Actually we'd need another 68 to avoid following on wouldn't we? I seem to remember the rules being changed not too long back.

Unsure, is the follow on within 150 in county cricket, or 200 like Tests?

No matter, its bound to throw it down tomorrow and ruin our chances again

Seems it is 150.

Rain saves Yorkshire from a crushing innings defeat.

Yorkshire didnt get bowled out once in the game, bit of a leap to say they would have been twice

We'll have em at OT at the end of the month mate



Lancs are now the only unbeaten team in the CC Division 1 and are unbeaten for 17 CC games. Just need to convert a few of the draws into wins and who knows what might (only might!) happen!

Don't forget our bowling point as well.

The way Lancs got 8 pretty quickly suggests 12 in a day wouldn't of been out of the question



So much for the great Yorkshire title charge, come up against a truly great side and need the weather gods to save them from a hiding at home

Slightly O/T but did anyone watch the first T20 game last night from Hove??
No idea how Bumble managed to get through witnessing this at the beginning of the game without saying too much!! Though he was apparently warned not to by his producer!!

He did say his glasses were steaming up

I know what [iwill[/i happen. You'll put yourself in with a great chance of winning the thing, only to choke South Africa-style when it really matters!

How many years since you won the County Championship?

I think they need to start issuing safety warnings when Derbyshire play on grounds with shortened boundaries. That Bosman is bloody dangerous! It really is like watching a baseball slugger. My missus couldnt concentrate on her suduko puzzle.

The Harlequin Hearts had similar costumes for the first home game of last year against Wigan. (In February!) The mass perving of Wigan fans, charging to the front of the concourse with cameras clicking furiously, was a hilarious sideshow in itself. Sadly "larger" costumes have been the order of the day ever since. In fact I'm sure I read somewhere that the Sussex cheerleaders will not be dressing quite like that in future.

Can they stop putting Lancs on TV

amazing - i saw him play for sa in a one dayer a good few years ago and was really impressed, banged on about him to a few people, then he seemed to disapear, hits the ball in an stunning way

How to beat Lancs at T20,Win toss,bat 1st=game over.

Spot on sadly.

1-0 to us so far this year then

Hasn't he only made that journey around 20 times since he joined them? Does it really matter what county he plays for? He's either on England duty or IPL duty from what I can see.

Day 1 of the Roses Match - Yorkshire win the toss, opt to bat first and are 89-0, Lyth off to a flyer.

Two spinners for Yorkshire, Rashid and Rafiq both play.

Another ton for Lyth.

Looks like Lancs have managed to force a little collapse but they've done enough to avoid defeat now, barring a shocking second innings.

Although, Lancashire's inability to score 200 in the first innings suggests a follow on is coming...
