Worcs 15-3 and Moeen out. Two for Brooks. Yorks fighting back, but they won't want to give an international spinner a sniff on the last day.

Yardy gone without troubling the scores. Lead at 243 with 8 remaning..... want to have Hampshire batting tonight for a session, so ideally a lead of 450 should be made

Worcestershire 21/4 this morning. They were always likely to struggle after letting Yorkshire off the hook yesterday.

I'm at the game today Pob. He walked in so slowly almost as though he didn't want to arrive. Someone needs to put an arm around him and quick.

How is the pitch playing? Seems that the top orders have struggled against the new ball all match, but the lower orders have found runs pretty easy to come by once the new ball has worn off...... fair guess? Would expect trying to win the match will be tough if Hampshire batten down the hatches.

Would like to hear its a minefield though

Enjoy the day Pompey!

It looks quite pacey to me. Fair bit of bounce Joyce just played a lovely cut shot and looks lively.and now one to leg like a rocket for 4.and now he's out dammit! Good catch by Briggs

Which makes the thought of not offering the follow on even stranger.

I was amazed by that. The bowlers had a nice rest overnight we could have wrapped it up by tea.A side note, I've never seen stumps as white as these. Is it a new requirement?

Yorkies have turned their match on its head. looking like strong favourites now.

Still time for Worcestershire to put on a lower order partnership, anything above 200 could be difficult to chase especially with Yorkshire's weak batting.

Sussex are crumbling in the second innings..... neither putting runs on quickly or staying in to amass a score. I think Ed Joyce was drinking last night, his brain is obviously not in gear!

[Arthur Crabtree]

Worcs seven down, and Yorks without Sidebottom in the second innings.

[Alviro Patterson]

Worcestershire 100 all out

Steve Patterson with 5-11

Knocked the tail over.

I love it when Luke Wright is not playing IPL.... second 50 of the match for him
