I know that grounds soak up the rain better than they used to do when I was a regular at OT, but I was thinking more in terms of the rain that has already fallen really. Tomorrow’s weather will be what it is. |

I see Gloucester have Covid so our group will be decided on average pts per game.

By my calculation we get a top three finish if we beat Essex on Thursday.

By my calculation we get a top three finish if we beat Essex on Thursday. A win should lead to a home Knockout game. Unless Essex win their next game by a large margin and then the final game is very close |

Another way of looking at it is I reckon we need to match both Worcestershire and Hampshire's result in their last game to stay ahead of them. Thankfully they both have to play Durham in their last game. As the Glos Middx game was cancelled I think that makes it hard for them to catch Lancs. A win should lead to a home Knockout game. Unless Essex win their next game by a large margin and then the final game is very close Essex thrashing Sussex has put an end to that theory. Will now have to be a decent sized win to get a home game. |
