I don't wish to tempt fate but I think Kent might be about to win a county championship game!

Done it already as Sussex have to play Hampshire. One more win guarantees top spot.

Well done Blakey btw :2thumb:

Yeah, he pulled us through there, didn't think we were going to make it.

Got Friday afternoon off, so me and the old man are popping up to Tunbridge Wells for the Glamorgan game, hopefully seal top spot there.

Gloucestershire just beaten Hampshire by 5 wickets. Best Glamorgan in our last game and we should go through.

Better book my tickets for that game quick, even if it does mean going to Wales ;)

Shit night for Gloucestershire so far. Glamorgan beat Kent by 1 run, and Surrey, Essex and Hampshire should win their games comfortably.

Great win for Lancs last night - they were in real trouble at one point. Superb all-round performance from Steve Croft; excellent with the bat and ball, some great captaincy and topped it off with a stunning catch!

I have a feeling that Notts are going to sneak 4th place though...

Absolutely no idea how Kent lost that game.

We were dominant from our first over, the Glamorgan celebrations said it all, they had no right to win that really. Good entertainment though.

Someone must have told Daniel Bell-Drummond that there may be a couple of places available in England's top order.

Scored 81 from 71 balls and 15 fours.

Ashwell Prince (229 not out) and Alviro Petersen (270 not out) are breaking all sorts of records down at Colwyn Bay. Reports suggest they're playing beautifully but it's apparently a remarkably flat deck, which does Glamorgan no favours as they could really do with the win. Therefore, the draw has to be favourite, but full batting points and denying Glamorgan any bowling points is more than useful.

These guys have played 484 First Class games between them, including 102 test matches for South Africa and both have scored thousands and thousands of runs throughout their career. However, if Prince manages 9 more runs then they'll have both scored their highest ever score in the same innings. No matter how flat the pitch, this is an extraordinary partnership.

Apparently, the largest ever partnership for any wicket in the County Championship is 555. They're not that far off that, you know...

Prince has gone for 261 (from 258 balls!!!). He managed to beat his previous best of 257. 606/3.

The partnership was 501. Stunning stuff.

Another easy win for yorkshire. 34 points clear with a game in hand, still unbeaten too. Completely dominating the league this year despite constantly losing players to england duty. Root, lyth , ballance , bairstow , rashid and plunkett.

Yorkshire : the finest county in the land

Fair enough. Better you than Lancashire, although they are likely to win D2

Ballance with an almost run a ball 69 with only two 4's and one 6, fair play to him for bouncing back.
