Rain affects play on day two at Lamphey

Rain again on the second day prevented play until 5.30 after tremendous efforts by the groundsmen to clear surface water from the surrounds. In the 42 overs remaining, Berkshire looked sharper in the field and Denning again bowled superbly taking four more wickets for 18 to finish with figures of 8-66 from his 27 overs as Wales were bowled out for 277. Berkshire, unfortunate to lose Brogan before the close, ended the day on 13-1 and it will need some imaginative captaincy to conjure up an exciting final day's play.
