What, nothing about Lancs in 2011? Not just the final thriller in Taunton where Lancs were set what looked like a very difficult target on a 4th day Bunsen (after a Gary Keedy runout!) but strolled it, with half a dozen other matches that season that went down to the wire e.g. Kegsie taking the last Hants wicket at Aigburth with four minutes to go (9-51!!) or beating the Tykes, at Aigburth again, by hitting 121 off 15 overs and winning with four balls to spare ('Roofie' Maharoof's finest hour). Glen Chapple bowling through injuries that meant he could hardly walk. And much much more.
