VICE-captain Warren Hegg's hopes that Andrew Flintoff and Mark Chilton held the key to escaping defeat when the final day of the Roses clash began at Old Trafford today were soon dashed.
Flintoff, fresh from a belligerent half-century first time round, gave Lancashire renewed hope in contributing an unbeaten 34 to 74 for one by stumps last night.
But when play resumed today he was soon out, bowled by Hamilton for 43. Lancs also lost Scuderi and Lloyd cheaply.
Shortly before lunch Lancs trailed by 100 runs with only six wickets remaining.
