Middlesex's second innings was featured by a sound defensive display by Lee. He declined to be templed but took toll of bad balls. When Hendren joined him at the rrenne, zuns came steadily. Hendren looked well set for his century after passing his 2,000 runs for the season, but he was

The Innings closed at 346, which left Notts to get 247 runs to win-a noi Impossible task. The wicket was tricky enough early on to show that Nolls would have to fight hard to win, and with Durs-
