Staff and agencies07-Jul-2000Mark Ramprakash (99 n.o.) returned to run-scoring for Middlesex in theirDivision Two championship match against Worcestershire at Southgate. And he hopes that the England selectors will have noted. Middlesex were comfortable at 275-8 by the close.Ramprakash looked more at ease batting in his accustomed position away from the opening the innings. He came in to bat at 96-2 and quickly put on 85 runs with Andrew Strauss (90) before the latter was caught at short fine-leg. Yet Middlesex were never fully confident as Worcestershire bowling with tenacity. Thankfully Ramprakash kept the team together and not even Glenn McGrath bothered him.
