Absolutely brilliant.

They're doing fine so far.

Burgess bowled. Let's just say it would be a miraculous win from here.

Hain and Lamb gone now. It's not looking good from here. Both played well (as did Rhodes) but one of them has to go on and make a ton.

Poor old Rob Yates looked all at sea against Broad. It was something of a mercy killing when he was finally given out LBW.

I didn't watch any of yesterday, but how did the bowling fall away? Did Notts just bat well? Did we run out of steam? Or were they just following bad plans? I can remember England having g the same problem.

I think what it was is that the pitch is actually a decent batting track and it flattened out a bit throughout the day. Also, some of the Notts top order gave their wickets away with terrible shot selection and the lower order have just batted a lot better.

Gone for an x-ray on his finger, according to Dobell on Twitter.

Lead of 32. Not massive but in the context of a low scoring game, it could be important.

58 for 4. That's a great morning session for us. OHD and Norwell outstanding, Miles not far behind.

The bowling has been pretty tight today and there's been more movement on offer than was the case the other day but it has to be said most of the Notts batting has been dreadful.

And now a very smart catch by Rob Yates off Norwell to get rid of Hameed.

Lovely delivery from Bres to get Slater caught behind. He's still a class act.

He looked solid enough but he didn't find scoring as easy as most of the other batters in the game. Also he didn't get as much of the strike as Rhodes, which probably contributed a lack of fluency. It was maybe a bit of frustration which saw him poke at one going across him to be caught at first slip.

Rhodes is going well this morning. Punishing anything with a bit of width.

I'm not seeing much movement off the straight from our quicks.

Yes, I've got it on. I saw about half an hour before lunch. We looked rather toothless at that point but the Durham openers were well set. We've got the breakthrough now so I hope we can make a few inroads.

So some televised Bears in less than two weeks. Lovely stuff.

Such sad news. I remember the B&H semi at the Oval in 1994. Joey was fielding on the boundary near us and we were pleading with him to come back to Edgbaston.

Brilliant news! So glad EB got this together. Ta very much! I found about it via a tip off from George Dobell on Twitter.
