Steven Finn in absolutely prime form today. Rolled back the years with a fivefer. If you get a chance to see his dismissal of Root Jnr. It is an absolute peach.

Can he get back to where he was? A young Steve Finn would be in the WC squad.

Onions picking up his 700th FC wicket during the game. Really smart decision by Durham to let him go - and the Lancs v Durham game is coming up soon. Should be disastrous interesting.

Game at York boiling up nicely. Patel's figures suggest Yorkshire may regret not having a frontline spinner.

Yep, could be a tense afternoon. It looks as if Notts are heating for defeat again, this time by Kent. They've got 6 wickets left and two sessions to survive.

Might be tense if Yorks can take a wicket.

Groundstaff in Leicester having little trouble preparing a good batting pitch, despite the recent rainfall.

Yeah. 50 opening stand wasn't required.
Might be a chance of another dramatic finish in the game at Worcester- Sussex two down in their second innings and still over 100 in arrears.

No wickets for Worcs or Yorkshire since my prediction of close finishes.

And Sussex lose two more quick ones. Still 100 behind with 6 wickets left.
Notts on the verge of defeat. 94/8.

There's a wicket, but it's still not tense.

Yeah. Snookers required now!
Also looks as if Sussex have survived a dodgy start and should secure a draw.
Notts seem to be in disarray. A dreadful set of results.
