(Video) Matt Parkinson gets off the mark in style even as Lancashire tank

Matt Parkinson blazed off the mark with a flowing drive off the front foot during the final of the Bob Willis Trophy between Lancashire and Warwickshire. He struck the ball magnificently on the up and it raced away to the fence. The shot from Parkinson was applause-worthy, but the same can’t be said about Lancashire’s batting in the first innings of the title clash. The scoreboard paints a sorry picture with the Roses having been skittled out for a shambolic 78 at Lord’s.
