Two sitter catches dropped.

Three crazy run outs.

At least four of our batsmen chucked their wickets away, including two of our experienced players Lyth & Bess.

All this against a severely weakened Hampshire team.

Feeble & pathetic for the umpteenth time this season.
Lots of embarrassment once again yes. Coad's dropped catch and Hill's choice of shot to give his wicket away pretty much the highlights.

Good signing.

So have a couple of ours, Andrew Neal has played very well for a 26 yr old minor counties player

Yorkshire struggling again.

A lack of attacking intent, no energy or urgency.

Yorks need 58 runs off 14 overs with only four wickets remaining.

Another idiotic shot from Dom Bess, just when we were looking comfortable.

Lyth out for 21 though.

Run rate down to 8.5 now.

Expect more prodding & padding about from Yorkshire.

Some really poor dismissals so far today on what looks a good batting surface where we’ll need a big score. Wharton really doesn’t look ready to return yet but that runout looked very tight on the stream.

Nothing new there!

We had a plumb lbw turned down. Was hitting leg stump easily. No review system

That's the easiest dropped catch I've seen in a long time, slow dropping, didn't need to move, very easy catch Pitre allowed t ogo through his hands.. Gonna be very costly

Two definite LBW not given, one badly dropped catch and we're up against 308 on a wicket that both teams failed on on Friday... it was a 140 pitch that day

Umpire is at least consistant, that was hitting middle stump for me. Ali Orr gets lucky
