Gloucestershire paceman Marchant de Lange has just got the big wicket of Yorkshire skipper Shan Masood for 140 in Bristol.

Yorkshire are now 287-7 and the game is in the balance.

Northants are still going along really well against Middlesex. They're 217-2 with Emilio Gay unbeaten on 125.

In Cardiff Glamorgan are 194-5 against Derbyshire - spinner Alex Thomson has picked up three wickets.

Finally Leicestershire all-rounder Liam Trevaskis has reached his half-century to help his side to 249-5 against Sussex.

Lewis Gregory and Shoaib Bashir scamper a bye off Gus Atkinson and that brings up the 250 and that first batting point.

Nathan Lyon into his 25th over of this innings. Lancashire getting their money's worth from him today.

Liam Dawson sweeps nicely for a couple and this partnership between him and Tom Prest is up to 79.

Cameron Steel throws one up and BANG... Lewis Gregory heaves it over cow corner for six.

Gregory desperately trying to lead his side up to 250 and a batting point.

A splendid innings from Alex Davies.

He has slowed down, he got his 100 in 102 balls, Rob Yates rather took the initiative from there.

150 for Alex Daviespublished at 16:34 British Summer Time 12 April

Warwickshire 358-1 v Durham

A career-best effort for Alex Davies.

He picks up a single off Callum Parkinson to reach 150 for the first time in his first-class career, going past a previous best of 147.

This has taken 181 balls and includes 19 fours and a six.

Rob Yates eventually overtook him, but Davies set the tone for this innings with his pre-lunch positivity.

But if Joe Clarke sticks around, he could well win the day for Notts.

He goes to a hundred against his former side in 168 balls with nine fours and three sixes.

Follows up his 104 against Essex last week.

Hampshire 227-4 v Lancashire

Tom prest shows his growing confidence as he slog sweeps Nathan Lyon for a big six over midwicket.

It's the first of the Hampshire innings as the 21-year-old moves to 65 not out.

Four singles off Parkinson's over sees the total reach 350 and a third batting point.

They have 45 overs to score the 100 runs they need for maximum points with the bat.

Callum Parkinson to bowl to Will Rhodes immediately after tea.

They scored exactly 200 in that session before tea with Rob Yates scoring 131 of them before he was out just before the interval.

Honours about even at tea with Leicestershire adding 96 against tight, accurate Sussex bowling

The morning run rate of 4.6 an over slowed considerably when Rishi Patel was out just after lunch for an excellent 87 off 98 balls, strangled down the leg side by Danny Lamb

Peter Handscomb made a patient 51 before becoming a victim of the off spin of Jack Carson, but Liam Trevaskis on his debut has battled away reaching 30 off 98 balls at the break.

The Middlesex attack was left cursing the Kookaburra ball once again as Northamptonshire continued to dominate proceedings and reached 183-1 from 64 overs after being put in to bat at Wantage Road.

There was precious little help on offer for seamers or spinners with Emilio Gay and Luke Procter carrying their unbroken partnership to 182 at tea - a new Northamptonshire second-wicket record against Middlesex, eclipsing 179 by Stephen Peters and Alex Wakely in 2010.

Gay reached his fifth first-class century off 173 balls while his captain added only 28 in the afternoon to reach 69 not out at the break. But after Northamptonshire's batting tribulations in Division One last season they were delighted to go through an entire session without losing a wicket.

Division One:

Chelmsford: Essex 272-4 v Kent

Utilita Bowl: Hampshire 216-4 v Lancashire

Trent Bridge:Nottinghamshire 223-4 v Worcestershire

The Kia Oval: Surrey v Somerset 231-8

Edgbaston: Warwickshire 346-1 v Durham

Division Two:

Cardiff: Glamorgan 172-4 v Derbyshire

Bristol: Gloucestershire v Yorkshire 243-6

Leicester: Leicestershire 227-5 v Sussex

Northampton: Northamptonshire 183-1 v Middlesex

Just as with the morning session Essex lost two wickets but continued to score at a decent rate.

The two wickets which did fall came as a surprise; Jordan Cox missed a straight ball to fall lbw while centurion Dean Elgar popped-up a simple catch to mid-wicket.

The Kent captain Daniel Bell-Drummond has rotated his bowlers and come-up with some interesting field settings to try to engineer more wickets but the pitch is pretty unresponsive.

Matt Critchley has quietly got himself to 54 and with Paul Walter alongside him this pair will look to build another big stand as they did at Trent Bridge last week.

I have my doubts as to whether Worcestershire gained anything from that period when they tried to go short with with Finch and bounce Clarke out.

That said it doesn't look like an easy pitch to bowl on.

Notts will be very pleased with their decision to bat first.

Who could have forecast this teatime score when Somerset were flying with Matt Renshaw and Tom Lammonby at the crease at 196-1?

From there to 216-8, it has been a champion's response from Surrey and they are now on top heading into the tea break.

Lammonby's 100 feels a long time ago!

Some respite for Durham having dismissed Rob Yates for 191 in that 343-run opening stand.

However, with Alex Davies going strong on 145, Warwickshire are all set for a mammoth score.
