43rd, 44th and 47th

Warwickshire 130 for 1 (43 overs). Westwood 65, Bell 21.

This is a good effort from Warwickshire because the seamers have got a bit out of the pitch and a few balls have lifted past the outside-edge.

Westwood reached his first 50 of the season with his tenth four, punched through the covers in the first over after lunch, his 91st ball faced.

Bell scored four from his first 42 balls faced then pulled, drove and chopped his 43rd, 44th and 47th balls for boundaries.

No pied wagtail in evidence. Just one flurry of geese honking far in the distance at 2.05pm. The only evidence of bird life - the sizeable deposit which has been on the press-box window for a month.
