stevegrant Posted 8 August, 2008 Share Posted 8 August, 2008 Rob Key is really quite grumpy, it seems. I don't blame him. You can guarantee that if we'd had a match like that where 38 wickets fall in two days, we'd have been docked points. Absolutely ridiculous decision.

Fowllyd Posted 8 August, 2008 Share Posted 8 August, 2008 Yee-haw!! Ton's up, 103 without loss now. OK, let's start the 'easy, easy' chants... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fowllyd Posted 8 August, 2008 Share Posted 8 August, 2008 Yes!!!! Ten-wicket win. How's that leave the table? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevegrant Posted 8 August, 2008 Share Posted 8 August, 2008 One batting point, three bowling points, 14 points for the win, which gives us 111 points. Given that some games aren't finished yet, here's how it currently stands (bonus points already gained ARE included) 1. Durham P10 132 2. Nottinghamshire P10.5 129 3. Somerset P9.5 118 4. Kent P11 114 5. Sussex P10.5 113 6. Lancashire P9.5 112 7. Hampshire P12 111 8. Yorkshire P11 104 9. Surrey P10 85 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gully Posted 8 August, 2008 Share Posted 8 August, 2008 Good to see that we didn't loose a wicket in the second innings, should keep pitch inspectors off our back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicestersaint Posted 8 August, 2008 Author Share Posted 8 August, 2008 Well at least we are in a positionto salvage things - if we carry on winning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weston Saint Posted 8 August, 2008 Share Posted 8 August, 2008 When they were 55-5 I spoke to Jack Rudolph and he said the wicket was ok, just usual Yorkshire batting. Spoke to Nick Pothas at lunch and he said there was nothing wrong with the wicket, just good bowling. The fact we scored an unbeaten opening stand of 108 proves the point. A very good and important win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicestersaint Posted 8 August, 2008 Author Share Posted 8 August, 2008 Critically important - and something to build on during the rest of this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope for bad weather when they play catch up or just win our last four games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope for bad weather when they play catch up or just win our last four games. This is a fair point, but it is all looking a lot closer than i thought it would a month ago. If we could get a run of form together we would stay up - so lat's do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsacar saint Posted 9 August, 2008 Share Posted 9 August, 2008 That is now 3 unbeaten, hopefully we can stay out of the bottom two places now. I did not see this result coming , and am extremely happy with it.[ The confidence levels are obviously rising, and Tahir has made a big difference- and also well done to James Tomlinson]. I did say I thought we would would go down, and would love to be proved wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
