Northants match

[glyn]

Decent start - Northants 130-6. Could do with getting them out cheaply seeing as we've missed almost a day because of rain

stumps. liooks like no wins in the championship before the Twenty20....

We could forfeit our 1st innings and let them set us a target if the weather holds out

well we're 72-3 so we probably won't need to declare early :icon_roll

Chanderpaul - let's get him in as our second overseas player for the second half of the season to become the rock our batting needs. Then send Jacobs back to Scotland - hardly been worth the price that having a Kolpak player brings :icon_roll

120-4 now. Only Tom New has scored more than 2 50s/100s in the Championship this season. Abysmal.

Don't really see the point in us batting on, we might as well be trying to get a game going

131/4 declared. I guess some sort of game is on.

Perhaps its a bit boring but I would have batted on. 5 batting bonus points on offer is a lot. I don't see a lot wrong with trying to get a 12 point draw.

End of match already so I'm hearing.

Still think I was right about trying to get a few more bonus points!

But the way we bat we'd have been all out for 200 anyway!
