Thank god for the Lancs women. They have qualified for the T20 finals whereas the men are on course for another loss.

The men are a complete disgrace to the county.

Lancashire were promotion favourites, fucking lol

Appointed themselves promotion favourites. Was never realistic!

As widely predicted/feared, the test didn't go into the final day. Not sure what good that did for either side. I guess the Zimbabwe cricket board might have made a few bob out of it.

Lancashire should slump to defeat sometime tomorrow.

You missed "innings" out.

 

[xgorton]

It's catching,that's the trouble when you play at OT the team are shite.

My only hope is a change in format will bring a change in fortune.

Sixfer for Bashir. Whilst I don't think he's the next Graham Swann by any means, he looks a tidy bowler, better than any other young spinner in the CC currently.

Youngest English Test bowler to 50 wickets

This LCCC are officially the worst I have ever seen. A disgrace to the county.

Is Jimmy Anderson injured ? He played the last Lancs game but not involved in this one.

Don't think he is mate, I was watching on the first morning, and it was said during the commentary that he had travelled with the squad but was having his recovery from injury managed.

They've probably given up on the CC altogether now and want him fit for the blast.

Might get worse, it was mentioned on commentary that Harris is expected to miss the next 2 CC games because of some family issues back in Australia.

Might scrape to 150 without him as long as the openers can put on 70 for the first wicket.

 

[nmc]

30 for 2 - I doubt we can save this game. Making Leicestershire look good!

It's race to the bottom for both OT teams.

Please don’t link the two together like that - makes me feel unclean!

Lancashire CCC - utter pants.

Not that good.

Jesus, I've just seen that Harry Brook catch! I think that is one the best slip catches I've ever seen. Never mind the opposition, wouldn't matter whether it's Zimbabwe or Australia or India. It is so, so difficult. The nature of his leap — and he's right at the top of it, at full extension — means that he's turning away from his own catch, and his hand is turning outward from his body. Nobody in the world could have blamed him for dropping that, or just plain missing it.

Loved the keeper's reaction. He's just trying to follow the ball to the boundary and then all of a sudden realises that he caught it.
