Looks like MS had it right, Middlesex 470 for 8. Need to wrap this up early tomorrow morning and bat well 2nd innings.

Yes, I thought we were on the low side after the first day. NMR is quite a small ground so 500 plus is the norm
and complicated

It is mainly the quality of the wickets at NMR which favour batsmen at this time of year.
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.

Nothing great will ever be achieved without great men, and men are great only if they are determined to be so. For glory gives herself only to those who have always dreamed of her.

Things have changed pretty fast. 8 down now. First defeat of the season coming up.

That puts Middlesex top too. They appear to be Yorkshire's bogey team

My firm used to be sponsors at the Scorborough Festival so I got to see just about every match & met the players. Remember Ken Rutherford hitting 300 in a day for New Zealand in the most explosive innings I have ever seen. Met some great guys - Desmond Hayes was a great laugh. So was Brian Close. I was supposed to be entertaining but had a brilliant time although I couldn't drink as I had to take my guests home.
