Bird scarers were necessary because scarecrows just don't do the job. Birds become accustomed to static figures and actually land on them, as if to mock them, and feed fulsomely around them.
Warwickshire 248 for 4 (76 overs). Frost 38, Botha 35.
Impressive effort from this pair, ensuring Warwickshire don't sustain a damaging first-innings deficit. Botha has just sent a gorgeous flick through mid-wicket that drew comparison with Jack Hobbs.
No-one has got injured in the last hour.
Ashley Giles has just eaten a toasted sandwich.

Cheese, I think.


NOTE: It was the shot, not mid-wicket, that drew comparison with Jack Hobbs.
