Shocker from George Garton, heaved it straight down the throat of deep midwicket.
250-3, new ball due in 7 overs. 52 overs remaining today.
Pressure on.

Tom Haines gone... not a great shot, tired even, to Murtagh, ends a great captains knock.

Horrible swipe from Delray, Ok it turned a bit but crikey!

6 wickets gone for 86 in the session, and the last 3 of those went for just 1 run.

Really poor dismissals for Garton, Ibrahim and now Rawlins - all terrible shots with no thought to the match situation.

Hopefully we can stretch out the last session today and hold on a bit for tomorrow morning. Not looking great now though after a positive start...
Seeing as the last 6 wickets fell for 12 runs, we might need the heavens to open at 4.30 this afternoon to save this one.

Not totally kept up with this thread or game, but is it a given they would enforce follow on? Bowlers have been at it a while now.
Might they have a breezy hour or so batting then put us back in right before the close?

Follow on enforced.
Our top order batsmen, particularly Haines, are likely to be a bit tired too. Well, we're now going to see whether their bowlers are tired or not ................... following on.

Hmm, well that ended quickly.
Bat for a day and a half it is then.
Hopefully against a knackered attack

The most curious thing..
Its going to be by an innings and a lot.....
There was some abysmal batting by the middle order.

Looking at the results around the country, unless we now get skittled for 60 odd it's no more embarrassing than some of the other losses.

Taking a wider cricketing perspective for a moment, is anybody watching to know whether Hollman's bowling well for his wickets? I gather he's a 20year old leggie who is actually from Middlesex, so if that's right it would be nice to see him do well if it wasn't against us.
