Glamorgan made a little bit of club history on Sunday when they won a third successive Championship game with a day to spare, beating Middlesex by 10 wickets at Sophia Gardens.

And coach Richard Dawson was full of praise for debutant Matthew Kuhnemann as the Australian's six wickets enabled them to bowl the visitors out for 235 after asking them to follow on.

"Matt controlled the scoreboard for us straightaway, but he was also a wicket-taking threat and the way he started his spell was exceptional," Dawson told BBC Sport Wales.

"Since after the third game, when we had the break, we made a few changes on how we wanted to play four-day cricket and we've controlled the first two days of the games, put the pressure on the opposition. How we've responded has been really pleasing and the lads can be proud of themselves."

Tom Lammonby had looked in great nick without making it to three figures so far this season before Somerset's win over Hampshire yesterday, but has kept his place at number three, bar opening because of Sean Dickson's injured finger in the second innings at the Oval.

Tom Abell however has been moved around from his usual position of four to allow James Rew to bat higher up, but Abell himself has been low on runs by his great standards.

For the two Toms, to get Somerset over the line so effortlessly was a real benefit for Somerset fans so they could enjoy a restful bank holiday Sunday and Monday.

After the win was sealed, Lammonby said of his former skipper: "I love batting with Tom and I'd do it forever if I could. I always cherish it."

"I think I've changed a lot and learned a lot, which has put my all-round game in a good stead and I'll look to continue to do that."

Leicestershire's Lewis Hill believes their current side is the best he has played for since his debut 10 years ago.

They consolidated their place at the top of Division Two on Sunday with an innings-and-three-runs win over Lancashire, who many thought were promotion favourites this season.

“Having five seamers gives us a chance to rotate and the way they bowl as a pack, they are relentless, bowling for each other, sticking to their plans. They do not give the batters any kind of let-up and they have been like it all season for us," said Hill, who scored 119.

“This season’s side has to be the best I’ve played in during my time at the club, on performances and the quality of players. Five wins puts us in a good position, obviously, and four in a row all inside three days is just crazy, but going forward we have to take it game by game, not get ahead of ourselves and just see where it takes us."

Despite the loss of George Hill that has been a decent morning for Yorkshire 63 runs added with eight overs of the new ball safely negotiated.

Matthew Revis has batted well for his 44 and Dom Bess has survived a bit of a barrage, taking a few shots to the body, to walk off bruised but unbowed on 4.

Notts will be wondering about the prospect of bad weather given a few forbidding clouds which are circling the Leeds area but the break will probably do them good, too.

Yorks trail by 224 which is an awful long way off with just four wickets remaining and you feel this partnership has to get to tea unbroken if a draw is to be salvaged.

Still, plenty to play for this afternoon.

Kurtis Patterson drives the final ball of the morning but is denied a boundary by a diving save from Shane Snater.

The Australian takes three, though, as he goes in to lunch 39 not out, with Sam Curran on 17.

Surrey have added 110 for the loss of openers Rory Burns and Dom Sibley and need another 276 to win the game.

Burns and Sibley both fell to spinner Simon Harmer, who is Essex's main threat, both of them stumped trying to give him the charge.

It has been Warwickshire's morning.

Worcestershire have added 102 runs but lost 5 wickets in doing so.

What a terrific morning session it has been on the final day at Wantage Road.

A fabulous first 45 minutes of attacking, entertaining cricket was led by James Sales who eventually perished for 70 while attempting a T20 style scoop shot before seeing his middle stump dislodged.

After a crashing six from Lewis McManus signalled a declaration from captain Luke Procter, Gloucestershire were set a daunting total of 350 to win.

In reply, they have lost Ben Charlesworth and Ollie Price and will return after the lunch period needing another 296 to win in an unlikely run chase.

It's been a session that has belonged to the visitors with some more excellent swing bowling doing the trick for Warwickshire on a difficult and unpredictable track.

Worcestershire need another 166 runs to win with just three wickets at hand as the Bears close in on a derby victory they will hold dear.

Matthew Waite has played well for the hosts, playing some lovely shots into the off side, on the way to 38 not out and he will return to the crease after lunch with Ben Allison who is currently 4 not out.

We will be back in just over half an hour for what looks likely to be the conclusion of this one.

Gloucestershire have rallied since the fall of the second wicket with Cameron Bancroft and Miles Hammond steadying the ship.

50 comes up for the visitors.

I am looking out to the west over the apartments, I do not think it is going to be very much, but there is a little drizzle in the air.

George Drissell sadly was not picked for Durham's game with Somerset that finished yesterday, so Raine and Drissell puns were put on hold for this round!

Worcs 150-7 (target 327) v Warwicks

Soon after the fall of Ethan Brookes' wicket, a single from Matthew Waite (34 not out) brings up Worcestershire's 150.

They still require 177 more to win this one, however, with just three wickets remaining.

Spin from both ends at The Oval. Here comes Matt Critchley.

Poor shot by Sam Curran who slices one into the off-side. Fortunately for him, it wasn't anywhere near a fielder and he adds two.

There is a pretty grim mood around New Road, a grey cloud metaphorically, if not physically.

There is quite a lot of wind expected this afternoon, up to 30mph apparently.

Cloud building in the south west but not with sufficient pace to influence this game, and no doubt Warwickshire deserve to win it.

Surrey 122-2 (target 418) v Essex

Jamie Porter tries out Sam Curran with a short one and he pulls it away over the head of the fielder at deep mid-wicket for a maximum. Just for a moment there, Essex thought it was going to be a catch. But it wasn't.

Just when you thought Worcestershire were getting a bit of a foot hold, Bamber gets a bit of fortune with one keeping low.

But no better sight for a fast bowler, he looked pretty delighted with that and has 1-37.

Clive Eakin
BBC CWR Sport

It looked like it kept rather low.

Bamber gets his 23rd wicket of the season, Brookes batted well, but when those low ones come along they are just simply going to beat you!
