v Lancashire LV Champs at Trent Bridge Day 3

It’s very difficult as to where this match his heading; a battle for contrivance or bonus points accumulation as only 77 balls were possible as play did not commence until 1630 due to intermittent drizzle. In the brief passage of play punctuated by a 10 minute bad light stoppage Hogg and Kerrigan added a further 49 runs as their last wicket partnership has now added an unbroken 70 runs. Notts took the new ball (Gurney and Carter) immediately but on the slow wicket never really looked like taking a wicket. The only occurrence of any note was Adams falling over in his bowling stride and appearing to sprain his ankle, he hobbled off after brief physio treatment. The General completed his over. Read missed a trick by not bowling Patel as the important consideration was not the runs conceded but the amount of overs Notts would face in order obtain maximum batting points now a maximum of 96. A dry day is forecast by Kirkwood and co for tomorrow.  MAG
