....Lancashire 315 all out, could be a difficult last few days.

Good start for Lancashire, Northamptonshire 22-3, lead by 149.

Northamptonshire 205-6, leading by 332. It's going to be a long day tomorrow for Lancashire.

I wonder if they'll declare, it'd make for an interesting final day ?

Not sure how you didn't win that Hants. 8 down with best part of 28 overs left and Warks force a draw.
Hants that.

Lancashire, needing an unlikely 391 to win, are 105-2.

Tea : Lancashire 165-3, only a further 226 needed. One piece of good news, Hameed 52 not out.

Dane Vilas' average batting at 6 now 70.88 , excellent.

About time hameed got a score! Good draw that given the total they got first innings

Back to the top of the table which as you say given the first innings total was a result.Hameed's average is now 30ish maybe a drop down the order another place might help him.Thank god for Vilas.

A nice tribute.

Lancashire playing their latest county match. Sussex won the toss and are batting, and probably regretting it : 95-5, going from 77-0 to 88-5. Now everybody's favourite Aussie Glen Maxwell 3- 25, Matt Parkinson 2-11. Lot of injuries to the bowlers, out at the moment - Anderson, Mahmood, Lester and now Liam Livingstone out for a while with an intercostal muscle strain.

Looks like the Old Trafford pitch is taking a smidgen of turn. Sussex 115-8, Maxwell 4-36, Parkinson 4-20.

 

[summerisle]

Sussex 127 all out, Maxwell 4-41, Parkinson 15.5-6-23-6. Lost 10 wickets for 50 runs.

Excellent start for Lancashire, 50-0.

Lancashire 138-1, 11 runs ahead.
