The trough

Warwickshire 370 for 6 (70 overs). Barker 43, Javid 0.

Clarke did indeed reach his century from the ball after tea and then effectively declared by charging at the spinner and being stumped by seven yards. 101 from 95 balls, 12 fours, 2 sixes.

Barker now has his snout in the trough and has played some attractive strokes. "I don't like the way he bats," N.Carter has just observed. "He keeps the ball on the ground far too much."
