  12. Middlesex 103-1 v Northants 219

    Greg: "The best thing about James Rew is that he’s so unassuming that security wouldn’t let him into the dressing room on Friday after the T20 QF as they didn’t recognise him and Jason Kerr had to get him in! @SomersetCCC#bbccricket"

    He is certainly some prospect, that's for sure.

  20. Middlesex 94-1 v Northants 219

    Shot! Robson leans into a slightly overpitched ball from Taylor and punches the ball through mid off for four.

    The next ball is edged but bounces just short of gully.
