Let the party begin...

By Brian Halford on Jun 29, 10 04:36 PM

Tea: Warwickshire 205 for 9 (69 overs). Clarke 53, Rankin 6.

It's there. It's there. Steve Harmison, Geoff Cook, Ian Botham, Wayne Larkins, Dale Benkenstein, Paul Collingwood, Arthur Poppy, Don Robson - your boys took one hell of a beating.

At 4.36pm, Clarke scored two off Stokes (courtesy of a Blackwell misfield) to clock up Warwickshire's first batting point since 5.21pm on May 4.

The same stroke raised an excellent 50 from Clarke who has farmed the strike superbly in a last-wicket stand that has so far generated 36.

Brian, Cricinfo have got us at 195/9

Is there something awry with the scoring?

Yes Almajir, Cricinfo is having a bit of a 'mare this season. I can confirm the Bears are 205 for 9 at tea.

Steve, the party in the press-box is just getting going. We're speculating as to whether the noble Clarke and Rankin can secure ANOTHER batting point.
