County Cricket 2017 season

unlikely........... or Somerset would have had points deductions at every home game for the last 2 seasons

and Lancs in their championship winning year, of course.

[Alviro Patterson]

ECB are so inconsistent in awarding points deductions for any offence you just don't know.

[Durhamfootman]

my advice to any team.... don't call Strauss a canute... that's a one way street..... going the wrong way down a one way street will get you a shed load of points deductions

[st_brendy]

I'd be very surprised if it happened. But given the state of the table, I'm sure Colin Graves wouldn't be against Middlesex getting a deduction...

[Arthur Crabtree]

Two wickets to get 17 runs to go past the fo though. If that happens, a draw must be favourite. Though Surrey can't be ruled out, a declaration might give Yorks an opening..

I thought 150 is the follow on deficit in CC?

It is indeed-Yorkshire following on 198 behind.

Oops. I was looking at that earlier on and remembered it was 150, and then later I forgot I'd remembered.

It's one of those things I can never remember! That and the cut off for the bonus points.

Is that the same Colin Graves who was spotted outside the Oval with a crossbow a few weeks back?

Ssh-that's where he hides the Graves family trust fortune.

He was interviewed yesterday and said he'd been offered a one year extension but hadn't yet decided if he would play on.
