Post lunch a flurry of wickets had our visitors 426-8 courtesy of a second Wharton victim, a third for Waite and another for Cliff. The two new batters, Morley and Johnson, however, advanced the score to 486-8 a partnership of 60 in 100 balls before bad light halted play and an early tea was taken – Morley unbeaten on 45 from 62 balls.

Rain and more bad light halted the resumption until 4.25pm with two overs being lost. Lancashire declared 486-8, a lead of 227.

A heavy downpour arrived shortly after with Yorkshire 9 without loss from 3 overs. The rain eased but play was further delayed following lightning in the area and play was abandoned for the day at 6.08pm with further rain falling.
