Pro40 Play-off game - the permutations
The Pro40 competition finishes this weekend, apart from the small matter of the 3rd vs 3rd bottom play-off which is the last match of the TFC competition. So, if you have the odd transfer remaining, which teams might you consider for the extra match?
Division 1: Three teams remain in contention, but the position will be decided by the result of just one match. If Northants win then Gloucestershire will contest the play-off. If it is a tie or a no result (please don't let rain ruin this end of the competition too) then Northants will stay in the third from bottom place. If Essex win then they will travel to division 2's third place team (assuming that there is no way that Gloucestershire's superior net run rate can be overhauled).
Division 2: Again three teams are battling to host the play-off. Kent must sit and watch, hoping neither Surrey nor Middlesex win their matches. If they don't, Canterbury will host the play-off. If Middlesex triumph at title chasing Somerset and Surrey don't win then it will be in North London, while if Surrey win at Leicester and Middlesex don't win the match will be in South London. If both sides win then net run rate will come into play with Middlesex currently in a slightly better position, but it's close enough to go either way should either victory margin be emphatic.
