• Joe Root leaves field with hand injury but expected to bat
• Notts’ Joe Clarke closing in on second century of the match

Clarke who, alongside Ben Duckett, was wooed by Yorkshire last year, finished three short of what would have been his second century of the game, his Notts debut. He was philosophical as to whether his side, who already have a lead of 446, would bat on in the morning.
