A century ( is it his first?) for Billy Root to take Notts from 92/4 to 303/6.

Expect some Corbyn type comment from Warks after Trott throws his wicket immediately after his century and Bell couldn't wait that long so threw his away on 51.

Five Yorkshire players playing for England today - so begins their period of depletion

There have been some ridiculous scores chased down so far. Teams getting well over 300 and then the opposition seemingly cruising to victory.

Another mammoth total facing Warwickshire and Bell should have answer why Jeetan Patel was not given a full quota of 10 overs. I'm afraid his failings as a captain that appeared last year look even greater this year.

Still a bit of a long shot but Maybe Madsen and Smit can pull off a win for Derbys against Yorks.

Benco gets Madsen. That should be enough for a Yorks win.

Another for Ben Coad, 3-fer. He's on fire, as Tony Greig might have said.

The lower middle order and tail did it's best to drag an unwilling Warwickshire over the line but the effort proved too much.

Thinks looking very bleak in the competition for Lancs, Warks, Kent and Gloucs, whilst Middlesex and Northants are right up against it too.

Even Leicester, Surrey and Glamorgan are probably faced with having to win all their remaining games to have a chance to secure a top three qualification finish.

Thanks for everything Pothas. You'll be missed. My nickname for you was apt and I will never forget it. For the last time, arise Sir Nic.

And then there's the danger of non qualifiers fielding understrength teams and devaluing the competition.
