The tune of two runs

Lancashire 37 for 1 (10 overs). Moore 14, Horton 20.

Rankin is bowling very well from the City End. Moore, on 11, jammed down on the ball just in time and was almost bowled then, on 13, flashed hard and Clarke failed to hold a stinging chance at second slip.

Horton has just Chinese cut - or is it Harrow cut? or French cut? or Stoneleigh cut? - Carter inches past his leg peg, benefiting from the dramatic incident to the tune of two runs.
