A Sunday of drizzle and dull skies didn’t dry up Nottinghamshire’s drive to post a formidable first-innings total.
Instead, runs flowed from the bats of Messrs Clarke and Slater, and Mullaney and Moores, as the Green and Golds racked up 472 from their 120 overs.
And the scoreboard pressure caused a cascade of Lancashire wickets in the final session, setting up the most unexpected of grandstand finishes for the final day.
It capped a day on which to see the Nottinghamshire engine room delight in the joy of run-scoring – the simple, primal thrill of feeling bat on ball – was to remind those looking on of why they fell in love with the game in the first place.
Watch full highlights from day three above.
