COYB. Surely we can't throw it away from here. should've won it last year. It must be ours now.

Bears 255/2 off 81.3 overs...................COYB

[peter w]

298/3 off 95.3 overs.

52 more runs from 24.3 overs and then win the game and the title's sewn up.

What's the weather forecast for the next couple of days?

Gloomy for Worcester (ha ha ha) I'd guess.

302/3 95.5 overs now. Chopra 173 not out.

An' now you gonna believe usssssssssssss....

Bears 303/3 off 96 overs..............COYB

[Dave Cooper please]

Grind them into the ground!
42 of the next 11 overs for maximum batting points.

[spangley1812]

320/4 off 102 overs @ lunch

COYB

I make it 30 from 48 deliveries for the 4th batting point, which coupled with the win would give us the title.

[peter w]

My mistake - its 110 overs not 120. So 30 needed off the next 8. Sussex well on top so lets make sure we do the job boys.

Warwickshire 351/5 (109.0 ov)

Lead by 291 runs....................COYB

[ADVILLAFAN]

7 bonus points out of 8, with Worcs only getting 1.

Just wonder how many runs we'll get now.

[peter w]

Full batting points. now Virun, old son, get your highest score and really hurt them. Depending on the weather I'd bat as long as we can. Sod it - until tea will do. Stick them back in for a couple of hours and watch our title charge before our very eyes.

[ADVILLAFAN]

Full batting points would be 400+ by 110 over mark I think.

200 - 1
250 - 2
300 - 3
350 - 4
400 - 5

[peter w]

I drop the useless get anyway. Still only 4 points rather than 5 needed (keep forgetting the new bonus point system) so all's still rosy in the Warks garden.

[Simon Ward]

Chopra out 5 short of a double ton. Bears lead by 324 though!

Jonathan Trott has been ruled out of the rest of the domestic season with an undisplaced fracture in his right hand, the England and Wales Cricket Board have confirmed.
