A comfortable win for Lancashire by 7 wickets.
Jennings 42, Livingstone 41 off 21 balls.

What can we take from this?
The aussies have a class bowling attack, but they are all well over 30. Who is coming through?
That top 3 likely will not be the one in place come the ashes.
They play at a slowish pace, could grind you down, but could also give you time to get back into the game

Sad that South Africa won't play a single test at home in the 2025/6 season.

That was a superb advertisement for Test Cricket.
Both ball and bat had an equal chance, lowish scoring, a full house, good officiating and everybody behaving themselves.
Cricket is always more interesting when the highest score in a match is 250-300.
Pleased to see South Africa win and the prizes get shared around.

Mind, you can't beat a bit of over-enthusiastic club Cricket on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon.
Tea and sandwiches, sunshine, the click of leather on willow, the cheers of the crowd for a single, the polite clapping when someone treads on his own stumps and the sight of some old fool called Bill or Desmond in his 60's risking serious injury taking first strike against some ex West Indian fast bowler in his early 40's playing for 10 quid and all the vol-au-vents he can eat.
It's what made England and the Empire great.
