Gruelling and cruel
Middlesex won by four wickets with three balls to spare. A cruel way to end a gruelling five-day yomp the length and breadth of the UK for the Bears.
They are also nursing another serious injury blow. Rikki Clarke has a broken hand and, although a full diagnosis is still to be made, is likely to be out for at least six weeks. It's a blow to the team and a cruel one for the all-rounder just as he had found form with his bowling.

That is very bad news indeed..gutted.
We had been enjoying Rikki's bowling of late.
I have an awful feeling we are going to struggle especially after today's (well yesterday's now) failure to finish off Middlesex.
That is really bad luck just as he was just starting to fit in nicely.
