Durham as profligate with extras as Lancs were.

Vilas looking solid atm. He has just edged through vacant 3rd slip, but I don't think it was a chance

It's Carse who is responsible for these no balls, by the looks of it, although he nearly got Vilas with the extra ball. Big appeal for the catch down the leg side and it looked as though there might have been a bit of glove involved, but the umps was unmoved. Hard to tell from this far away. It was a big appeal from Eckersley

big shout for lbw for Vilas. might have just struck outside off, but it might not either. dead for all money otherwise. Vilas had a big stride in and he held his pose to give the impression it had hit outside the line, but I'm not so sure. Put a bit of doubt in the umpire's mind and got the benefit

been a couple of big shouts for lbw and both had a lot of merit in them. The earlier one for Bohannon was absolutely dead, so the only thing that could have saved him was if the umps thought there had been a bit of bat involved.

another big shout and another refusal. Rushy isn't happy. Neil Pratt is the umpire.... I think he's forgotten where his finger is

there you go.... bring on Harte, give him one slip and third ball he gets Vilas to nick off to that slip. I'm always glad to see the back of Vilas... dangerous customer

and just before lunch too

That wicket might just keep us in the game. Nip a couple out after the break and the comeback might be on.

Yes. All of a sudden the runs are flowing. Desperately need a wicket or 7!

different ball brings an lbw shout immediately

sadly we couldn't get the umpire changed and he continues to say no.

3rd delivery and LL nicks off

Not just England..... it works for Durham too
