Yes they seem very confident at the moment. Abbot and Abbas a formidable opening bowling partnership and will be good if Crane does well.

Weatherley, Alsop, Vince, Dawson & Northeast can all bat a bit albeit often lacking consistency. Best Hants team since the days of Mascarenhas & Pothas.

Lancashire 203-5, lead by 331, Croft 58 n.o, two run outs.

Croft needs a big score - both run outs were his fault.

Croft needs a big score - both run outs were his fault.

.....wonder when the declaration will come, suspect they will want a few wickets before cop.

Good stuff from Parkinson. Couple of chances this over

Saq Mahmood and Parkinson will win us the Ashes in a whitewash

Northants close on 59-3, an excellent day for Lancashire.

Northants close on 59-3, an excellent day for Lancashire.

.....100-6, surely Lancs can finish this off.

Hants home and hosed by lunchtime.

Some great bowling by Ollie Robinson for Sussex.Match figures of 13 for 128. Just hope our very inexperienced team don’t blow the run chase.
On a separate note,I am really enjoying watching the cricket on you tube streams.Also the local radio commentators are hilarious,not sure they mean to be but well worth listening to.
