Bears/Pears/Domestic Cricket Thread 2019

[Villafirst]

Yes, good to see the Bears on top at last. Norwell is proving to be a good signing with bat and ball.

[Villan For Life]

The weather is probably ruining our chances with only 22 overs bowled before rain took them off. Bears 76-2, a lead of 181.

[Villan For Life]

The weather is dry and the Bears are going for victory against the jazz hats from Surrey.

Surrey are 50-3 off 15.4 overs needing a further 222 to win. Patel has taken all 3 wickets, earlier Batty took 8-64 including a hat trick before Patel declared.

It will be an interesting afternoon, the Bears will be pushing for a win on a turning day 4 Edgbaston pitch. The Bears should be favourites with a draw the next likely result.

Come on you Bears!

Surrey 88-5

93-7, Patel has 5-30.

93/6 now, Jeets with 5. Only seen a couple of clips on the bears facebook page but the pitch looks like a dream for a spinner, erratic bounce and loads of sideways movement.

117-8, Patel has 7-34

COYB, we really need this.

[PGW]

A win by 130 runs.
Rikki Clarke did his best to hold us up 51*

Patel will be knackered 62 overs in match with 12 wickets

[Villafirst]

Well done you Bears! Victory at last. Very good considering top players are still injured.

YAAAAASSS.

[Villan For Life]

A massive win

[Villan For Life]

We seem to have turned a corner, we played well against Somerset even though we lost and dominated Surrey to score a win.

Next up at Edgbaston are Nottinghamshire and that game has the makings of a relegation decider, it’s a must win game.
