    They're still in this one!

    A swing and a miss and Luke Wells sees his bails fly into the air.

    Nothing wrong with that leg now! Croft sprints back for a second.

    Back playing again and after all that, Lancashire come through for another - albeit slightly easier- single.

    Lancashire 114-5 v Yorkshire 128-7 (17.0 overs)

    Dead ball called before they crossed so we'll bowl that ball again.

    Steven Croft will continue...with a limp.

    The Old Trafford crowd gave a warm round of applause.

    Then back to Mexican waves and signing.

    Yorkshire were well within their rights to run Croft out there.

  9. ouch!

    Fair play award to Yorkshire.

    Steven Croft falls with cramp while taking a single and doesn't get up. Yorkshire stop fielding and choose not to run him out.

    Dead ball.

    Lancashire 114-5 v Yorkshire 128-7 (17 overs)

    Matthew Waite returns to the attack.

    Lancashire 114-5 v Yorkshire 128-7 (17 overs)

    Two more to finish the over. 15 needed from 18 and Yorkshire's spinners are done.

    Old Trafford is bouncing to Rocking all Over the World by the way.

    Lancashire 112-5 v Yorkshire 128-7 (16.4 overs)

    Short boundary, short ball and a part-time spinner.

    Steven Croft gets down on one knee and hooks it into the stands

  13. Postpublished at 19:35 British Summer Time 17 July 2021

    Lancashire 103-5 v Yorkshire 128-7 (16.1 overs)

    Lyth bowling his last set. Lancashire take a cheeky single, which may be a little too risky as Gary Balance hits the stumps.

    Replays show Luke Wells was well in his crease though.

    Oh how they needed that.

    Luke Wells takes on Root, smashing him down the crowd. He moves on to 24. Does he go big again?

  15. Postpublished at 19:32 British Summer Time 17 July 2021

    Lancashire 94-5 v Yorkshire 128-7 (15.2 overs)

    Flicks off Steven Crofts pads and into the keeper's gloves. Root appeals, but a firm shake of the head from the umpire.

  16. Postpublished at 19:31 British Summer Time 17 July 2021

    Lancashire 94-5 v Yorkshire 128-7 (15 overs)

    Joe Root returns to bowl his last over. A lot of spin being delivered.

    Required rate is now above seven per over.

    You're still calling it for the Red Rose at the moment, but it won't take much for it to get very interesting again.

    Lancashire 94-5 v Yorkshire 128-7 (15 overs)

    Three singles from Bess' last set. He finishes with figures of 1-19.

    Lancashire need 35 from five overs.

    "Keep squeezing, keep squeezing."

    Joe Root is chipper at mid-off.

    Three dots from Dom Bess in his final over so far.

    Another tight set from Lyth.

    Lancs need 38 from 36 now.
