Embarrassing defeat against the Netherlands looming. We need 34 off 10 balls with two wickets left.

No chance.

I think the team selection shows how seriously the Bears are taking the rest of that competition. Right thing really, need to keep key players rested so that we can finish as high as possible in the championship

Eighteen off the penultimate over so we need seventeen to win off this last one. Vaguely possible, but still highly unlikely.

Yep. If you told me we would be starting a game without Wright, Barker, Woakes, Rankin and Clarke I would predict a fairly high score for the opposition of any calibre.

An enjoyable match, nonetheless.

What a curse i am - Johnson bowled next ball by Collingwood.

Bears 136 - 4 30 Overs
Rikki just hit 14 off last over ....too little too late
