    NZ only 26 away from their biggest total against Pakistan, but the wickets keep falling - Anderson just gone ...

    *Official* Emerging Nations Cricket Thread

    So PNG win their first game, overcoming HK with 11 overs to spare - though at 76-5 chasing 203 it was looking dicey for them. The fifth ODI team to win their first game, the identities of the other four might surprise some ...

    David Frith Presents.....

    I know it might seem like some of us, especially the book team, fawn over him somewhat but IMO David Frith should at the very least have got an OBE (I assume he'd be eligible) for his services to cricket. Certainly they outweigh those of any number of spineless administrators - he really is a...

    Just so you know, I'm reading Field of Shadows, about the 1937 Gentlemen of Worcester tour of Nazi Germany (!!) - should be able to get something to you by the weekend. My summer reading hasn't really included anything cricket-related.

    Your man Balcombe has joined Surrey I see. Seems to have bursts of form - did very well in a brief spell at Kent.

    Yorkshire on the brink of a ninth win - six overs to take the last wicket.

    Somerset managing to provide an odd ending to the season, going down in a heap at Headingley. Not sure how many overs they have left though.

    'Indoors if wet' What's the earliest they can shake hands here, 4.30? Might as well put a lid on it before much longer.

    Will look forward to seeing the Red Rose county at the Oval next year. You up for that Fred? You're probably no further from London than I am. I'll keep an eye out for the fixtures.

    Yeah, Anderson you can understand (although he would probably have made the difference here) but ridiculous that Finn couldn't play when England have hardly needed him all summer. Middlesex 210 on with 35 overs left, if it comes down to a ten-an-over thrash Lancs will still go for it, surely...

    Cradock will get another county hopefully, will be a shame if he doesn't. I like to see young leggies getting success in county cricket but Waller and Beer haven't really pushed on it has to be said. Big congrats to Hampshire and all their supporters, Pothas among them. Having been top-four for...

    Nope, Hampshire are up. Essex third again, and Derbyshire probably fourth within an hour or two.

    ***Official*** English Domestic Season 2014

    Several sides building up big leads in the second innings - and Hants, Derby and Gloucs probably all have enough already. Don't see anyone chasing down 300+ in the next couple of days. And a Tavare 100 at Canterbury would certainly attract comment from the locals if it comes off.

    ***Official*** English Domestic Season 2014

    Well, quite. You'd think they'd back the lower middle order to get another 50 - 350 still seems a long way off though, and they'd need to go at more than four an over from now.

    100s for Compton and Trott.

    ***Official*** English Domestic Season 2014

    Hampshire not enforcing the follow-on, they must have confidence in the weather. Having seen the Essex score they must know that they need to win now.

    ***Official*** English Domestic Season 2014

    Leics save the follow on and are all out next ball. Charlie Shreck having the season of his life with the bat though - 328 runs at 20 makes for a pretty good number 11. Come to think of it he's outperformed most of the top order. Seventh wicket goes down at Cardiff.

    ***Official*** English Domestic Season 2014

    Essex past 300 now, so, assuming they finish the job against Worcs, Hants need to win to go up. Glamorgan looking likely to save the follow-on though at 134-5. Lancashire solid but still a long way short of 350. Going at under three an over, they could do with upping the tempo really...

    First wicket for Brett D'Oliveira, but Essex have two of the three points they need. Rudolph and Cooke gone at Cardiff.

    ***Official*** English Domestic Season 2014

    Oh dear ... Leicester. 29-4 needing 140 to save the follow-on, what are the chances? I guess they can't wait for the season to end. Looks like they had a delayed start at Chelmsford, only had three overs there. Hants take an early wicket.
