He's not trying to hit the leather off the ball! It all looks effortless when he's on this form!
If I were Essex, I would be looking to get him out asap, or he will inflict ALOT of damage!
Whereas if he stays in for another 10 overs, I predict CARNAGE!

somerset will surely be looking at 300 now, still got hildreth and compton at the crease, with buttler, suppiah and phillips to come!

As ever, Somerset will win the semi in quite a convincing fashion.
Then lose in the final.

for dropping suppiah or for getting out first ball?
Title: Re: cb40 semi essex v somerset
Post by: petehosk on September 11, 2010, 03:03:46 PM
Essex will have their work cut out chasing this!
Already the running between the wickets is looking tentative!!  :(
Title: Re: cb40 semi essex v somerset
Post by: petehosk on September 11, 2010, 03:14:00 PM
The catch by Tresco was pretty awesome!!
And the run out was sharp! I reckon Essex won't recover from that over!

Title: Re: cb40 semi essex v somerset

their top 3 have gone.
if they win this, foster has to play a big role

imagine what its like for me , we have just been relegated from div 1, got to finals day and cocked it up, now in a cb40 semi and are 41/3 chasing 300 odd. FML !

The funniest thing is just when they were showing the reply of MT catching Cook out, you suddenly heard one of the commentators in the background laughing their head off!
So I rewound to see what he was laughing at! And because MT snatched the ball out of the air, Bumble's comment was, "WHAT A SNATCH!" and that obviously gave the other commentators the giggles!  ;)

essex are still in it...
they might just pull it off if these two stay at the middle.

Post by: petehosk on September 11, 2010, 03:49:08 PM
Flower was batting and running well.
But I knew that as soon as he tried that second run AGAIN, that he would be struggling to get back!
That one handed pick up and throw was brilliant!

It all hangs on these two now!
Ooooh, this could be another run out? Phew...that was close!
Foster has to build a partnership with Walker if they are going to stand a chance!

adam wheater is a very promising cricketer aswel, he's already got a fifty in this comp in his first game, gd player

8.5> is quite a gettable rate, especially at Taunton. A few more blows from Foster, and this could be interesting.
Title: Re: cb40 semi essex v somerset
Post by: petehosk on September 11, 2010, 04:09:59 PM
Yeh - but Essex really need either Foster or Walker to bat through and get a ton if they're gonna chase it down!
A Walker ton and Foster half will mean game on!!
But Somerset bowling is pretty strong, so won't be easy!!  :(

Walkers bat (Grey Nicolls Legend?) looks decent. Retro type stickers, just like DF seem to be doing!

Oooops, Walker out. That chase just got a whole lot harder!

it was all your fault pete!
the commentator's curse...
Title: Re: cb40 semi essex v somerset
Post by: essexarsenal on September 11, 2010, 04:12:18 PM
1 more wicket and games over , comon wheater and fozzy
walkers bat - looks like it has a sword on the back which could be a warsop with the front sticker as gray nic, not sure anyone know what his bat is ?
Title: Re: cb40 semi essex v somerset
Post by: petehosk on September 11, 2010, 04:19:37 PM
I'm sure the label said 'Legend'?
So GN Legend as far as I can see!
Is it one they're releasing soon maybe?
Title: Re: cb40 semi essex v somerset

im guessing that foster's wicket sealed it for Somerset.

cant believe everyone missed kieswetter's and palladino's little argument when palladino was ran out!
Title: Re: cb40 semi essex v somerset
Post by: peplow on September 11, 2010, 05:20:23 PM
Yeah palladino just gave him the old w***** hand shake and kieswetter probably made some witty remark back, probably about his mum, knowing how much of an idiot kieswetter seems to be!!!!!!!

Look somerset played well, all I was saying is that was a terrible lbw decision clearly going down leg. Wasnt a mullering as I thought essex put up a good fight after loosing 3 early wickets.
Title: Re: cb40 semi essex v somerset
Post by: peplow on September 11, 2010, 06:11:22 PM
yeah at one point they were flying, but 95 runs is a mullering! Just didnt tell the full story!
