That's a good bouncer by George Hill and Tom Prest is fortunate as a top-edged pull flies over the keeper and away for four.

A single takes him to 30 not out and Toby Albert clips one down to fine leg for one to go to 15 from 67 balls faced.

Good time for a late afternoon nap at Lord's.

Lancashire are in absolutely no hurry here and although Keaton Jennings and Michael Jones are both capable stroke-makers, the last two overs have been maidens.

Pears skipper Brett D'Oliveira is in for his second over but serves up a juicy full toss and James Rew doesn't miss out.

A reverse sweep brings his first boundary.

If he and Tom Banton get going, perhaps tomorrow, they could quickly put Worcestershire under the pump.

Dom Bess curses his luck as Tom Prest dabs the first ball of a new over down to third man for four.

Prest is 24 not out and there are another seven overs to be bowled after this one.

Surrey are convinced they have the wicket of Michael Pepper.

Wicketkeeper Ben Foakes throws the ball to the skies while Matthew Fisher goes off to celebrate.

Pepper stands his ground and the replay shows the ball takes his thigh pad, just evading the inside edge.

A good umpiring decision that although Surrey may think differently.

It's a deserved reward at last for Dillon Pennington.

Ben Raine was undone when it went under the bat there was an explosion of dust and noise as it clattered into the middle stump.

He is out for 27.

Tom Banton gets down on one knee and sends a half-volley square of backward point for another four off Ethan Brookes.

It moves the hosts past the Pears first innings total with six wickets in hand.

Banton then repeats the dose and finds almost the identical spot on the boundary rope to go to 72.

Essex have managed just eight runs in the five overs since Jordan Cox was dismissed.

We still have seven overs to go in the day.

Nothing like making a good impression in your first innings for a new club.

Australian Caleb Jewell races to 50 off 37 balls as he collects five fours in the same Matt Taylor over - and now has 10 in total.

The left-hander from Tasmania has seven first-class centuries - is he set for another one here?

He probably won't thank us for asking that question.

Fergus O'Neill runs in after shipping 16 from his previous over.

He summons up the energy for an appeal as his second ball thuds into George Drissell's pads. But more in hope than expectation.

Drissell turns the final ball into the legside and jogs through for the single which brings up the Durham 350.

Warks v Sussex 366-5

The Sussex captain came in and has got on with things and goes to a 16th career century in the red ball game.

He has hit 14 boundaries and a six in his 120 balls faced.

He'll be delighted with his own performance but more so with the position his side have got themselves into.

The boldness of youth.

Tom Prest advances down the pitch to the final ball of the latest Dom Bess and despatches over the bowler's head for four.

Prest is 18 not out and partner Toby Albert has 13.

The Kent fightback continues in Northampton with James Sales caught off Jas Singh for four. Saif Zaib and Rob keogh are now together and the home side are 63-4, replying to Kent's 231 all out.

Leicestershire have lost their first wicket in Cardiff with Ian Holland edging Tim van der Gugten to the keeper. They are 23-1 after bowling out Glamorgan for 229.

Similar story at Derby where David Lloyd has just been bowled by Tom Price for 16. The home side are 58-1 in the ninth over after Gloucestershire were all out for 222.

Durham are suddenly rattling along as Fergus O'Neill leaks four leg byes.

Three legitimate successive boundaries follow to George Drissell who is quickly into his 40s.

Warks v Sussex 361-4

The milestones keep coming for Sussex.

Tom Clark and John Simpson have added 200 for the fifth wicket.

There could still be plenty more to come, but don't tell Warwickshire that.

Tom Clark cracks another boundary away and goes to a career-best 139 not out.

What a day the young man is having.

A boundary for Tom Prest off George Hill carries Hampshire into a first-innings lead following their excellent work with the ball - and couple of gift wickets - earlier in the day.

Another 14 overs to go here and the home side would love to see Prest and Toby Albert, two of their younger batting talents, to hold it together to the close.
