A freezing blizzard put an end to the day's play. At this rate, we will have batted only 3 innings in the first three championship games.
Big blow to Yorks having Sidebottom retiring injured during his 6th over.

Are Bears gonna make do with 4 batting bonus points require 88 off 16 to get maximum, could be difficult with 6 down

[adrenachrome]

Rikki Clarke out for 51 from 46 balls.
387 for 7.
We have to get 400 and not lose another 3 wickets according to the strategists in the member's lounge.

[Chris Jameson]

I'm going to stick my neck out here and predict this match will end in a draw.

[adrenachrome]

We have declared on 453 for 9.
Tea is being taken.
 Currently pleasant sunshine but when the sun disappears behind a cloud it is freezing. Snow flurries in the morning session.
 

[Villafirst]

Another draw predictably in these wintry conditions. One observation, Westwood should be dropped after a poor start to the season. Bring in Laurie Evans or Ateeq Javid. Westwood is a weakness as an opening bat.

[Chris Jameson]

It must be a Westwood thing.
