They can get extra points if they score over so many runs

Essex: 367-5
Derbyshire: 551

Go Go Super Essex comeback

Hang on a minute. Isn't this game you're getting all excited about the cricketing equivalent of Burnley versus Southend? It's fine to support lower league teams of course - in fact, I've got some sympathy for the argument that it's "proper supporting" - but let's not get over-excited about it as though it's somehow important, even in the devalued meaning of the word as it applies to cricket.

I can tell you are desperate to get involved, it's just you don't understand the rules and are embarrassed to ask

Essex are in a spot of bother now. Derbyshire win or draw are the only possible outcomes. My money is on a Derby win at this point.

Essex: 407
Derbyshire: 551 & 156-2

Good response (by you, not Essex, obviously).

First day of the cricket season...

Not had a net all winter and fluked a 50.

Ha ha, it wasn't pretty but look in the book!!!

Nice work mate.

I had a ripper year last year and averaged 52.5 with the bat, so i'm trying to beat that again....Set myself a target of 3 centuries this season

I've just had one net, did some bowling (i'm ****e at that) and I pulled so many muscles in the left hand of my body, I could hardly breathe.

The Drama Queen in me thought I had bust up loads of ribs & was having a heart attack. The rational part of me just realised I'm getting on and ****ing unfit.

Cricket season has finished in Australia, we lost in the grand final.

[GordonGecko]

A Grand Final? That sounds very.....errr.....grand

What team do you play for?

[darkknight]

Coincides nicely with the end of your world cup.

Just an observation :handshakeythingo:

52.5 with the bat hey - have you sent your resume to Lords ?

[Milan_Milan]

I made a stylish 13 yesterday, and a slow pitch caused me to leading edge a push through mid wicket straight to the cover fielder. Bloody annoying given we were only chasing 98 and there was an easy 30 or 40 not out there for me. Back to uni now though and got 7 games in 2 weeks!

[GordonGecko]

Haha England may be **** at one day cricket, but they aren't that ****.

[darkknight]

lol

Was going to ask if it was much of a step up but I guess that answers that question.
