What odds on a tie, Surrey would take that!

Morkel supposedly assured his captain that he'd win the game for Surrey if they got a lead of 120+

Forgot the CC wasn't finished!

Instead it's ending with a thriller...

Blimey 9 down.

Can't be many teams who've lost after leaving by 400 plus on first innings! 8 runs required to avoid it!

How on earth are we throwing this away?! Sucicidal from the batsmen...Tendo needs to take a gamble and hit a boundary, if do it in singles then Quinn will get himself out

They're saying it will be a record comeback.

Morkel has 3 balls to Quinn.

2 to win!

Never in doubt.

Yep! Incredible game. Have a 400 run lead after the first innings and end up scrambling to victory with one wicket left!

If we haven't had signed Vijay when we did, this game could easily have been the one we would have needed to stay up, let alone finish 2nd lol!

Revolutionary proposal to solve low scores.

Interesting idea. Colly said the otter day that the kookaburra balls used in one day matches are better for batting and the reason why one day pitches at the Riverside appear better than Championship pitches - he said the difference was the ball.
