Help is on the way

Warwickshire 43 for 3 (22 overs). Trott 7, Troughton 7.

Blanket defence from the batsmen, simply determined to occupy the crease for a while.

Anderson bowling a testing spell from the City End.

Slight glitch on the scoreboard front. The scoreboard at the Building Site End is not operating today due to what is believed to be a software problem. That scoreboard had performed faultlessly so far this season so hopes were high that the long-standing board-related problems at that end of the ground had cleared up for good.

An engineer is on the way from a place understood to be like Swindon.
