I always loved a visit to Scarborough for the cricket. I haven't done it for many years but happy memories.
Edited title for this weeks game.
getting to must win sort of game after Essex won last week (against Sussex) to drop us back into the bottom 2. Hopefully Surrey will beat Durham and do us a favour.
Yorks win toss and ask Sussex to bat
good start they are 29/2
cracking catch from Wharton to get the 1st wicket

That is quite steep. Being exiled down south I have ventured to Lords and the Oval to watch Yorks, £20 a ticket there, which seems about right for championship cricket

Crikey. I watched the first few overs and they were all over the place so I went out for me dinner.
can you go down the arcades for the afternoon please and inspire a collapse....
Did you go for a pint early and miss the wicket on ball before lunch too?

No beer involved but I just looked away and missed the fourth one.
Was Ibrahim's 24 ball duck just too riveting?
Keep glancing away and see if you can conjure up a few more wickets this afternoon.
Meanwhile Durham are 101-7
Well he hadn't bowled much this season due to carrying an injury, but took 13 wickets in last weeks match vs Derby and is absolutely on fire with the bat at number 3....
Whilst he can be expensive (as can Bashir) for your "main spinner" (Dawson give you control but with less wicket taking threat) he'd be a great option at 3 instead of a misfiring Pope.
149-6 at tea
Durham all out 156

Yorkshire will leap above their northern neighbours after these matches. Durham have gone to pot of late.

It’s ridiculous, really. Relative to what the two other venues charge, and other counties charge, it makes any comment that people ever say here about the football club pale into insignificance. I always liked Scarborough, but that’s taking the proverbial and you can go off a place given time.
The other thing is that they seem just to be interested in staging Yorkshire matches these days. They’ve pulled their firsts out of the Yorkshire league. For me, the first duty of Scarborough Cricket Club is to the playing of cricket by Scarborough Cricket Club. For so long as they lose sight of that, I’m going to stick to York as my outground.

I just couldn't understand why they completely change tactics for the final wicket.
Spreading the field rather than attacking the number 8 batsman, to attempt to get balls at the number 11 meant that the real fear good factor of 150 for 9 has been lost.

Re Scarborough pricing, their are also excluded from the 4 day, 8 days & 12 day Yorkshire "membership" passes (but York is included). However you could be a Scarborough member for £105, if you were going to go to at least 4 of county cricket there over the summer.
