Cricket: The John Player League: Lancashire v Northamptonshire

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

from Old Trafford
Lancashire, with games in hand on the leaders, are still in the running for League honours, and victory for them in today's match is vital.
It was in this competition earlier in the season that Northampton's Colin Milburn made a welcome return to first-class cricket, four years after his car accident.

During the tea interval at 4.10*: Talking Cricket: Cliff Gladwin (Derbyshire and England), Alec Bedser (Surrey and England) and John Arlott look back on the 1949 Durban Test which produced one of the most memorable finishes of all time.

Peter Walker introduces the programme which includes news of today's other fixtures.
Commentators at Old Trafford, John Arlott and Jim Laker
