Hants 6-1 after getting Notts out for 177 need 126 more to win. Orgen gone for a duck
14-1 at lunch 118 required
33-1 only require 99 to win
And they’re now taking tea, having delayed the break for fifteen minutes as Hants were very close to winning. During that fifteen minutes, Middleton was out for 65, then Vince and Gubbins brought the scores level. At the end of that over the umpires took them off for tea. So we need one run to win, with eight wickets in hand and a day plus a session to play.
There must be some rule saying that the tea interval can’t be delayed for more than fifteen minutes, but taking the players off with the match as it stands is just mental.
and we win by 8 wickets 2 balls after tea.
We are all Lancashire supporters today.
They only need 406 for the win.
They got to lunch with 2 down. 330 to go but 8 wickets remaining more importantly
5pm and Lancs still have 7 wickets
Match drawn
“We are top, no 2nd, no, shit, 2nd equal in the league. I say…”
