Bears/Pears/Domestic Cricket Thread 2018

[paul_e]

Really need a bit of a partnership here, Trott is ticking over nicely so he just needs support (and to not do something stupid).

[PGW]

Target below 150 now as we move to:
57/3
Trott 32
Hain 14

146 required

[PGW]

57/4
Trott LBW Murtagh 32

Disappointing....great applause from Middx crowd on his last first class appearance at Lords

[paul_e]

I fucking knew I was tempting fate.

[cdbearsfan]

64 for 5, come on for fuck's sake. Give us one decent partnership and we are back in it.

[PGW]

64/5
Woakes lbw raynor 6

139 more

[PGW]

108/6
Hain LBW Harris 37
Ambrose 18*

95 needed

[paul_e]

This is so frustrating, every time we start to build something we lose a wicket.

95 to get but only 4 wickets in hand now.

[paul_e]

Moving things along, 65 to win now, I think this is going to be tight, with win lose and draw all still very possible.

[PGW]

Tea
142/6
Ambrose 41
Patel 4

61 more needed. This is going to the wire.

[manic-road]

Bollocks Ambrose has gone, 151-7.

[PGW]

First over after Tea Patel takes 9 runs off 5 balls but first ball Ambrose faces he edges to Raynor at slip off Fuller for 41
151/7

52 to win

This is a thriller.

[PGW]

153/8
Patel LBW Murtagh 13

Looked somewhat dodgy
50 more....struggle now

[paul_e]

I think we're done with Jeets going and still 50 to get.  We really needed Ambrose and Jeets to see us through the 5-6 overs after tea, instead both are gone and we're well into the tail.

[Rotterdam]

45 with two left...
