[Woodster]

Good knock from Ashwell. Patel's off-breaks no problem for him.
Surrey have avoided the follow-on. Another opportunity for Philander to pick up five as well.

It appears they were in the second dig, unfortunately.

 

[Jacknife]

Yorkshire declare 9 down 28 behind, really good to see some bollocks about this side.

 

[Howe_zat]

That's a glorious piss take of a declaration. Need a couple out tonight to make it interesting.

 

[theegyptian]

Surrey game should be interesting tomorrow. Possibly chasing around 300 on the last day will be a good test of the batting order against Philander and co

 

[zaremba]

Sussex effectively 200-0 against Worcester, but unfortunately with only a day to play. Some big biffing until half an hour before lunch and it could be game on

Jeez, Jonah cuts a fuller figure nowadays, eh? Practically strolling up to the crease too.

8-52 for Meaker. Really starting to put down some impressive performances. Surrey need 305 to win. No doubt they'll go for it imo.

 

[TT Boy]

Wonderful spell from Meaker it seems. Always knew how to take out the tail but getting some important top order wickets now. Surrey cruising at the moment. Playing out Philander, smashing the rest.

 

[TT Boy]

Roy and Rudolph out. Somerset back in front.

[Jacknife]

Meandering to a draw at Headingley, Hampshire will probably put us in for a few overs late on to see if we can **** it up,

Might go down to the wire at the Oval, 121 needed to win, RHB and Batty will need to get the majority of those.

 

[Manee]

Has anyone got a video of declaration bowling from a county game?

 

[theegyptian]

Horton putting on a clinic on how to bat out for a draw. lancs really needed that given their start this season.

Interesting game at the Oval. Both teams have been on the defensive for a while. Dockrell bowling over the wicket into the rough to RHB and Batty a la Ashley Giles v Tendulkar 2001. Into the final hour but one wicket now and Somerset with a big chance. Surrey aren't going for it.

 

[Pup Clarke]

Practically strolling up to the crease too.

He always did didn't he?

 

[vic_orthdox]

Yeh, but with a bit more purpose than that...

 

[stumpski]

Lolz at Kent finding life tough against the Unicorns ...

 

[stumpski]

Durham have got hopelessly behind the clock in what shouldn't have been that difficult a chase.

Unicorns want 51 off the last nine with veteran Keith Parsons at the wicket.
