Anybody following Somerset v Essex? 12:08 - Sep 24 with 3312 viewsgainsboroughblue

Somerset 206-5 at the moment. Seems like decent batting conditions at the moment and still unsure what a good total is. Essex may be feeling the pressure here though, especially looking at the bowling averages of that Somerset attack.

Let's hope so!

I think it's all about Alastair Cook today, it should be a very important innings here

As a side note: What a shame it is this that this game hasn't been afforded full Sky Coverage given what is on the line!


Streaming every ball of the match on the BBC is not too shabby.

Although I have just hexxed Ten Doeschate by firing up the live feed.

Never out......going down.

The umpire's finger went up like it was on a spring!

We only need a 1 run lead on 1st innings and we win if it's a draw.

It won't be a draw we will win by 4 wickets.

If we can get a lead that will force Somerset’s hand. I’m still hopeful - Wheater, Harmer and Beard can all bat. One thing is for sure. it’s been a terrific game so far.

Something I just read.

By scoring 172 runs today, Cook took his first-class average from 47.57 to 47.82.

And that's why Sky should be covering it properly

Essex have got to be please with that, batting for 4 sessions is impressive especially against their attack. 74 overs left today by my calculations, over to you Somerset.

I suspect Somerset will get to tea and give the bat a bit of a throw hoping for a day to bowl Essex out. Really hope the weather doesn't interrupt this. Its compelling stuff.

Lords is flat. Very flat.

Not even Harmer is giving them trouble and he's giving it a rip.

It's a game in the mind now. Discipline and mental toughness. That's it.

Seems that way.

If Somerset miss out again due to the 1st innings score rule, they will really start to believe they have broken several mirrors in the last few years.

I still don't think this is all done and dusted just yet. I'm expecting Somerset will set us around 250 to win, if they can get 'Chef' out early, then this could make for a very intriguing last day. Full credit to both sides, this has been a terrific match with neither side giving an inch. A great advert for the county game.

Certainly game on, cloudy and floodlights on got to favour the bowling side at Lords. Credit to Somerset, I thought the declaration was very bold, but as we all know a draw is no good for them so they might as well throw caution to the wind and just go for it.
