worry not

you're there. Over soon. Essex will not recover from this position

You could be wrong!

Essex are batting without pressure, so they can hit some 6s. If they start to get close to the score, then all the pressure falls on them.

Yorks still huge favourites.

Do something!

True, one good over and the game lurches to Yorkshire. Things are going dramatically wrong meanwhile.

steady, Arthur, steady!

Should have started drinking earlier.

Sgt. Benco bowling a good half over.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Time to go for a short walk.

[Arthur Crabtree]

Cancel that.

Job done. Good effort by Adam Wheater though.

And the Yorkshire bowlers.

Wonderful performance by Yorkshire, very impressive to shrug off the loss of so many players to England and progress to the business end of the tournament.
Equally impressive from Kent earlier today. I thought the Notts batting recovery made them firm favourites at half time and just for a change I was totally wrong!

hear, hear

never in doubt

Very good from the bowlers. Although should you beat us on Monday (which no doubt would also result in a good bowling performance), then I guess at least two of those bowlers are faced being dropped. Quite a strange scenario that a side could win successive away KO matches to reach a Lords final, only to drop half of the side that did that.

nah.... it's the clear head of a bloke who doesn't have a dog in the fight

[Durhamfootman]

and Yorks will make the final too

Hants have been preparing for the semi final by playing a completely different game and sitting on their @rses

[Durhamfootman]

this is the only competition in Britain where you get penalised for being the best team
