A handy 25-run partnership, this, between Ben Cox (15*) and Peter Handscomb, who has 12* from 40 balls.

Are they just turning the tide back in the Foxes favour?

76 needed. Or five wickets.

Surrey 367 v Somerset 283 & 113-7

James Taylor bowls.

Migael Pretorius drives... thick edge to deep third for four and that takes him to a worthy 50!

He has a first class batting average of 29 and that is in fact his second 50 this season.

He got the other one in the second innings v Sussex at Hove.

This one arrives in 43 balls with seven fours.

That has been rapid from Ben Duckett who reaches his half century in 23 balls. Two big sixes (again off Jack Carson) bring him to the brink and a single delivers it.

Dan Lawrence is back into the attack, bowling to Migael Pretorius on 45 not out.

Make that 46 as he is forward to drive through the off side for one.

Lewis Gregory seizes on a bit of width, waits in the crease and cuts to point for four runs.

Gregory survives an LBW shout. Hit on the back pad just outside off.

Josh Shaw drifts onto the legs of Ben Cox who needs no invitation to rattle to the rope to take the required runs down to 80.

They're bowling really well Gloucestershire, they're keeping it tights as Leicestershire did.

The Holland wicket was a big one I think.

It feels like it's on a knife edge.

Notts 300 & 114-1 (target 148) v Sussex 169 & 278

A second half century of the match from the Notts captain who is steering his side to a victory here that will cement his side's position at the top of the Division One table.

It has come in 71 balls and contained eight fours.

James Taylor is into the second over of his spell and Migael Pretorius shovels the ball to fine leg for four more to pass the 40-mark.

He has 43.

He has one hand off the bat next ball, driving to cover point for one.

A no ball follows and Lewis Gregory takes Somerset to 100 in the 32nd over with a drive to backward point off a thick edge for four.

A single to long leg and one more off drive from Pretorius brings one more run.

13 off the over and Somerset lead by 20.

A single off the final delivery of the over from Fynn Hudson-Prentice brings up the hundred and now Ben Duckett is going after Jack Carson again with a swept six and a well-timed cover drive for four.

Another appeal for lbw from Josh Shaw but this one is heading down leg against Peter Handscomb.

Handscomb moves into double figures from 34 deliveries, Ben Cox has 7* from 15 at the other end.

They are nudging their way back into contention, but one more wicket will see the pendulum swing again.

86 needed. Or five wickets.

Lovely shot! Width outside off stump and Migael Pretorius crashes Gus Atkinson through point for four.

That's the 50 partnership for the eighth wicket off 69 balls.

Bouncers follow from round the wicket and Pretorius sways back sharply.

Another short ball but this is a tad leg side and tapped away for one.

88 required by the visitors, who are trying to becalm the Gloucestershire attack in the sunshine.

Feels like Dom Goodman and Ajeet Singh Dale might be back before too much longer...

James Taylor is going to have a bowl.

A single to Lewis Gregory to the off side and Migael Pretorius gets away with a big inside edge off a loose offside shot to fine leg for four.

One more to Gregory to deep cover. Scores level.

Gregory tucks the next ball to square leg for one more and Pretorius repeats the shot for a single of his own.

Somerset are ahead.

Ben Duckett is in a rush now and has despatched Jack Carson for 18 in that over going 4-6-0-4-1-4.

That could be it for Carson unless John Simpson fancies catching the football as well.

Test Match Special commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

It's a funny passage of play this.

Surrey will have to bat again, as we all thought they would.

Somerset are not entirely out the woods but they've managed to get Surrey to bat again.

50 for Ben Geddespublished at 15:00 British Summer Time 27 April

Derbyshire 472 v Middlesex 251-6

... and a batting bonus point.

Ben Geddes brings up his half-century from 80 balls with a clip to fine leg off Blair Tickner and the visitors are 71 shy of the follow-on target.

Two to Gregory with a gentle push down the ground off Gus Atkinson.

Atkinson bowls short and Gregory is back to jab the ball safely into the ground.

The fifth ball is turned behind square leg via a thick inside edge for one.

Migael Pretorius drives with one hand off the bat and the ball is picked up at cover to end the over.

The ball has been hooping about all week at Bristol but Peter Handscomb plays the swing nicely and is only denied a boundary off Josh Shaw by a tumbling stop in the deep from Zaman Akhter, which saves three runs.

Shaw thinks he's got Ben Cox caught behind a couple of balls later but the finger stays down. Maybe the bat hit the ground not the ball. Glos can't believe it, and don't hide their disappointment.

Skipper Cameron Bancroft might be hearing about that in a couple of hours' time...

92 required. Or five wickets.
