Ben Geddes c Cox b Scriven 0 (Middlesex 32-3)
Image source, ShutterstockThe first bowling change leads to the third wicket and Leicestershire are now justifying their decision to put Middlesex in.
Ben Geddes lasts four balls before getting an edge to Tom Scriven and Ben Cox has his third catch behind.
No wonder the Leicestershire fans are singing.
De Caires 12, Geddes 0
This is an excellent spell from Ian Holland.
The 35-year-old now has 15 wickets in the competition having taken the first two here.
He concedes just one off that over, a single to long leg from Josh de Caires.
Holden c Cox b Holland 5 (Middlesex 31-2)
Max Holden never looked comfortable against Ian Holland.
He plays at a rising delivery and keeper Ben Cox takes a head-high catch.
Middlesex captain Ben Geddes is next in.
Holden 5, De Caires 11
Fine shot off the first ball of Ben Green's over from Max Holden, driving through long-off for four.
But calm down Max.
He charges down the pitch next ball, misses and has to scramble to get back in his crease.
Sensibly he plays out the rest of the over from firmly in his crease.
Holden 1, De Caires 11
Max Holden struggles to get bat on ball against Ian Holland.
When he eventually does he races through for a single and survives the first umpire's review of the day for a run out.
Excellent bowling from Holland who has 1-10 after 4 overs.

An away swinger again on a length. He's gone hard at it.

A wicket maiden from veteran Ian Holland.
He beats the outside edge of new batter Max Holden off the last ball.

Shot of the morning so far as Josh de Caires cover drives for his first boundary.

That was a dismissive clip through square leg.
De Caires 5, Fernandes 13
Josh de Caires scores a 2 and a single off Ian Holland both down to long leg.
Good fielding from Tom Scriven prevents a boundary.
But they can't stop a fine shot through mid-wicket off the last ball of the over from Nathan Fernandes who now has three boundaries.
De Caires 2 Fernandes 9
Middlesex get going in the third over, bowled by Ben Green.
Nathan Fernandes hits the first two boundaries of the match.
The first shot isn't perfectly timed but goes to the offside boundary.
The second is a bold drive.
De Caires 2 Fernandes 1

BBC Radio London commentator
Just got a hand and well, should he have held on is the question?
It would've been a comfortable chance for a third slip.
But for a second...
De Caires 2 Fernandes 1
Nathan Fernandes takes a single from the dropped catch and it's a good over from Ian Holland despite bowling one wide.
The ground is far from full but it's a good atmosphere.
Middlesex 4-0
Tough chance as Nathan Fernandes edges to second slip.
Ajaz Patel gets a hand to it but can't hold on.
De Caires 2, Fernandes 0
Decent first over from Ben Green who beats the bat of Josh de Caires with the last ball.
De Caires got off the mark with two from a leading edge as Nick Kelly failed to stop it at backward point.
Kelly makes amends with a good stop two balls later.
De Caires 0 Fernandes 0
