Last Saturday I was in Edgbaston for Day 4 of Warwickshire vs Hampshire. It was my first cricket county match of my life. I really enjoyed it. Great performance by Nic Pothas, who scored a century. I did some pictures and I would like to show them to you.

Why's Anderson not playing today, SKD?

Looks like he is now...

he is...he was on standby for England so was at OT for the start of the test and when he wasn't needed he went to Durham and replaced Newby at lunch

Should seriously consider offering the boss a few of them, TBH - would be great for a few ground profiles.

Thankfully Lancs batted first, so he's having a bowl. I really ca't see why he had to be at OT yesterday, as there was never the slightest chance of him playing.

Unless someone got injured in the warmup, or fell ill this morning? Not likely, but England would look a bit stupid if that happened and they'd already sent their 12th man off to play county cricket.

That's fair. I just hope Anderson doesn't suffer a repeat of 2004 when he seemed to spend most of the summer missing games through beig 12th man all the time.

Sayers finally out which is good. Yorkshire have a longish tail, so I'm hoping we can run through them and get them out for under 500, which would at least leave the slim chance of a positive result for Kent still open. I would imagine it'll be a high-scoring draw though, given the strength of Kent's batting lineup.

Damn.

Looks like rain tomorrow anyway, so match will peter out into a boring draw IMO

Did you see the strange black floaty thing?

Anyway, Somerset are currently 621-3 off 115 overs. Tres, Edwards & White have gone for 182,133 & 114, respectively, and Hildreth & Kieswetter are there on 152* & 0*

Any idea why Langer hasn't come into bat?

With Langer & Blackwell not bothering to have a bat, afaics.
Good to see Broad come back with a couple of wickets.

 

[Anna]

I'm guessing Langer felt the younger guys could have the practice, considering how many runs they've already got!!

 

[Anna]

Somerset declared on 657-5.

Leics 16-1 in reply

 

[SpaceMonkey]

Worcs finally get bored and declare. Just the 701 runs!

 

[Anna]

19-2. Caddy & Willoughby 1 each

 

[Anna]

23-3!

 

[Richard]

Calm down, gel.

 

[pasag]

62* from 37 balls for RTD. Such a gun!

 

[Pup Clarke]

Leicestershire 54-4!!!!!.

Beat ya to it Anna.

 

[grecian]

5 down now, and Peter Trego took a wicket, proves there must be something in the pitch, surely

Honestly though, top performance this, only a bit rubbish if you happen to have Justin Langer in your Fantasy side
