Shipley Ram Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 So close, it would have felt better if they had been 50 runs short. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inter politics Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Good effort considering. How much are bonus points worth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got 3 bowling points so a win would take us level on points with Essex. Unfortunately, as far as I am aware, they will qualify ahead of us on games won. Let's hope Worcester can pull of a result against Somerset and then we follow it up with a win. I'm not holding my breath though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not holding my breath though. I believe a Worcester win would see them qualify on wickets taken over us. After they just squeaked to 200 all out in their first innings. Such fine margins. I fully expect us to go and win this now, just for it to be even more agonising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd not realised that Worcester were so close tbh. Nor did I know it was wickets taken as the deciding factor. Off for a little weep now.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Having said that, BBC cricket think we’ve still got a chance. There doesn’t seem much certainty over the tie break rules, after number of wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rammieib Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 This is such a Derbyshire thing to do. Before the end they were just scoring too slowly - at some point, wickets will go down if you just defend the balls constantly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a difficult pitch to bat on, and only 2 batsmen have scored any real runs, and both did it by digging in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inter politics Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 On a side note, Ian Bell out for 90 in his final first class innings. Shame there was no farewell century but what a lovely player to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Buckley’s Dog Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Are they playing the second innings on a different pitch!?! Who cares anyway about a Lords final if fans aren’t allowed. Doesn’t count if you can’t see it. That’s what I’m telling myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
