Kent & Essex 1st and 2nd favourites for promotion... all I can say is I hope nobody had any dosh on it.
As usual, Essex clearly only care about limited overs cricket and have been decimated by international call-ups/IPL and must have the most pointless overseas player ever (can't even get in the team).
Sam out lbw for 99 to McDonald with the final ball of the day. Close of play score 376-3 with van Jaarsveld 17*. Great performance by all!
We haven't been able to say that very often in the last few seasons. Let's hope they haven't used up all their runs for the season a la Key against Lancs last year!
Just got back from the T20 - a great day only spoiled by the result.......
Trescothick was a class above and it was a very one sided match which kind of killed the atmosphere a bit, but since it was such a nice day no one was that bothered in the end!

Derbyshire won toss and batted in a 4 day match.
200-1
Yet another thrashing in the offing:-(
Derbyshire 1st innings 460 all out (Shaw 5-118)
Kent 1st innings latest 79-2 (Key and Denly for not many needless to say!)
A good recovery from 370/3 overnight.
Kent all out 352 109 behind.
Better than I expected!
Kent 68/1, need another 87 to win...
Excellent Stuff!
A win with maximum points and runs for Denly!
Enjoy it while we can!
Tempted to make the trip to T/Wells for the Friday evening T20 match....
Anyone else going ?

50 min queue for beer, though - savage!
presumably you can just turn up sunday - no advance tickets needed?
is there parking at the ground?
