Bears/Pears Cricket Thread 2014

[PGW]

During the middle session another flurry of wickets:
Lancs 184 - 9 a lead of 107. in the last over before Tea which means 35 left lose 2 for change off innings if we get the last 2.
Barker has taken the new ball and immediately took Kerrigan caught by Woakes at mid on.
Because 9th wicket fell Tea has been delayed for 30 minutes ot till all out whichever the sooner.

[PGW]

Patel bowling the 2nd over with the new ball......188-9
Wickets since lunch
Horton   b Patel  84
Buttler Ct Chopra b Javid 42
White Ct Ambrose b Hannon- Dalby 7
Kerrigan Ct Woakes b Barker  1

All out, taking tea. When Bears resume we need 120 to win.

Anyone idea what the weather is looking like up there? Might just have time to win if we make a decent start.

Chapple LBW Patel 15
Anderson NO 5
Bears need 120 to win - Tea being taken now so i assume no 2 over loss so in theory 32 overs to get em
