No Play At Trent Bridge

covers - a common sight in England on Friday.

LV County Championship title rivals Nottinghamshire and Somerset were denied the chance to vie for position at Trent Bridge after the third day of their Division One clash was washed out.

No play was possible as leaders Nottinghamshire were unable to build on their overnight score of 46 for two in response to the visitors' first-innings total of 252 all out.

A result now looks highly unlikely, with any play tomorrow likely to be reduced to a scrap for bonus points.
