DRINKS BREAK. The outing continues to be tough for one neighbour. The other neighbour is just toying. The third over seems to be a long time ago, when England had lost their first wicket on 12. After that, it has primarily been England, driven through the Joe Moores-Ben Mayes stand of 188. Curiously though, so far, it has only been two batters performing. But their contributions have been massive. Scotland have tried their best, but could not stop the rampage. Only Manu Saraswat and Max Chaplin have slowed down things somewhat. Can they finish well and keep the Brits under 350?
