Damn; he was looking good for a double ton as well.
Just cramp, thankfully.Stoke retired hurt. His groin was troubling him. Right decision as we will need him to bowl.
It’s looking good. This pair scoring at a decent clip. Boho and Jennings.Nice comfortable victory coming up for Lancs.
Cramp in the groin. That takes me back…Just cramp, thankfully.
Er......Smith and Dawson can both score runs.
Easy easy.Lancs win by 9 wickets
Ok if you say soAs they will be when a draw is agreed in 90 minutes…
They were going at five an over at one point they still four an over now is still very good better than most teams do!Ok. Can it now be said that Bazball has been officially abandoned, or is this a new, savvier version of it?
Also: does Root have an argument for being England's greatest ever test batsman? I know there's serious competition — going all the way back to Denis Compton!
(Just looked up Compton's Wiki, incidentally — I confess that I was unaware that he was a seriously good footballer. Don't know how that escaped me all these years…).
I presume that nobody on here saw W.G. Grace? Calling @oakiecokie maybe?
I think you’ll find my doom and gloom post was the catalyst for that victory ;-)Ok if you say so
Apparently - it was a decade or so before my time - Grace was to cricket what Donald Trump is to golf - an utter cheat. He refused to be or until he decided to be out. Utter **** by all accountsOk.

Yes the good news is that the team in second place, who they haven’t catch, is Glamorgan and we have to play them twice. The bad news is 2 of our 4 remaining games are at OT where I think there’s been a lot of drawn games this seasonLancs could still go up yet
