Obviously posting later, but 320 will be a stretch, 350 no chanceLooks like we’ll need 350 on this pitch and short boundaries too.
Can Livingstone do it again?

Too late for Lancs, I think. Notts are well clear. Thought they'd win this game after getting nearly 400 in the second innings but Somerset are rattling along - wouldn't mind them beating stuck-up Surrey to their first CC title.
Edit: Wait; 3 wickets down, it aint over till - do they still have fat ladies in Lancashire?
Agreed. There needs even more incentive to win games. 16-8 ratio is the same as the old 2 points for a win system in football.Somerset 5 down.
Lancs have been poor but I don't like the points system. Lancs could conceivably be relegated after winning 4 games but Warwickshire stay up winning 1. There's something not right about that.
What do you think about the bonus points system? I don't like it, I'd just award a small amount of points for first innings lead.Agreed. There needs even more incentive to win games. 16-8 ratio is the same as the old 2 points for a win system in football.
It’s not fair as matches are played in different conditions. I like the first innings lead idea.What do you think about the bonus points system? I don't like it, I'd just award a small amount of points for first innings lead.
