A second career double century for Jake Libby, and the second of this Pears innings to boot.

The stand-in skipper has led by example and brought up his 200 with a leg-side single off Liam Dawson from 399 balls with 16 fours and a six.

He's been at the crease for nine hours and 10 minutes and is closing on his career best of 215 set for the Pears at Sussex in September 2022.

Liam Guthrie bangs the ball in short, but there's very little pace and Harry Finch has plenty of time to pull it for four and reach his sixth first-class hundred.

It has taken him 128 and that is the 14th boundary of his innings.

The stand with Daniel Bell-Drummond (143*) is now worth 180.

Really sharp turn for Jack Leach as the ball comes back between Ben Slater's bat and pads.

It misses the stumps, fortunately for the Notts opener, and keeper James Rew is unable to gather, giving away a bye.

Gloucestershire have taken their first wicket in Cardiff with Zain ul-Hassan caught at long leg from a top-edged pull off Ajeet Singh Dale. Glamorgan are 33-1 - just 347 behind.

Middlesex's eighth-wicket partnership is over, with Joe Cracknell caught off Ben Green for 38 at Leicester. Ben Geddes is still there on 106 not out in a score of 468-7.

Ben Coad wraps up the innings by bowling Khaleel Ahmed with the final ball of the over and that leaves Noah Thain unbeaten on exactly 50, having played a key role in ushering his side above 350.

However, Yorkshire will be buoyed by their performance with the ball today, having collected the last seven wickets for 95. Jack White finishes with 3-68, with Coad, George Hill and Dom Bess taking two wickets apiece.

This has been a really spirited knock from Noah Thain and the youngster is rewarded with the third half-century of his first-class career.

Thain gets there from 81 balls, steering a single down to long on from the fourth ball of Ben Coad's over to try and protect last man Khaleel Ahmed.

Jake Libby has passed nine hours at the crease.

Whatever you think of the pitch, the Kookaburra ball, the weather conditions, the bowling, this is a Herculean effort in sweltering conditions.

He is 192* and closing in on 400 deliveries faced.

Immense powers of stamina and concentration.

Daniel Bell-Drummond pushes Saif Zaib to mid-off, jogs through for one and Kent's total reaches 500 at the Spitfire Ground.

Bell-Drummond is 140 not out, Harry Finch has 88 and they have added 163 for the sixth wicket.

Dom Sibley isn't the only man in this game with 200 plus against his name - spare a thought for luckless Durham spinner George Drissell.

Drissell's figures now read 1-202 after his latest over, in which Will Jacks slammed him for six to take Surrey beyond the 650 mark.

This is also now the county's highest total against Durham, passing their 652-9 declared on this ground 30 years ago.

He had one over before lunch and now Jack Leach is back. A slip and short leg in place for the left-handed Ben Slater.

The first ball is too wide and cut away for four.

Hampshire v Worcestershire 580-5

Just a second half-century of the season for Gareth Roderick, but this will have done him plenty of good.

He's now put on more than 100 with old opening buddy Jake Libby, who has moved onto 190*, and reached his 50 from 114 balls with six fours along the way.

Frustration for Jimmy Anderson, relief for Martin Andersson.

The all-rounder flashes at one outside off and sends an edge between first and second slip, with the ball coming off the hands of second slip, diving to his left, and racing away to the rope.

Andersson is trying to play positively with Anuj Dal supporting at the other end.

Too full by Craig Overton and Ben Slater eases it through the covers for four.

The next ball is much shorter, Slater tries to pull but makes no contact although the Somerset keeper and slips half believe there may have been a glove on that.

No concerted appeal, though.

I did say that if Matt Henry was able to take the wicket of Haseeb Hameed then all those runs that he was leaking would probably be something that Somerset could live with because Hameed is the big scalp.

He has been outstanding for Notts who have plenty more batting to come. Still a crucial breakthrough for Somerset.

Sussex 104-1 v Warwickshire 415

Daniel Hughes might not get his 10,000 steps in today at this rate.

he brings up his half-century from 67 balls with a nice punch through the covers to the short boundary off Oli Hannon-Dalby.

His 11th four. He's barely left his crease.

A landmark for Ben Geddes as he brings up his first century in Middlesex colours, from 167 balls.

Geddes has passed 50 five times since he crossed the Thames last winter, but this is the first of those he's converted into a ton.

He and Joe Cracknell have added 86 so far for the seventh wicket.
