Cork hurts Hants with double blow

Evening Standard   24 Jul 2008


Former England star Dominic Cork rolled back the years with a double strike as Lancashire took control of their County Championship clash against Hampshire at Old Trafford.

The seamer trapped Michael Brown (76) leg before and then dismissed wicketkeeper Nic Pothas for a duck when he was caught by Lou Vincent.

The visitors, who were 174 for three overnight, also lost Chris Benham (89) and Chris Tremlett quickly (4), before a knock of 49 by Dimitri Mascarenhas guided them to 288 all out.
