    O/T Cricket Es*** v Yorks

    Final games of 2017 County Championship start today (Monday). Yorkshire need to pick up another six points (according to the experts) against Es*** to be mathematically safe from relegation, if all other results go against us. That figure is likely to be reduced during the day - for example if Somerset were bowled out for less than 200. we would only need one more point.

    Ryan Sidebottom is in the Yorkshire 14 man squad, but will probably have more fitness checks this morning. Although Yorkshire fielded a five man pace attack in the previous fixture against Warks and won, there are likey to be some team changes

    Sidebottom not fit enough to play , so same team as previous game, except Carver, the young spin bowler replaces Bresnan.
    Es*** are batting and are 14-0

    Zummerzet collapsing.
    We'll probably be mathematically safe by stumps tonight

    From 206 for 4 to 236 all out is quite a collapse.

    Folded like a pack of cards (standing on end)
    They can only get the same amount of points as us and that assumes we won't get any more points.

    We're safe now

    Somerset got just one batting bonus point... so can only equal our points total now. It's still raining at Chelmsford and we need to take one more wicket to be a point beyond the maximum that Somerset can get
