Thompson will be our death guy. Garton could end up out of the side if he doesn't start well. And as ever...someone will be injured!

Looks close, would have thought Woakes gets in somewhere?

I was sort of hoping Taz Ali would get a go in the Blast this season.

Is this the lad with the funny action?

Cheers

Is playing for Shropshire today...has he been released? I acknowledge there has been times in the past when contracted professionals have appeared for National County sides.

Been following the current round of the County Championship the last couple of days...this Rory Haydon who's getting wickets for Derbyshire, wasn't he in our academy at one point? I think he was.

Are we removing peoples highest score still? I lose track...

5 blokes averaging 40 or above, 2 more averaging over 35, looks pretty healthy to me.

Took it midway through the 82nd over.

I get its been a long day in the field but why aren't we taking the new ball here?!

Now then...

It wasn't easy but Woakes has good hands and probably should do better there...

Absolutely, alluded to it on here on day 1 re. Pollard.

We've bowled well again here, could easily be 3 down...so frustrating.

The umpiring over the past 2 games has been diabolical.

Woakes was terrific, showed that if you can hold line and length you will get rewards, there is just enough in this pitch if you bowl well for sustained periods.

State of this umpiring lol

Thompson on Clarke then AGAIN, what is that not hitting?!

Woakes had a extremely close shout on Clarke prior to Tea too. Agreed, we've bowled well without luck here.

Henry Brookes dismissed for 89 v Derbyshire gutted for him, thought the ton was on.
