Title: County Championship 2010
Post by: Wills on September 13, 2010, 07:46:27 PM
I really want Somerset to win.
But my gut instinct says Notts.

What do you guys think?

Somerset should but Yorkshire got a better weather start to the games, Notts are suffering from choking....

i think durham will beat somerset. im my opinion, it will come down to bonus points from these matches, as i suspect washouts. a yorkshire win seems likely.

Yorkshire played so have got a slight advantage. The four teams who were washed out pretty much need to play aggressively for the last 3 days.

Off topic, but im too lazy to make a new topic.

The best scenario for Somerset is Mumbai Indians to be knocked out.
And then Pollard somehow being allowed to play in the Pro40 final.

I'm not big fan of any of the 3 but I really hope Yorks do it, a great effort considering the number of young home grown players.

Very happy for Ashraf as hes been toiling awayall year for the Academy, with a couple 2nd team games and hes taken his chance! Also Hildreths bat makes up for those softs, which are disgusting!

Might be too little to late for Kent, Yorkshire skittled for 130, Tredwell taking 7-22!

Might just get him on the plane to oz as the second spinner

Wickets going cheap down there, Kent 6-2 atm.....

Notts, not getting declaration bowling so maybe they are going to have to push for bonus points only, Yorks or Somerset likely to win if things stay the same.

Tredwell definitely going to aus now...8-22 in the match and certainly outbowling Rashid

Tidy hat-trick nipped in there too! Going to be a great last few hours. Want to see some declaration bowling myself, get the keepers on!!!

going to be a tense finish... Durham are stoically holding out - but in the Lancs Notts game, Notts are on the charge, needing 70 to get maximum batting points and will then need 3 wickets to claim the pennant...

Fat Sammy just out for 96... ooohhh its is going down to the wire.

notts have to be favourites! but somerset jut nipped in with 2 quick wickets!

You'd back a somerset batting lineup to chase anything upto 200 off 20ish overs if they can nip the last two out. But looks like Benkenstein is there to hang around. Shame, hasn't really been any radical moves from anyone yet!

9 down for Durham now.  Lead of 175.  Could still be interesting.
Title: Re: County Championship 2010
Post by: roco on September 16, 2010, 02:37:26 PM
all out 10 runs an over could be fun as somerset will be going for it 181 to win

3 wickets for Notts and the title is theirs as Somerset are 3 down and playing for the draw
