Hopefully the sub is limping too!

89 - 6

Is Joe Weatherly  injured? That sub is going to be in use alot!

28 - 4

Apparently the BBC claiming that the target is 488!

Abbott out. 18,- 3!

Just need another 3 now!

358-8 declared, 417 ahead.

403, is that it then?

101 - 0 in second innings, 160 ahead. How many do we need to bowl them out by tomorrow evening?

Have the players decided to go home and think about the next match - still 13 points ahead?

BBC happily retweeting everything from Essex. Thank goodness the right team is in control!

Can I argue the case for another draw? That'll give us the chance of another freak win! 

How many overs left this evening?

On another note... I have memories of watching Somerset play a Sunday match against Clevedon cricket club at their ground on Dial Hill in the 60's? I think Somerset had the likes of Brian Langford, Fred Rumsey, a very young Peter Denning and maybe Bill Alley still playing in the team. I assume this was a one off "charity/community match."? Anyone else remember this? Do Somerset have time for these matches now with so many different competitions running during the season?

Yay! 216 all out. Hopefully survive this evening without any shocks.

192 for 6 at tea. Hopefully wrap this up this afternoon! 

Essex 50 for 1

These runs are playing havoc with Lewis's bowling figures! 

7 down!

BBC website can't cope with the excitement!

32 for 3

Correct, it's the first 110 overs in the first innings

Does each team get 4 points for a draw or do they by default just give Hampshire 8 points when they get rained off? 

Am I right in thinking that you don't get any bonus points in second innings? Might aswell call it a draw and go on to next match.

Rained off til tomorrow now.
