Decent start for Yorkshire after losing the toss and being asked to bowl against Sussex.

Three early wickets for Sideshow Bob, but a recovery since then to 73-3.

Interestingly no Ajmal Shahzad for Yorkshire - Ashraf and Patterson both playing. Injured or finally paying the price for a pretty miserable year form wise?

Well I wasn't bloody far off.

Lancs tearing Worcs to shreds....Probably be following on by the close....

Worcs now favourites to win.....Bit of a balls-up by Lancs if they let this one slip away, and will surely see an end to their title hopes?

Proof again that Boycott's old "add 2 wickets for 10 runs" adage makes the game look completely different, gotta fancy Lancs again now.

Back in the balance now, since Keedy has removed Solanki, who was set to guide Worcs home.

Hope Lancs' tail wrapping up issues go away for at least one innings....

I'll be amazed if Worcs win this now. I'd give them about a 20/1 chance, if that. They've repeatedly collapsed from promising positions all season; they've got a poor tail, all their top order batsmen are out. I wouldn't have fancied them even before those late couple of wickets went down, and on a general point I think people underestimate how hard it is to chase down 300+ batting last.

It's a sad state of affairs when I'm having to will Lancashire on to victory.

Nice to see England announce what amounts to a Lions squad for an irrelevant one dayer against Ireland that will remove players from their counties for an important round of fixtures.

Superb timing.

That really did make me smile.

rlYour dream has come truerl

Still raining at Taunton on Day 4, so hard to see Somerset getting anything and Hampshire fighting back to on Day 3 against Warwickshire - 113 runs ahead with 6 left, so with a bit of luck ......

As a Lancashire fan, maybe, just maybe .......

The worst thing is you play them again next time out, so I might be left in the same position.

The consequences don't bear thinking about.

Such a dichotomy.

Would ANY die-hard Yorkshire fan forsake a place in the top division to prevent Lancashire finally taking the title?

I'm going to refrain from answering that on fear of deportation.
