Bell and Troughton make it to lunch
Lunch: Warwickshire 122 for 4 (36 overs). Bell 40, Troughton 43.
Twenty-year-old left-arm spinner Simon Kerrigan's first ball in championship cricket was nurdled for a single by Troughton.
His eighth ball drew a very respectful defensive shot from Bell.
These two batsmen have played very well; positively at first to reclaim the initiative then carefully to ensue no pre-lunch collapse.

On 4 September 1403, King Henry IV wrote to the Mayor, Sheriffs and Aldermen of the City of Chester, commanding that "all manner of Welsh persons or Welsh sympathies should be expelled from the City; that no Welshman should enter the City before sunrise or tarry in it after sunset, under pain of decapitation".
