…..it could come to a point where they’ll be looking to declare. You’d think they’ll want a lead of 300, a bit of rain about tomorrow but probably dry in the South.

You could be right - could all change with the new ball though. Strange to see Croft bowling while Wells hasn't bowled.
Gubbins batting well again, a bit like Compton did against us. A few years since he was tipped to open for England - batting on that Lords pitch every other week did him no favours. Brown looking like a shrewd signing, despite that dropped catch yesterday!
My money's on a Rob Jones/Danny Lamb century partnership to steer Lancy home tomorrow!

Close : Lancashire 9-0. Tough day tomorrow.

Yes a draw would be a good result now but it's still a good pitch - good start needed and then bat solidly until tea and have a look at it.
To be fair to Danny Lamb he bowled a lot better in his spell after they took the new ball and deserved his wickets. Still shouldn't be playing though!

It's raining in Southampton, and looks like it's set in for a good few hours.

I've switched to watching Derby v Glamorgan to see if ex-Lancs Brook Guest can score his second century in the match. Looks a much improved player, which just goes to show how some can flourish if given a run in the team.
Same could be said, even more so, for Jordan Clark at Surrey.

I had a look at the weather radar, looks grim.
