Northern Red Posted April 10, 2021 Report Share Posted April 10, 2021 Could be a tight finish at Lord's tomorrow if the weather holds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted April 11, 2021 Report Share Posted April 11, 2021 Get in! This game is exactly the sort that makes county cricket the great contest it is. Nip and tuck, one side on top and then the other with the game looking over after two days only for Somerset to rally and come back to win it. Great stuff! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bearded_red Posted April 11, 2021 Report Share Posted April 11, 2021 What a win! Hope Middlesex enjoyed that after the stitch up in 2016 and the endless crying about the pitch in 2017. Slugs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would assume that to also the case with Gregory and Banton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid in the Riot Posted April 11, 2021 Report Share Posted April 11, 2021 Anyone know what the earliest is fans will be able to get back to the CACG? Government guidance seems to suggest rule of 6/two households as long as socially distanced will be ok from tomorrow onwards...is that being put into practice?

New Dazzler Posted April 11, 2021 Report Share Posted April 11, 2021 Glos needing 101 with 8 wickets in hand. All looking good, Van Buuren and Dent well set. What could possibly go wrong? Well the commentators are convinced that bad light could be an issue! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sun is shining up there right now, Dent and Van Buuren are looking comfortable with 73 to go but you never know. It's gone a bit dark here in Portishead, I hope that doesn't make it's way up to Horfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Van Buuren is showing a lot of aggression, lets hope that is the right tactic (seems to have works so far). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
