Northamptonshire's South African captain Andrew Hall blocks a ball from the Derbyshire left-arm spinner David Wainwright on the first day of a County Championship match. The other batsman is Rob Newton, who made 115 as the home side ended the day on 311-6. The Derbyshire wicket-keeper is Tom Poynton, Wes Durston is at slip, and the umpire is Steve Gale. The view is from the Ken Turner Stand at the Wantage Road end of the ground.
