    I asked the very same question to my cricket boff mate the other day, just can't remember, sorry!

    I'd still go with 150 and 200 tho.

    For a match that is 5 days or more (ie. Test Matches) a lead of 200 runs is required whilst a 4 day match (ie. County Championship) a lead of 150 is required.

    LOL - bloody costly information in my case.

    Never trust a yorkshireman - unless his initials are G.O.D or AB.
