Somerset v Durham 33-3
Martin Emmerson
BBC Radio NewcastleWe have only had nine overs so far in Taunton, amid the showers, but that's been enough for Somerset to take three wickets. And it should have been four!
You have to strike while the iron's hot with this Kookaburra ball and Somerset put Durham in - on a green top - and did just that.
Craig Overton was on a hat-trick in the sixth over after he got Emilio Gay for 10 and Colin Ackermann first ball, both caught in the slips.
David Bedingham saw off the hat-trick ball but then fell in Lewis Gregory's first over when he edged to the 'keeper on one.
That brought Ollie Robinson to the middle. He should have gone for a second ball duck, but Overton dropped him at second slip off Gregory's bowling.
Then it rained and they all went off again. It's now chucking it down!

Somerset v Durham

BBC Radio NewcastleThe toss is now scheduled to take place at 10.45am and play is set to begin at 11.15am. We have had a delay because of a heavy shower earlier and the forecast suggests we could be dodging a few more throughout the day.
It will be interesting to see which two overseas players Durham go with this week. David Bedingham and Codi Yusuf have returned from international duty with South Africa. Yusuf has signed a new short-term contract until September.
But former New Zealand bowler Neil Wagner is also here. He managed part of one game for Durham last season. That was against Notts but he injured his shoulder during it and that was that.
