256 might be a good score if it's a tricky pitch. Good batting in the middle order after the usual awful start. 86 from Latham - still think it's a bad decision for him to bat at 4.

Martin Emmerson suggests the downpour is imminent at Northants. If the forecast is right it'll signal the end of the game.

Into the 7th over and it's 27-2. Might get a game in after all.

well 256 is not a disaster, so gradually the team is pulling itself around game by game.

2 wickets helps, if we can get to 10 overs. economical bowling is the order of the day

although we haven't done much in the way of economical bowling up to now.

may I presume that the DL score won't appear until 10 overs have been bowled?

Looking at the forecast it now suggests the rain will arrive at 5pm. Might not come at all I suppose.
Sounds like Duckett was out to a freak dismissal- hit the ball back to Dixon and it ricocheted off his foot straight to Will Smith.

I think it should be on the scoreboard at the ground- usually is at CLS from the start...when the board is working.

Looking at the video it looks as if Dixon kicked the ball and it flew into the covers.

Past the 10 over mark now so there'll be a result. Northants run rate is fine so regular wickets are required.
Harte coming on now!

Looking at that Northants lineup and they have some very dangerous hitters down the order so it's essential to get at least 2 more wickets whilst there's enough runs in the bank to hopefully make it tough.

Northants are slowly increasing their run rate, which suggests to me that they are just keeping themselves ahead of the DL score, so we are going to need a couple of wickets fairly soon

Yep. Very little margin for error now and it'll probably require Latham to get the bowling changes right. One horror spell might finish us off.
