Those BBC layout is fantastic and neat Trev And in that Bang-SL match, still, Bangla retained their respectable position since they got up to a decent score while batting. Around 600+ runs in 100 overs. Interesting!

Adams' two fifties bring Sussex win over title rivals

Yorkshire were saved by heroic lower order batting in their 2nd innings, as
they drew with Kent at Scarborough. Brophy and White both hit fifties in each
innings as Yorkshire posted scores of 267 and 382. Brophy and Lawson saved
Yorkshire after they looked to be all out for around 280. Kent hit 473, Geraint
Jones making 102 and Darren Stevens 80. Kent could only manage 58/2
before the umpires called play on day 4, still needing another 118 runs for
victory.

LV County Championship Division 2...

Sorry Leicestershire get embarrassed by Glamorgan

Somerset continued their push for the title as they beat Derbyshire by 202
runs in Derby. Trescothick hit a century in Somerset's first innings to
continue his great comeback to cricket. Aussie spinner Cam White hit 53,
Lungley the only Derbyshire bowler to threaten with four wickets. Derbyshire
were bundled out for 212, Katich the only man to get going with 57. Andrew
Caddick again was the main man in Somerset's attack, taking 5/61. Somerset
cruised to 235/5 dec on day 3 and 4, before Langer brought his side in for
declaration, setting Derbyshire a total of 385 runs to win. Derbyshire didn't
come close, managing just 183, again captain Simon Katich top scoring. This
win puts Somerset even further ahead of 2nd place Nottinghamshire.

Essex and Gloucestershire played out a dull draw in Bristol. The game included
4 centuries, the first of which were from Essex openers Middlebrook (130) and
captain Pettini (103). Essex declared after they reached full batting points on
403/2. Spearman replied with a fine 112 from 279 balls, helped by 71 from
Hardinges. Essex continued their fine batting from the first innings, making
333/3 before the umpires called played on day 4. Young English batsman Ravi
Bopara, who had been allowed to play even though he has been included
in the England 13-man squad, scored an unbeaten 103. Grant Flower hit an
also unbeaten knock of 69. Essex came off the better, claiming full bonus
points to Gloucestershire's 5 points.

That's what I thought as I watched the the auto play. Maher is a quality batsman though who deserves to be playing for a better side.

I see no where on the match reports a copyrighted sign, apart from next to the bbc name at the bottom!

cheers for the comments guys, very much appreciated!

Kumble to bat but not bowl

SECOND NPOWER TEST, Trent Bridge, day two
India 240/6 lead England 208 all out by 32 runs

India have released a statement this morning ahead of the 3rd day's play at
Trent Bridge stating that Anil Kumble will bat but not bowl.

Kumble injured his finger in the field early on day one, which was feared to
be a broken finger. Scans revealed that it was a minor break, but due to it
being on his bowling hand, he will not be able to bowl for the rest of the
game. He will however bat if needed with extra protective gloves on his right
hand.

Also, India have released comments on RP Singh's strained calf. He has been
working with the physio throughout the past few days and is expected to bat.
India haven't stated whether he will need a runner but he will be able to bat.
He will not bowl as feared, and therefore duties will be heavily placed on the
shoulders of seamers Zaheer Khan and Irfan Pathan.

India go into day three of this 2nd npower test match 32 runs ahead of
England with 4 wickets in hand. Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Irfan Pathan will
be at the crease this morning, looking to give their side a lead of around 150.
England currently lead the series 1-0.

As I mentioned before, its indeed a sad news for India. Missing Jumbo in test match would cost huge for India. Very neat stuff, Trev! Keep it up.

Good news for England bad new for india- Reminds me of the ashes when Glenn McGrath got injured in training.
