(glad i am only getting snippetts')

No I couldn't imagine they'd be too keen on a five day game that nobody wins

Lunch is served at 172 - 4, a lead of 59 runs

With 69 overs still to play we still could see a result in this game, but it looks unlikely

We know how things can change huh CotD'?

 

[rbkwp]

just noticed 102 all out
