Tom Hartley has fallen short of his fifty as he goes caught and bowled to Martin Andersson for 42.

It brings Anderson Phillip to the wicket.

James Anderson is next man in. Is that clear?

Jason Roy reminds us all of what he can do with a bat in his hands and slaps away a powerful cover drive for four off Jordan Thompson to move onto 14.

That crossed the rope almost the moment it left Thompson's hand, such was the power behind it.

Surrey were forced to effectively rebuild from scratch when Dan Lawrence and Kurtis Patterson got out in quick succession but they're settling down again with Roy and Ben Foakes.

Hampshire have started strongly here.

There's three slips in place.

This is a big innings now, I think the close of play will give us a good idea of who's on top.

Hampshire have 14 overs to bat before what will be a late tea.

Mark Stoneman and Fletcha Middleton walk to the middle and Ethan Bamber leads the attack for the Bears.

Stoneman fell just short of his fifty first time around, while the out-of-form Middleton went early for four.

A clip through midwicket gets Stoneman off the mark with a single

But Middleton almost goes first ball as a top edge flies just over the top of second slip to the third man boundary.

Middlesex 232 v Leics 153-4

Leicestershire move past the 150 mark and they're slowly closing in on the 232 Middlesex managed in their first innings.

The visitors are just 79 runs behind now and this partnership between Peter Handscomb (52*) and Ian Holland (26*) has been vital.

Northants have had a bit of joy at last against Glamorgan taking two wickets in three overs to dismiss Sam Northeast for 67 and then Ben Kellaway who made an impressive 95.

The duo put on 141 for the fifth wicket and Glamorgan's lead is a healthy looking 139.

Kent have also taken a couple of wickets against Gloucestershire.

Ben Charlesworth fell to Jake Ball for 41 before Ollie Price went lbw to Nathan Gilchrist for 40. Disappointing for both batters to get dismissed within sight of 50.

Jack Leach has recently been brought into the attack for Somerset and Fynn Hudson-Prentice pushes one towards the covers but Tom Lammonby makes an excellent stop, diving to his left to prevent a potential boundary.

That epitomises the performance with the ball and in the field today for the hosts. They're well on top at Taunton.

Emilio Gay aims a big booming drive at Rob Lord, but it's a big play and miss.

Lord has bowled well without luck so far today from his 10 overs.

Gay calms things down and picks up a single off the next ball to move to 22.

Alex Lees does likewise to go to 68.

Liam Patterson-White comes into the attack for the first time today, replacing Freddie McCann.

It's taken him 16 balls to do it but Ben Foakes is finally off the mark for Surrey.

Those two quick wickets of Dan Lawrence and Kurtis Patterson for Yorkshire have really slowed up Surrey's progress.

Jason Roy is five not out.

Essex limp to three figures.

It's been a real challenge for them so far today.

Simon Harmer took 11 balls to get off the mark and Noah Thain is still on 0.

Can these two build any sort of partnership? Something that has been sorely lacking so far.

The Pears are in control.

That's that as the Bears concede a first innings deficit of 106 after a below-par batting display.

Che Simmons gives himself plenty of room for a big swing, but top-edges John Turner through to Hants wicketkeeper Ben Brown.

Full credit to the Hants bowlers mind you, with Brad Wheal (2-49) and the evergreen Kyle Abbott (5-47) doing most of the damage.

Peter Handscomb moves past 50 for Leicestershire, who are making Middlesex work for this fifth wicket.

The partnership between Handscomb and Ian Holland (20*) is now worth 65 runs and is comfortably their biggest of the innings so far.

The visitors just starting to work their way back into it.

Adrian Harms
BBC Sussex

It's another misjudgement, Sussex are in deep trouble.

Extraordinary to see two experienced players leave two balls on the off stump.

A great spell for Overton, if the wickets go down will we see the follow on?

The top order has been absolutely wiped out.

Surrey 201-4 v Yorkshire 255

Surrey have raced along to 200 since lunch and they're now only 54 runs behind Yorkshire but they've lost a few wickets in doing so.

Kyle Abbott may not be as young as he once was but he continues to be a high-class operator.

Ed Barnard plays at a ball outside off-stump which holds its line and takes a faint top edge through to wicketkeeper Ben Brown.

A 44th five-wicket haul for the 37-year-old South African in first-class cricket.

He has 5-45 off 17 overs.

Mohammad Abbas has his hands on his head as he angles one across Emilio Gay.

It turns the batter right round, and comes off a thick edge down to the third man boundary. Gay had no idea where that was heading.

He moves up to 12.
