Tahir takes two

Gloucestershire 48 for 2 (8 overs). Marshall 1, North 6.

Gloucestershire began at a gallop but then Tahir took two wickets in three balls. Spearman lifted a catch to Powell at mid-off to fall for 20 then Porterfield, on 14, edged to Frost.

It's sultry here and there are a lot of flies. Those damned flies.
