Petersen spearheads Lancashire fightback
The one wicket to fall was that of Liam Livingstone, who was caught behind by Ryan Davies off Jack Leach for 57 when playing a most undistinguished front-foot paddle.
That wicket fell on 213 after just over an hour’s play at Emirates Old Trafford but Alviro Petersen batted through the session in a professional manner and was undefeated on 71 at lunch.
