Rain at Taunton but ex Notts boys in action at Grantham
Day two at Taunton, 15.4 overs were bowled all day, due to light rain, drizzle and poor light.
Given the unfavourable conditions it's little surprise that Notts lost a further couple of wickets; 48/3 at stumps.

Broad injects excitement at Leeds (briefly)
A five wicket burst from Stuart Broad left England with a surprise run chase to square the series at Headingley.
With the loss of England's 4th wicket curtailed the chase and the excitement packed its bags and left the building.
South Africa second innings 258/9 dec
Jacques Rudolph 69
Graeme Smith 52
Stuart Broad 5/69
Kevin Pietersen 3/52
England second innings target 253 from 39 overs
Hands were shaken at 7.30 with six overs left 130/4
Alastair Cook 46
Jonathan Trott 30 not out
Andrew Strauss 22
Who is he kidding?
What is Kevin Pietersen if he isn't a Test Cricketer?
Will he be able to massage his own ego enough travelling the World's T20 tournaments as a Gun for Hire; undoubtedly he'd be wealthier but will his profile suffer?
As all Notts fans know, the guy is a very talented cricketer (to say the least) but he is also a complete d*ck in an equal measure!

1499 Tons
Roger Marshall, first team scorer 2012, has alerted us all via DC's column on the Notts website that Nottinghamshire batsmen have currently scored 1499 centuries in first class cricket.
Who will score the 1500th ton for Notts?
Might it be James Taylor, who should be available for county action after limited activity at the test.
According the George Dobell, Bears will have Bell and Trott available too...........................
Notts have announced an extended squad for the Taunton jaunt:
Alex Hales, Riki Wessels, Michael Lumb, James Taylor, Adam Voges, Chris Read (C), Paul Franks, Steven Mullaney, Graeme Swann, Graeme White, Andre Adams, Ben Phillips, Andy Carter, Harry Gurney
and will decide on Tuesday morning what eleven to start the game, once the wicket has been scrutinised - there is every possibility it might be set-up for Somerset's latest import, Abdur Rehman.

Dai Llewellyn sets Outlaws too stiff a target

Redfern rescues Sheep after Shreck attacks.
Tony Palladino's 7/53 set up a challenging run chase over the last day and a half for Derbyshire at Derby against Kent.
After rain disrupted proceedings on Saturday, Derbyshire looked well set on 197/2 on Sunday needing 295 but then the Cornish Giant, Charlie Shreck struck taking four wickets.
Dan Redfern then steadied the ship and is currently guiding the Sheep to an important win against one of their nearest rivals for the Division 2 title, 286/8 at lunch. After lunch, Sheep won by the 2 wicket margin.
England's Innings in the test fizzled out after KP was out LBW to the second ball of the day, 425 all out.
