Who's Next?
Not promising - 22 points for Lancashire methinks.
Severely hope I'm wrong on this one, though.

I'm rain dancing as we speak, at least we have points on the board, the pressure will hopefully start to tell, all we need is four dropped bonus points and its back in our hands

Hmm, skittling Lancashire out for less than 250? You'd better do a 'Miracle Dance' while you're at it.gazwag said:

The Points System
The county championship works on a points system, the winner being the team with most points in the first division. The points are awarded as follows:
Win: 14 points.
Tie: 7 points.
Draw: 4 points.
Loss: No points awarded.
Teams may also collect bonus points, for batting and bowling. These points can only be obtained from the first 130 overs of each team's first innings. The bonus points are retained regardless of the outcome of the match.
Batting
200-249 runs: 1 point
250-299 runs: 2 points
300-349 runs: 3 points
350-399 runs: 4 points
400+ runs: 5 points
Bowling
3-5 wickets taken: 1 point
6-8 wickets taken: 2 points
9-10 wickets taken: 3 points

On fire
What's needed is for Durham to win the toss, bat first, knock up an imposing score of 24/2 in their first innings ... and DECLARE.
Looking out of my window there is little chance of serious rain today in Manchester.

Cricinfo states that Durham won the toss and elected to bat.
