A wicket falls
Warwickshire 56 for 1 (17 overs). Maddy 25, Powell 4.
Westwood, dropped in the cordon on 3 and 9, fails to control a hook at Evans and lifts the ball to long-leg to perish for 14. His championship scores this season: 0,9,11,11,39,5,7,14.
"It was almost torture," said the man from the Times, of Westwood's innings today.
Maddy, on 25, survives a huge lbw shout from Murtagh. Fraught stuff for the batsmen.
One or two balls keeping a bit low. Looks important not to be chasing too many in the fourth innings here.


do you think if Ian Westwood stole Ashley Giles' car, ran over Ashley Giles' dog then crashed the car into Ashley Giles' house, that he might be dropped? I suspect not.
It's one thing to show patience with a player but how much patience can you afford?
Ian actually increased his average for the season today, from 11.71 to 12.00.
He also almost tripled his previous best of 5 against Middlesex!
