The Bears / Pears 2010 Cricket Thread

[Simon Ward]

Kent 58-8. C'mon you bears

[ADVILLAFAN]

Plenty of time left in the Bears and Kent game with sunshine forecast. A decent score in our 2nd innings and we'll be big favourites to win the match.

Bears doing their best to make this into a contest: 19 for 4 in their second innings. Gah.

[hilts_coolerking]

Make that 33 for 6.

[Villan For Life]

Make that 33 for 6.

WTF did we not enforce the follow on?

How to snatch defeat from the hands of victory in one easy lesson!

[hilts_coolerking]

54 for 8.  This after choosing not to enforce the follow on.

[Chris Smith]

54 for 8.

That's 28 wickets in a day and half.

[ADVILLAFAN]

We didn't want to make the match boring 

[hilts_coolerking]

54 for 8.

That's 28 wickets in a day and half.

Quite. Which makes the decision to bat again even more baffling.

At the moment the match aggregate is 471 - 28 in just under 5 sessions........

Oh I agree but if the pitch is as bad as it appears we're still well placed to win. Only 1 score above 33 from almost 3 innings.

On the subject of remarkable stats, I read yesterday that the Bears 10th wicket has produced more century and half-century stands this season than the 1st wicket.

[Chris Smith]

We've now added 60 for the 9th wicket.

114 for 8.

[Villan For Life]

We've now added 60 for the 9th wicket.

114 for 8.

Which makes the lead around 300. We should be able to defend that.......
