England picked themselves up a bit, more or less on a par with India now

[whiteswan]

Spoke too soon. India's to lose now?

[The Subhuman]

I thought that. How can that be out if it was a wide?

It just can, they must have changed the rules at some point as it wasn't that when I umpired ....

[whiteswan]

Wow! What an over.

[The Subhuman]

29 off that over... 2 no balls helped

[The Subhuman]

Bethell with a 6 over his head

[The Subhuman]

All about Bethell this you feel, if he stays in we win. Just lost Curran..

[The Subhuman]

Well done Archer, single off the last ball, keeps the strike

10 from 12 so should do this

[The Subhuman]

That does it ...76 for Bethell is MOTM

Excellent game of cricket. Bethell played very well and yes, I think the two no balls handed the impetus to England. Bethell played them perfectly.

Lancashire v Yorkshire T20 blast. Joe Root playing.....live on sky sports 405

[whiteswan]

Oh dear.....

[The Subhuman]

oh dear indeed, bad day for both of us

McCullum finally sacked as Test coach. Stays as coach for ODI's and Mickey Mouse stuff. Key remains in job which is baffling.

Would have liked to have seen how McCullum did on his own. Always felt a bit like Stokes was sometimes too big of a personality.

Yorks going well as they try to qualify, Hants win at Sussex to go through to the QF's

[The Subhuman]

Yorks joins Hants to make the QF's with Northants, Notts, and Gloucester

Now we both need Essex to beat Surrey as that would give Yorks a home draw Wednesday and make us win our division. I think if Surrey win

Northants
Notts
Surrey
Hants get home draws



Somerset could use a win to get in for sure, later

[The Subhuman]

Looks like Essex will beat Surrey by a long way

So Yorkshire should get a home QF

Is anyone reading these important updates?


Anyway it should be

Northants, Notts, Hants, Yorks at home.
Somerset, Surrey, Gloucester, Essex are away

Wednesday for the quarters and next weekend for finals day

[The Subhuman]

Here's my guess if it's seeded based on points and run rate

Northants (1) v Gloucester (8)
Hants (2) v Essex (7)
Notts (3) v Surrey (6)
Yorks (4) v Somerset (5)

Edited as Somersets rout of Worcestershire has them passing Surrey's run rate

No easy games though and Essex turned us over last week IIRC

Always reading but zero interest in the format. I imagine we'll only get beat by bloody Hampshire once again at some stage

Our recent record against them is awful across all formats and I'm dreading the game in the CC where another defeat to them could badly damage our survival prospects.
