Rehan showing his ability with the bat and at a decent strike rate

He's such a talent let's hope we can keep him for as long as possible.

This pitch is so dead. Would be very disappointing if we lose this. 

With the reduced point for draws and the Bazball fashion, wouldn’t surprise me if Yorks give us a chance provided get the 35 runs to avoid the follow in.

 

Thought Handscomb was very unlucky with his lbw decision. 

[LBTufty]

Handscomb's lbw decision was an absolute shocker, the ball would have sailed way over fourth stump

[lanefox]

Avoiding the follow on is a positive, be nice if we can get it below 100

[The People's Hero]

Lovely 50 for Chris Wright. Didn't think he bowled brilliantly; although arguably overworked as usual, so nice to see him get a 50.

 

In fairness, the pitch hasn't give much help to any of the bowlers, so maybe I'm being a little harsh, but felt both his line and length were uncharacteristically 'off'.

 

 

[Lionator]

35-3, surely we can’t? 

[MaidstoneFox]

County doing better than City today, long time since that has happened.

[Cakey]

Good chance of getting something out of the game. If Yorkshire are as good as they seem to think they are 30 mins of batting. They will probably bat longer. 

 

We can bat the day out.

Amazing what actually showing a bit of fight can do.

[Tommy Fresh]

Anytime I see Harris make a score for Gloucestershire it just winds me up that we didnt replace him last season. Having Handscomb and then Rahane will highlight just how much we missed a quality overseas batsman last year.

This is on

[Guest Lako42]

Enjoying this mornings play 

[Lionator]

Want us to go full BazBall here. If we lose, we lose. 

[katieakita]

78-0 at lunch something like 71 overs left. A positive is we are still in the game at lunch on the last day after conceding 517 first innings

Sorry what is BazBall? What have I missed?

Great pro. Gives his all year in year out even in a losing team. Some of the players at City could take some inspiration from his attitude.

C’mon County 

 

Glad to see Ackerman start the season well

[Tommy Fresh]

Fancy Rehan having a pop with the bat here

Basically the way England have played since McCullum has been coach (nicknamed Baz McCullum). 

[MaidstoneFox]

Could a famous victory on here. Ball doing nothing, these two well set, 8 wickets in hand.

[Kinowe Soorie]

What the?

Bad light towards the end probably 

[when_you're_smiling]

That Ackerman decision wasn’t as bad as the Hanscombe one. Still annoying though just before tea.

 

Still a fair bit of batting to come but a half injured tail too.

[Ian Nacho]

Doing well. Could be a getting a draw at the least.
