting a link to a Guardian article at the start of the season that predicted we’d come third and thinking no chance. However, we’ve had a good squad this year, even if it’s a bit back to square obeisance next season when it comes to seam bowling- the Second Division’s going to be a bit of waste of time next season though with no promotion.

Re: GLAMMY

Disappointing, but good to see us pushing for promotion until (almost) the end.

[Lord Worcester]

Re: GLAMMY

Indeed very disappointing. But even if worcs had done us a favour we had to win. And sussex’ 20/20 effort in the 2nd innings means that s no longer looking likely. As others have said that bloody middx game.
