if Willey can't get the ball to swing it limits his effectiveness although not sure he would be worse than Ball was yesterday. He has only really had a couple of bad games which for a bowler death sentence for a batsmen just the start of a 8 to 12 month period of totally unequivocal backing

Jon Culley at Notts 68-2 v Derbyshire
Another good moment for Derbyshire, collectively this time, as Cheteshwar Pujara is sent on his way, caught low down to his right by wicketkeeper Daryn Smit pushing forward to a ball from Tony Palladino. Pujara’s soft hands allowed him to get away with an edge towards first slip early in Palladino’s spell but this time the ball just carried. They’re off for rain now but with luck it will be short lived and the forecast for the rest of the day is good. - Live Update

I can see both sides of it for the teams and the player. It is a gamble for the player, While poor his overall record is improving but he could lose his first team place in 4 day Cricket. Depends what happens at Yorkshire, Leaning has secured his place for the time being with that Roses Hundred but it would be nice for Yorkshire to have the ability to bring in someone with FC Exp for a injury or loss of form.

Paul Edwards at Yorkshire v Lancashire
The rain has stopped, the clouds are higher and it would surprise me if the early lunch scheduled for 12.30 was not the prelude to this game getting under way at 1.10pm. These seem decent bowling conditions to me and we could be set up for two fine sessions of Roses cricket. - Live Update
