Also at the Oval today. Excellent bowling performance before lunch, then we struggled to get through Chanderpaul & Clark. Bailed out when the floodlights came on before Tea, which turned out to be a good decision.
Highlight for me was Curran Junior getting Hameed out caught behind second ball, after beating him comprehensively first ball. TC and Footitt both bowled very well in tandem and with Junior as a trio rotated very well by the skipper. Batty also bowled well after lunch, but Ansari looked ordinary. Chanderpaul is very difficult to prise out once he drops anchor, as was Trott in the previous match.

Surrey v Lancashire at The Oval - we lost the toss and will bowl first.
The only team news is that Ansari comes in for Dernbach.
Updates when I can, but they'll be sporadic.
That was off the second ball of the innings.
Lancashire now 22-1
31-2
58-3
91-5 at lunch.
Come on Surrey
That was a while ago - Chanderpaul and Clark have put together a decent partnership and it's now 178-6.
Really need to break this partnership.
Lancashire are 294-6, Clark 108* and Chanderpaul 85*
