O/T:- Notts CCC and The Bob Willis Trophy

[Elite_Pie]

Not sure if Cricinfo is broke it says Notts didn't lose ?!

Looks like the weather saved us! If Lancashire had set us a target of 90 to chase in the fourth innings, we know it would have been too much.

There is free live coverage on the Trent Bridge website of the T20 game up at Durham - Notts currently being bashed around a bit.

That was an entertaining way to pass the afternoon when the rain came here. Durham seemed to have set a decent target in very windy conditions but Notts chased it down with ease. At last we saw a brilliant innings from Joe Clark, he was on 94 when we needed 3 runs to win but cleared the ropes with the winning hit for a well deserved century. Hopefully a turning point for him and the team.

England's T20 game with Pakistan is being shown live on BBC1 this afternoon, the first time they have shown a live England game since 1999.

Obviously the commentary will be biased!

I look forward to seeing how the BBC present the game; I wonder who will run the commentary as it's a long time since they did. Sky have done a great job with their presentation since they took over and it'll be interesting to see how the BBC compare. Talking about being biased here's a thought; our friends the Aussies have arrived, I'd be surprised if these lads take the idiotic 'knee' when we play them.

Watching on Sky

I refuse to pay for Sky on principle so can't compare, but I enjoyed the BBC coverage. It was a really good performance from England to chase such a big target, an ideal game for the BBC to make a comeback.

I wish I could refuse to pay for the BBC on principal without going to court!!

Great performance and not a surprise from a very good 2nd strength side.

Agreed.

Great T20 win by Notts today against a strong Yorkshire side, if only we could play with the same backbone in the Bob Willis Championship
