Bopara is currently 152 not out...is he going to walk back into the England team a la Ian Bell and Steve Harmison whenever they do something decent in CC??? Hmmm, I doubt it too...

Another 50 for Adil Rashid as Yorkshire close in on Lancashire's score, it would take an almighty cock-up from one side for a result in the game now, so with these two teams I guess anything is still possible!

When was the last time a Yorkshire number eight made consecutive Championship centuries?

He could be playing himself onto the plane for South Africa if he keeps this late season form up.

Yorkshire 13 ahead at tea.

Bat on the rest of tonight, get 130 or so ahead then have a dart at knocking Lancs over tomorrow.

Yorks 299-6 a lead of 20 and Bopara hit 201 today!

Rashid's century up, shortly after Brophy fell for 99.

As said above, consecutive Championship centuries and 5 fors for Rashid, great effort.

He should be first choice spinner for the SA series. It maybe harsh on Swann but Rashid has too much potential to be he;d back any longer.

Bugger. That's all I've really got to say! Not long since left and now I'm on my way to the Willows so today's not going to improve much!
