ah you explained yourself! now if you'd done that in the first place instead of just shouting obscenities at our best chance of winning the damned thing you wouldn't have forced me into dragging it out of you.
and yes if that's what you want in a modern footballer I will indeed call you old fashioned, skillfull and acting in an honourable fashion just doesn't happen anymore it seems. certainly no player from this country springs to mind ...
Yorkshire not keen on a sporting declaration then and are happy to bat out a draw, clearly.
Unless they reckon they can knock us over in and hour and 45
sling the bat time. 111 behind, 3 wickets remaining, frustrate them by swinging hard. get to within 50-60, knock them over for 200, knock the runs of in 2 1/2 sessions tomorrow.
next...
arent you contradicting yourself there?
i'd put ervine ahead of pothas and therefore take the pressure off pothas to score as heavily as we need him to at the moment.
Irvine 107*
he's been quite good so far hasnt he? Propped up a couple of innings. lets get him in before Pothas, give the mainline batsmen some help. He's likely to run out of partners...
cant see us winning now, 140 odd lead, last day 6 wickets remaining.
nearly 100 balls to get to 29 for both Vince and Pothas was good digging in last night and can't see any change in that strategy to be honest....
first draw of the season? woooo!!
