Another century for the skipper and a nice 90 from Barry.

Weather tomorrow could eat into there being much chance of a natural result though.

Superb win and no points deduction. Some sour grapes from Northants, mind.

Can I swap a few of England's wickets this morning for Lancs wickets, please? Ta.

Got to say, I've heard bad things about Wantage Road. I found it to be pleasant and welcoming.

Never mind that, have Lancs offered to replay the T20 game from Friday where Yorkshire were diddled out of a delivery when batting?

We'll call it even for the no-ball that never was.

Lancs go top of division 2 with a game in hand.

Kane Williamson a fine signing for Yorkshire to the end of the season. It is a bit much to ask him to replace Root, Bairstow, Bresnan, Ballance, Lees and Plunkett all on his own though...

The England Lions concept really needs to be revisited.

I can see its value in terms of overseas tours during the winter, but thought has to be given on scheduling during the summer.

Having games in the middle of a Test series and a round of Championship games causes real disruption to counties. I know the ECB really don't give a flying one about anything other than Team England, but when you're penalising counties for producing English players by taking them away (over and above the centrally contracted ones) it's rendering the county game meaningless.

Mind, as good a signing as Wullyumsun is, Surrey have trumped us with #im

Good day out in Glasgow yesterday to see Lancs do the double over Scotland in 40 over cricket for the first time. Huge relief when we got the ten overs in to guarantee a result!
