i usually follow the scores at work, with a window behind whatever I'm doing.
www.skysports.com has a great commentary section for the England National Team matches. Its better than the Beebs

well, Middlesex has put together a decent reply, and by that I mean they probably won't have to follow on.
could this one be heading for a draw?

Interesting, Middlesex declare just after avoiding the follow-on.
Is that common to declare despite being behind?

interesting, do they think they can stop Glamorgan and then win it, don't think that will happen. I'm guessing a draw

County Championship D1, Southgate (day four):
Middlesex 435-4d & 406-3 beat Glamorgan 584-3d & 256-3d
They won it. I guess Glamorgan went for the win and it backfired.
Middlesex won with 13 balls remaining.

This game was played just up the road from where I live. I decided that because of all of the runs scored on the first three days that it would be a waste of time going for the last day!!!

I'm from Derbyshire :(
Not a great couple of seasons. Still looking for a first home win in three years now. Been bad ever since Cork got a recall, then left.

Matt Elliot is out for the rest of the season, and Sourav Ganguly is back off to India soon. In other words ... Glamorgan are going down.
This has been an absolutely disastrous season for us. Really missing Kaspro and S Jones.

not that anyone cares, but Middlesex is getting owned by Sussex. Sussex batted first, hit 500+, and then bowled MIddlsex out for 128. For the follow on, Middlesex was at 44-0 and are not at 45-3.

well Hampsire cruised in the FA Cup style C & G Trophy Final at Lords, their first appearance since '92. they beat Yorkshire by 8 wickets (199-2 in 39.9 ov, 197-9 50 ov).
they also did this without Pietersen and Warne.

Go Middlesex! All they need is 400 runs (within 130 overs) and to bowl Surrey out within 130 overs, and they will clinch the spot in Division 1. Surrey need to win and avoid both the above to make it.
