Yorks seemed to think Tim was past his best as a bowler (ten years since the 2010-11 Ashes) and gave him a chance as a middle order batter which didn't go well. My impression is it was a bit of a break Warks gave him another chance.

Olly Stone off the field with a "stiff side" . A shame he is so injury-prone.

Certainly an encouraging start. You have to wonder what went wrong at Lancs.

Olly Stone is still off the field. Northants taking advantage of this and fighting well.

Captain's knock from Adam Rossington. Brings up his century. Northamptonshire now past 400.

Looks like Yorks will take the points. Though Malan has departed.
