Did anyone hear them mention on Sky that Yorkshire have been 3 down in the CC this season for less than 60 on no less than 14 occasions. They don't deserve to win it with that record.
Here's a question - is there a point at which Yorkshire will accept that they cannot win the game and therefore the title? If the answer is "no" then Somerset cannot win the title whereas at any other time Yorkshire would be doing their best to draw if they can't win the game.
We will find the answer to this shortly.
And the answer is that Middlesex agreed to set a run a ball target providing Yorkshire never gave up the chase. So Somerset were always unlikely to win the title.

66 off 6. Surely Yorkshire will do the right thing but I suspect they won't.
Middlesex odds on now
Think Middlesex will do it but I want the draw!
Feel so sorry for Somerset.
Absolutely unbelievable.
Meanwhile at the other end of the table strong batting by Durham means they beat Hants who get relegated along with Notts, saving Lancs.
