    I take it back. Well played Harry & Grant. The top six still need to buck their ideas up though.

    172-6 (35) at close and 50 behind. Excellent fightback and undefeated partnership of 93 between Finch (46*) and Stewart (49*)

    An unexpected and much needed turnaround. It's not as if it was a soft 60 over ball which was being smacked around, as the 6th wicket went down in the 19th over.

    Jas has come in. When he was very young he was a batter that bowled and actually opened with Seb in the ECB U15 Cup Final. He's certainly no mug but where he is batting is probably about right for him at present. Here's hoping he makes a big contribution today.

    Kashif got runs for the 2s this week. If we can just do what teams frequently do to us then there is hope we might have a lead.

    Rather than turn for a second run and take a couple of paces forward, Kashif stood in his crease and then decided to run. He was run out by literally three or four inches.

    Disappointing not to get a lead but given we were 79-6 and some 143 runs behind, a deficit of 4 runs is a bit of a result.

    No sign of Ali warming up with the other bowlers. Hopefully not another injury

    14/2 Gilchrist strikes again to remove Holden for 5

    If we bowl them out for around 55 we may yet win this.
