Willey not even reached the pavilion and we're off for rain.
2 balls and the wicket put Yorks 36 behind on DLS.
Something gone our way for a change.
It will be Leaning joining Head if we restart.

Looking at those clouds I suspect they're off for a while here.

Stopping already, covers coming off. Unfortunately coming back on

Why is it unfortunate? Surely it's better to play a full game? No Bresnan so I wouldn't worry if I were you.

To be fair we've taken a wicket so we shouldn't be complaining but it was still a heavy drizzle and they never should've restarted there.
I would normally agree with you Chris but being a selfish so and so all i'm interested in is qualifying for the Qtrs and at the moment we are on
9 points. What i'm afraid of is Head and in a short run chase he is well capable.

Would obviously not wish it for those who have paid to watch it, but would not be at all disappointed if they don't go out again tonight.

I think this might be another short spell, there's loads of rain around still.

Some poor fielding in the last few overs has cost two boundaries.

I do like Tymal Mills on the Sky commentary. He's pretty good.

Yes but I have a feeling that it will be a tight finish.

I think it said on TV earlier that to guarantee a home draw in qtrs Yorkshire must score 234 to safeguard their RR.
Currently 124/5 28
