Superb innings from Crawley
Well done England openers, barring bad weather tomorrow, should be an easy win.

[Paddingtonwolf]

Top four of that list very good indeed. The remainder rather sub-standard. Lees was crap this morning. Should have been out at least four times before he finally perished.

 

[Kenny]

Should have been out at least four times before he finally perished.

He had 3 yesterday, inc the first ball where he should have been taken

[Doctor Doog]

Like any vets team, it's made up of people who still have the inclination at that age and whose bodies are vaguely capable of getting through the game.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I'm amazed Tremlett can even get his arm over. Beast.

 

[Carrotdude]

Bloody hell!

 

[Sniffer]

Tom Curran, who has somehow avoided playing County Cricket for nearly four full seasons has just hit his maiden ton in the competition.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Not to suggest that Somerset are playing for a draw at Edgbaston, but Lammonby currently has 38 off 148 balls and Abell 40 off 104.

A draw is no good to either side really.

 

[Tony Towner]

It's better for them but Warwickshire won't score 200 so Somerset will still win tomorrow if the weather holds

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Draw puts us above Kent and we have them last match
