Middlesex skipper Toby Roland-Jones spearheaded the bowling attack with figures of 3 for 44, well supported by Dane Paterson, Ryan Higgins, and Zafar Gohar, who claimed two wickets each. In response, Middlesex reached 118 for 2 by the end of the first session on Day 2, with Nathan Fernandes scoring a composed 58 off 136 and Stephen Eskinazi contributing 39 from 93 deliveries to give their side the upper hand.
