Deary me. The County Ground may have been bathed in sunshine this morning, but Essex's batsmen haven't covered themselves in glory.
A collapse worthy of a house of cards built on the slopes of an Icelandic volcano has been taking place with Essex 7 for three early on before a recovery led by skipper Mark Pettini and wickie James Foster got them out of the mire. But this didn't last long and at lunch they are 78 for six with Ryan ten Doeschate needing to put in a few hours at the crease to get his team out of this particular hole.
Dutch courage needed this afternoon, Tendy...
