sage Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 321 for 8 now. A second wicket for Lakmal. Looks like they will declare at lunch and we will be chasing something like 330 off around 66 overs. Four and a half an over. jimbo jones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My maths says that is 4.75 runs an over if they do declare at lunch. That would be an interesting afternoon of cricket ahead. If they bat on, not so much.

jimbo jones Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 The Scrimshaw no ball shenanigans was a killer. We've been really poor at finishing teams of this season (and longer), and he did that in the first innings. To have him stood out on the boundary unable to bowl was frustrating.

jimbo jones Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Finally get Coles out and they finally declare. Might as well shake hands now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't leave anything for us in the chase. This has been a good game, but I'll be incredibly annoyed if we lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Going at 5.6 runs an over and it's not close to enough...which tells you what you need to know about the declaration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Haider Ali had a smash, 73 off 54 balls, if he'd gone on another 30 mins it could have got interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Win, lose or draw, this was a good performance, decided in part by George being forced out of the attack for no-ball infringements. He will live and learn. jimbo jones 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Wasn’t to be, the proper batters had to keep swinging, which always gave the opportunity to be caught out. Expecting Conners and. Scrimshaw to do that when Sussex kept the field out was never going to happen. Thought that was a bit negative again from them, took half the final over to bring everyone in. Excitng, competitive cricket is what I want from a Derbyshire team, and we got that this week. angieram, Grumpy Git, inter politics and 2 others 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
