[Bohemian Toffee]

Had to make some lunch, has Jaiswal finished posing yet?

Another wicket, Balderson, Derbyshire 206-5.

A very good start by Woakes. The bowling from Stokes and Tongue has pretty poor so far though. This is again a bat first wicket all day long. They might well still win, but this approach gives India a chance to win. A big score in the first innings takes the game away from them early and the strength of this England team is the top 7.

 

[Handball]

Tongue is never a Test standard bowler.

Another for Chris Green, one of the best overseas signings in recent years. Derbyshire 226-6.

*Not long now, Derbyshire 227-7, Balderson 3-47.

This is a poor spell of test match bowling by Tongue

Another for Chris Green, one of the best overseas signings in recent years. Derbyshire 226-6.

*Not long now, Derbyshire 227-7, Balderson 3-47.

In a previous era, Balderson is in the Test reckoning.

Terrific player.

Another wicket, Balderson, Derbyshire 206-5.

….7 down now. Surely Lancs first win and (I think) Derby’s 1st defeat.

Suprisingly nippy, and moving the ball today.

Excellent catch as well. Lunch put back now ? Obviously not !

…make that 8, a 4th for Balderson.

One to go, 243-9.
