Good day for us, we need 54 runs to win tomorrow with six wickets in hand and a bit of batting to come.

Middlesex close yesterday on 200-4. Heres hoping that the heavy rain forecast for today comes early enough

Yorkshire win by 4 wickets - Hampshire up next, win that and there could be something riding on the Nottinghamshire game.

Now, if only we could convince Lancashire to put in a couple of performances against Notts...

You wont be saying that when we've won 4 in a row and go into the final game of the season needing a handful of points to become champions

At which point it'll rain for 4 days solid, leading to the same old excu.., sorry explanations?

Good to see Lancashire doing their best to deny Yorkshire the title, setting Notts only 260 to win in two full sessions...

If you don't win enough matches then who's fault is that??? Makes a nice change for Lancs to actually make a game of it at last this season. Anyway the most glorious piece news of the cricketing season has been made just after the close of play at Trent Bridge today... www.lccc.co.uk/index.php?p=news&id=3836

Well if we can't win it we might aswell make sure you can't either

Pieterson signs for Surrey according to his Twitter.

And that's Yorkshire into the semis of the 40-over league. Lovely shot from Shahzad to win it. Four needed, so launch it eight rows back over square leg. Nice.

On loan for the remaining two Championship games and two 40 overs games this season. www.britoval.com/news/surrey-sig ... end-season Personally I'd rather have Owais Shah, who has just been released by Middlesex, and whose availability for county games would be more likely in the long term.

Derbyshire win vs Gloucestershire despite being bowled out for just 44 in the first innings.

Gloucestershire required around 130, even on a bowler-friendly pitch, sensible batting with the time left should see that easily attained. Instead they get skittled for 70.

And nice to see Lancashire batter someone when it doesn't matter!

KP scored 38 from 33 on Surrey debut

Yorkshire have made an approach to re-sign Ryan Sidebottom apparently, probably be a decent enough acquisition if he isn't going to be in the England ODI set-up for much longer, if he is then we'd face the prospect of losing three of our attack to England duty, which wouldn't make much sense to me.

Before being undone by..... yes, that's right, a left-arm spinner.

Didn't quite end up battering them. Won with one ball to spare!

Given the next set of games (Notts/Yorks, Som/Lancs) Durham beating Nottinghamshire yesterday leaves the door slightly ajar, if we can beat Notts it's all on.

Nottinghamshire 202
Somerset 180
Yorkshire 177
Lancashire 171

Notts v Yorks
Somerset v Lancs

Durham v Somerset
Lancs v Notts
Yorks v Kent

Some finish coming up, will take a miracle for Lancs to pinch it but you never know

I'll be genuinely delighted for you if you win your last two matches.

As long as we do too (and you don't gain 6 bonus points more than we do!).

Belting start for Yorks at Trent Bridge, Notts are 4/2.

Weather might stop a result one way or the other anyway.

Cracking start
