Old age should burn and rave at close of day

Warwickshire 226 for 9 (60 overs). Trott 67, Martin 0.

Rankin reached 8, extending his first-class career-best for the second time in successive matches, before giving Davies his fourth catch of the innings.

Trott has declined to go for his shots. Indeed, on several occasions, he took singles early in an over, evidently with abundant faith in Rankin's batsmanship.
