They were slagging Middlesex off for gifting it to Yorkshire when they declaredI bet they are gutted in Somerset
I know they have, and I don't have any problem with it in general. But Middlesex could have set that target by batting positively in the afternoon session. They had 7 wickets left with a great batsman set on a hundred, they could have got 140 in 33 overs and gave Yorkshire the same situation as they did with the deal. I thought their attitude was a disgrace to be honest. I presume they set out to wait for the deal from the start of the day.Great day all round for cricket. Agreeing declaration totals has been around for ever, no point moaning now.
