Dont worry another Rhinos to add to the stamped

Need to score quickly here as if its a draw eagles win as they were top of the log, we have 69 overs to bat and then hopefully bowl them out on the final day so we need to be looking at a 200 run lead, hopefully if taylor can stay at the crease the run rate we be fairly high, may be worth promoting Wessels for a quick dash.

Top effort from Rainsford, he is very much a rhythm bowler, when he is good he is very good but when he is bad he is rubbish.

Well neither Lmb or Chigs added to their over night score which seems pretty disappointing
Well batted young Chakabva with a solid 74

[sloandog]

Only just realised that Ryan Butterworth has picked up a couple of wickets to his name. Well bowled

[eugene]

Good to see Greg Lamb showing some form with the bat.

[jamthala]

Lamb is like richardson of kiwis.

If it is a draw, does the trophy goes to Mashonaland for leading the table?

If this is the case, then the Rhino's second innings has been nothing short of appalling. Not even one batsman with a strike rate in excess of 50. They should have approached their second innings as they would a limited overs match... bat for 60 overs, score 350, set Mashonaland a target of 260+.

Have a crack at the Mashonaland batsmen for a few overs before stumps on day 4, and give themselves all of day 5 to bowl them out.

Even if they didn't succeed, even if they were all out for 200 trying to score at a high run rate - at least they would have gone down fighting. 5/266 after 98 overs is pathetic when you playing a must-win match, let alone the grand final.

Woot 100!!! Now can breathe again.
