Essex into the Final of Bob Willis cup 13:22 - Sep 8 with 1728 viewsIpswichKnight

The maths bods have crunched the numbers and found that Derbyshire needed to get 200 in the first innings and win to deny Essex a place in the final against Somerset.

Derbyshire were bowled out for 195, Lancy-Lancy-Lancy- Lancashire!

Awesome news. Just heard myself.

Somerset would be a properly tough game.

Assumption is to make an ass out of you and me. Those who assume they know you, when they don't are just guessing. Those who assume and insist they know are daft and in denial. Those who assume, insist, and deny the truth are plain stupid. Those who assume, insist, deny the truth and tell YOU they know you (when they don't) have an IQ in the range of 35-49.

I'm looking to see if there are spectators allowed....

We should have a TWTD contingent....

Have just seen that there will be no spectators at the final!

What a shame.

Getting very interesting between Somerset and Worcester. Basically a shoot out for the final. Somerset could fall just short yet again.

Apparently we are little premature if it’s a tie on points it will not be decided on wins but net run rate.

A terrific effort from the Essex boys once again. Somerset or Worcester, who would you prefer? I'm still smarting from Micheal Atherton's belittling dig at us the other night on Sky Sports, perhaps that was to wind Nasser up? Btw how are Lancashire getting on Micheal?

It just wouldn't be county cricket without Somerset ballsing it up in some way and ending with me banging my head against a table repeatedly...

Would be nice to be in contention.....as a Surrey member I am celebrating our first win in a year in any competition.

I'd still back Somerset to defend 200 plus in final innings.

As a supporter though, I can appreciate that isn't as straightforward as that!

Hmm. You're a Somerset fan.

This explains a lot... *cough-JONAH-cough*

Worcestershire's 6th wicket down, last ball before lunch. Somerset's game to lose now.

Ha!

Nope, I'm strictly Essex when it comes to county cricket.

Major soft spot for Somerset I have to admit. When I first got into the game, they had Botham, Richards, Garner as the star attraction. Peter Denning at the top of the order, Peter Roebuck, Vic Marks, Jeremy Lloyds and Colin Dredge whose bowling action still remains the oddest I have ever seen.

Stubborn 8th wicket partnership here.

Worcs still need 70 odd.

The two best sides and it felt like that would be the final from the outset. Should be a corker and can see a tight low scoring one.

As much as I will root for Essex, I wouldnt begrudge Somerset one bit.

Somerset could match what we did last season with a Championship (of sorts) and T20 Blast double.

Colin Dredge - The Demon of Frome. So named by Alan Gibson.
The Dredges at one stage were able to put out a whole team of 11 Dredges.

Come on Somerset, county of my birth.

Thanks for your magnanimous comments re Somerset, gainsborough.
