3.45pm: They didn't quite get up to 200, but that is by some distance the highest score in three seasons of the Hundred at Lord's. Dan Lawrence's scintillating 93 off 49 paved the way for the home side, and he had good support from the likes of Zak Crawley before Ravi Bopara hit his straps at the death. Here are Crawley's thoughts at halfway: "Feel in good touch, good start and Dan played unbelievably. His hands are unbelievable, he puts the ball in areas where they didn't have fielders. Played brilliantly. [Bowling] Keep it away from the short side, they've got a good batting line-up but we have a good chance." It's a good game to win for Rockets. Back for the chase in 10

Cook to Bopara, 2 runs, pounded over long-on... ZOMG, Hain again! He throws himself back over the rope, catches it almost horizontal and throws the ball back in before he hits the ground! Awesome fielding in the deep, saves his side four runs

Cook to Bopara, FOUR, cute from Bopara, four more! Full outside off, opens the face and runs it to deep third. He's done that to Lasith Malinga, to be fair
