We’re two points above Middlesex, but they’ll go above us even if they lose to Notts, something which seems unlikely as they’ve not lost a wicket this morning.
Next game, home to Notts.

Such a good and important win. In the end a number of players made big contributions. Byrom’s knock in the first innings ensured we didn’t have to follow on. Ingram and Root batted brilliantly and a real shame Root didn’t get the century but his batting average will be boosted along with his confidence.
Having Neser for the season will make such a difference. He really is a fine bowler. Hogan is still bowling well. It would be a great send off if we can win promotion before he retires.
Forgot the bloody game was on! :facepalm:
Still, great to come on here and see we'd won 👏 👏 👏
Well done to Billy Root, and the whole team.
Oh 'me" of little faith! :biggrin:
We've got notts next, so a real chance to go top of the league or very close. Sussex are only 1 wicket down at tea, need 169 in final session to beat Derbyshire. Would be great for us if they could pull that result off , would put a real gap between us.
Both Cooke and Van Der Gugten should be available for the Notts game in a couple of weeks,
Good news. Woukd love to see timm in as the extra bowler. With harris/weighell/douthwaite replacing one of the under performing top order players.
255 to win. Hmmmm
crap start, hiding coming
This game has reminded me that the Essex crowd are the worst bunch of ***** in professional sport. Has anyone else had the unfortunate experience of them in person?
Glad I decided against going to Chelmsford.
I don’t know what the biggest margin of defeat in domestic T20 is but this will be right up there. Hopeless.
bowling was dreadful and left no chance. feel sorry for northeast
