Bears/Pears/Domestic Cricket Thread 2019

[PGW]

Well timed hundred for Sibley.  If he can turn it into a big one tomorrow, it might just secure him a place on the tour to NZ.

OHD in with him

Well batted Dom. See you in NZ in a few weeks

Notts onto 51/4

Duckett just gone to Garrett leaving one that clattered his off stump. Garrett looks a very decent bowler. Watching it here - http://live.trentbridge.co.uk/

Lead is up to over 100 now, Clarke is batting very well to be fair to him but Garrett has got a little bit ragged. 92/4 lead of 102. Into the last few overs of the day now.

If we can nick another 1 tonight it'd be great but either way if we can get them with the lead less than 200 I don't think there's enough happening off the pitch to make that too difficult to chase.

105-5 at stumps. It could be an interesting last day tomorrow.

Really good season for Warwickshire in the CC considering the number of injuries to senior players.

Worcestershire seems to have given up the ghost as a four day side and have thrown their weight behind the white ball game.  This is what is happening to cricket and will affect the England side going forward.  The 100?  Is it really needed?  I am ashamed of Worcestershire's red ball season.

I would temper that as red ball batting - bowling has been pretty steady

Yep, been a decent enough first season back in the top flight.  Need to strengthen quite considerably in the close season though or hope some of the injuries clear up.

Notts all out for 260 (which is about 70-80 more than we'd have wanted them to get) so, depending on your viewpoint, Bears need 271 or to survive for 58 overs.

[Villan For Life]

They seem to be going for it, There’s 33 overs left and they’re 98-0. They need a shade over 5 an over and in the last 10 overs they’ve scored at just under 5 an over. It’s heading for a decent finish.

[paul_e]

Why wouldn't you go for it with 10 wickets in hand. They've moved on to 143/0 with 23 overs to get 128.

[paul_e]

It's starting to look a big ask, we really need a big over or 2 I think. Sibley is batting superbly though, just rotating the strike and keeping it sensible.
