  1. Somerset 338 v Sussex 88-4

    Sussex skipper John Simpson finally gets himself off the mark on his 10th ball, punching down the ground for two from Josh Davey.

    Opener Daniel Hughes is holding up an end well for the visitors and is on 32 from 78 balls.

    These two are going to have to try and really dig in here.

  2. Surrey 177-2 v Yorkshire 255

    Oof, maybe this change of ball is just doing something for Yorkshire.

    Jack White gets one to nip back off the seam and it has Dan Lawrence in a bit of trouble.

    Not sure if he got a tiny nick on it but wicket-keeper Jonny Bairstow wasn't able to make the catch regardless due to how much it moved.

    A few balls later, Lawrence tries to thrash one through the leg side and immediately clutches at his back. He's still in pain with that injury.

  3. 150 runs

    150 up for Warwickshire

    Warwicks 152-7 v Hants 300

    It's been hard work, but the Bears reach another little milestone as they bring up 150.

    Ed Barnard pounces on a short, wide loosener from James Fuller and lifts it over Liam Dawson at cover for his fourth boundary.

    He goes to 29 and has put on 32 with Ethan Bamber (11).

    The hosts really need to get the deficit down into double figures as a bare minimum. but it still looks a long way off.

  4. Worcs 358 v Essex 84-4

    Am I the only person totally underwhelmed by the current (and recent) Essex performances? So many pundits had them as favourites for the title. However, it seems that the bowling attack is blunt, and the batting pretty unfit for purpose.

    John, frustrated Essex fan in Norfolk

    What do you think Essex fans? Do you agree with John?

    Essex had the Pears where they wanted them yesterday but let them off the hook a little in the latter part of the day and are now struggling with the bat.

  5. Surrey 177-2 v Yorkshire 255

    Yorkshire have managed to get a change of ball for one of a similar age (about 47 overs).

    They'll be hoping it's got a bit more about it than the previous one with their first innings lead now down to only 78 runs.

    Certainly signs that it's moving through the air and slightly off the track from Jordan Buckingham as Kurtis Patterson plays and misses.

  6. 'Lawrence looks a bit more comfy'

    Surrey 177-2 v Yorkshire 255

    Mark Church
    BBC Radio London commentator

    The worry here for Yorkshire is that the run-rate is up to 3.74 an over.

    Dan Lawrence looks a bit more comfy after lunch as well, but still looks like he's feeling his back.

  7. Durham 139-1 v Notts 407

    Ben McKinney is moving through the gears on a good batting pitch as he swats a Brett Hutton bouncer square for his third boundary.

    The Durham opener has moved swiftly to 18 off 16 balls.

    This looks hard work for the Nottinghamshire bowlers.

  8. Middlesex 232 v Leics 118-4

    Ian Holland batting for LeicsRex Features

    Just the six runs added to the total for Leicestershire since the lunch break.

    A case of digging in and not losing any more wickets for a while for the visitors.

    The lead is 114 runs for Middlesex.

  9. 400 up for Lancashire

    Lancs 403-7 v Derbys

    Lancashire have lost another set batter as George Bell edges David Lloyd to Wayne Madsen in the slips to fall for a fine 57.

    But Tom Hartley has guided the Red Rose to 400 after 137 overs and has 19 off 34 balls. He has Tom Bailey for company.

    Just two more wickets before the Burnley Lara joins the fray.

  10. wicket

    WICKET

    Critchley c Roderick b Allison 15 (Worcs 358 v Essex 75-4)

    Ben Allison gets a bit of movement to tie up Matt Critchley who just misjudges it slightly but enough for the ball to find the edge and Essex are four down.

    Allison and Tom Taylor have shared the four Essex wickets equally between them and have been very economical too.

    Robin Das is on 35 not out and is now joined by Michael Pepper with their side in a spot of bother.

  11. wicket

    WICKET

    Bancroft c Muyeye b Stewart 26 (Glos 56-1 v Kent 424)

    A clearly frustrated Cameron Bancroft has to make his way back to the pavilion after becoming the first Glos wicket to fall.

    The Australian looked to be seething with himself in the aftermath of that dismissal.

    Grant Stewart makes the breakthrough after his heroics with the bat, getting Bancroft to edge to Tawanda Muyeye who shows safe hands at first slip.

  12. wicket

    WICKET

    Coles c Overton b Davey 0 (Somerset 338 v Sussex 80-4)

    Sussex are in a bit of trouble.

    It's on a length just outside off stump from Josh Davey and he tempts new batter James Coles to have a nibble at it.

    It flicks the outside edge and flies into the ever-reliable hands of Craig Overton in the slips to see Coles go for a five-ball duck.

    A second catch in the space of about eight minutes for Overton and the visitors are creaking.

  13. dropped catch

    Patterson dropped on 60

    Surrey 165-2 v Yorkshire 255

    Oh dear... How costly could this be for Yorkshire?

    Kurtis Patterson hammers one into the deep behind square on the leg side and James Wharton sees it all the way but puts it down.

  14. Somerset 338 v Sussex 80-3

    Sussex opener Daniel Hughes responds to Tom Alsop getting out by cleverly guiding one down to third man for four off Josh Davey.

    A reminder that Hughes himself was dropped in the slips by Tom Lammonby on eight.

    He picks up another single and moves onto 26 and is halfway to third 50 of the season.

  15. 50 runs

    50 for Alex Lees

    Durham 126-1 v Notts 407

    Durham skipper Alex Lees has looked almost completely untroubled today and brings up his 53rd first-class fifty off 96 balls, with three fours.

    The former England Test opener brings up the landmark with a pull off Brett Hutton for his third half-century of the season. Two of them have come off the Nottinghamshire attack.

    It's laid a super platform for Durham, but we should say Notts reached 133-1 in their first knock before wickets tumbled.

  16. 50 runs

    50 for Ben Kellaway

    Glamorgan 235-4 v Northants 185

    Ben Kellaway joins batting partner Sam Northeast in reaching a half-century.

    Kellaway's came a lot quicker - in 62 balls and 80 minutes.

    The duo are moving towards a 100 partnership too as Glamorgan look to keep building that lead which currently stands at 50.

  17. 'It's another big wicket for them'

    Somerset 338 v Sussex 75-3

    Mark Davis
    Former Somerset seamer on BBC Radio Somerset

    Tom Alsop edges into the slip - Craig Overton doesn't drop many, does he?

    Somerset keep chipping away, it's another big wicket for them.

  18. wicket

    WICKET

    Alsop c Overton b Pretorius 13 (Somerset 338 v Sussex 75-3)

    Another important wicket for Somerset!

    Tom Alsop gets onto the front foot to defend one in the corridor of uncertainty from Migael Pretorius and it catches the outside edge.

    Craig Overton makes no mistake at third slip to take the catch.

    You'd say that's definitely advantage Somerset at this stage with a 263-run lead.

  19. wicket

    WICKET

    Malik b Wheal 8 (Warwicks 120-7 v Hants 300)

    Hampshire turn the screw with a quick wicket after lunch.

    Brad Wheal has bowled well today and angles one back in through the gate to clip the top of Zen Malik's off-stump.

    His brief 13-ball stay comes to an end as the Bears continue to toil.

    They look set for a sizable first-innings deficit. Ethan Bamber is in.

  20. Somerset 338 v Sussex 74-2

    A slow and steady start to the afternoon session in the opening couple of overs for Sussex as they tick along to 74-2.
