Northants have played some excellent cricket this season in the one-day game, but it's been soured somewhat by some very poor displays with the red ball.
They were wretched last time out against Worcestershire and here - having won the toss - have coughed up three cheap dismissals and have been plunged into trouble once again.
The coaching staff talked about resetting their Championship season for these final three games in order to try and rescue their campaign, but so far, it's as you were.

Creating open space on the site where the medieval Northampton Castle used to be is "not the best use" of land, according to Northamptonshire County Council.
The Friends of Northampton Castle, which produced an artist's impression of the former castle, says land opposite St Peter's Church on Marefair was going to be turned into green space.
The group claims the council has now changed its mind for the land, following the demolition of an office block. It fears houses might be built there instead.
In a statement, the authority says a working group, established to discuss the area and which included the Friends of Northampton Castle, "felt that open space was not the best use of the land in terms of reflecting the heritage of the site".
"We are continuing to consider possible uses for the land and will be presenting a business case in due course," it added.

The Friends of Northampton Castle say they'll campaign against a plan to build houses on land opposite St Peter's Church in Marefair.
An office block that stood on the site has been demolished and it had been previously announced by the county council that an open green space might be created.
A statement from the council says it is "continuing to consider possible uses for the land".
Dr Marie Dickie, from the Friends of the Castle, says she's not happy about the change of heart.
Quote MessageThere is such a thing as planning permission and the county council haven't got it yet. We're looking to get them to change their minds."
