Law: Broken finger
Lancashire must again do without captain Stuart Law when they entertain Nottinghamshire in the County Championship.
Law broke his right index finger in the nets prior to the draw against Yorkshire and is not yet fit to return.
Wicketkeeper Luke Sutton leads the side in the Australian's absence.
Mohammad Yousuf has finished his stint as overseas player and returned home to Pakistan, opening the door for former skipper Mark Chilton to be recalled.
The Red Rose county are still without Glen Chapple (groin), Andrew Flintoff (side strain) and Steven Mullaney (lower back), while James Anderson is on England duty.
Nottinghamshire look likely to name an unchanged line-up as they return to County Championship action after a two-week break.
All-rounder Mark Ealham is the only doubt for the trip to Old Trafford to face
Lancashire in Division One so 19-year-old seam bowler Luke Fletcher is standing by for his championship debut should Ealham not be passed fit.
Former New Zealand all-rounder Andre Adams is laid low with a virus while
Stuart Broad and Ryan Sidebottom are on England duty.
