 Sport | Maynard makes hay in front of the cameras
Their openers were dismissed in the first five overs and Maynard joined Mike Powell, who was playing his first innings for the county since being disciplined last month after a set-to with his team-mate Ian Thomas.

Powell's 71 was easily his highest score in the league this season and, but for his one rash moment, after he and Maynard had put on 133 for the third wicket off 113 deliveries, he would probably have reached the century he deserved.
