Bears/Pears/Domestic Cricket Thread

[Dr Butler]

Moeen coming in seems to have disrupted the Bears, the bowling and fielding has been 'off' in the last 2 games.

England to the rescue

So... When do we lose Hain to England?

[olaftab]

Recovered well to post a decent total. Hain is superb.

[PGW]

Bears have won toss and have elected to bat.
Team: Davies, Yates, Rhodes, Hain, Mousley, Barnard, Burgess, (wk), Briggs, Rushworth, Hasan Ali, OHD

[PGW]

About 5 minutes from lunch:
Bears 86/1
Davies 40*
Rhodes 31*
Yates man out 13

Proper cricket at a weekend in the summer….someone from the ECB should be fired immediately…

….& Pears have dropped Pollock :-)

The Bears are in a good position at the end of day two at Trent Bridge

I wonder if this serious incident in Nottingham will affect todays play.
City shut down

[Dr Butler]

looks like the Bears may only bat once in this game...

I think we've let Sussex off the hook Gareth.  That batting collapse and only 62 run lead has let them right back in to the game, I make them favourites now.

100% Steve, the collapse was annoying, as was 3 top order batsmen getting to around and then getting out once in.  See Bracewell is out for 6-8 months so that frees up a overseas slot, need to find a bowler who is capable of bowling at tailenders…so stupid that we can run through top order but get hammered time and again by the tail.

Looks like interesting finishes for both sides today

Bears are 30 behind Notts with Notts having 4 wkts left…Clarke 222no…need to open up an end quickly

Pears need 160 odd with 8 wickets remaining

Only really impossible result there is a Notts win

[Steve67]

65 needed for the Pears.  Is there enough time left?  What a game.

Starting to lose wickets. Hope my gut feeling is wrong!
