Lancs v Northants 244-4

Saif Zaib is forward to Tom Hartley to clip the spinner through mid wicket for a single and that's a fine half century from the Northants number six.

That's his first 50 of the season after a quiet season opener at home to Kent and also his 11th half century for Northants.

70 balls and seven fours.

Zak Crawley's tricky start to the season has continued as he lasted just four balls before being pinned in front by Toby Roland-Jones.

The duck follows the Kent and England opener's 1 and 31 in the opening-round win at Northants.

Ryan Higgins has also picked up the scalp of skipper Daniel Bell-Drummond as Kent have fallen to 9-2 in reply to Middlesex's 222.

Cam Bancroft has 123 and Ollie Price 87 as Gloucestershire have reached 264-1 at home to Glamorgan - an unbrroken 202 runs for the second wicket.

Leicestershire are continuing to turn the screw against Derbyshire, moving to 299-5 with a half-century for Peter Handscomb.

Sibley goes bigpublished at 16:47 British Summer Time 11 April

Surrey 217-6 v Hants

Well, who saw this coming?

Hampshire's most frugal bowler, Liam Dawson, is taken down by Surrey's most watchful batter as Dom Sibley takes a little step forward and swipes the spinner over deep mid wicket.

Jayden Seales and Sean Hunt climb over the 250 mark to grab a first (and quite possibly final) batting point.

But the hosts look well short of a respectable total on a track they chose to bat on even with one partnership still to contribute its full weight.

You never know though and at least they seem likely to have a crack at Somerset's top order tonight which could see them break the openers.

Durham have got themselves in a spot of bother after tea, losing three wickets for five runs in just two overs.

It all began when Colin Ackermann slog-swept Tazeem Ali to Hamza Shaikh on the legside boundary when on 18. Will Rhodes, who made 10 and two on his debut last weekend, went for a third ball duck, bowled by Ali.

Then Ben Raine missed one when he was on four and was bowled by Vishwa Fernando. He could have been out first ball after edging an Ali delivery straight through the legs of leg slip.

Last weekend Durham lost their last five wickets for just 21 runs at Notts and didn't recover from that. I feel they are going to leave plenty of runs out there today as well.

But in Ben McKinney they have hope. The opener has been steady and has 93 runs.

Yorkshire 277-4 v Worcestershire

George Hill picks up his 14th first class half-century by hooking a short ball to third for his 10th four.

It's taken him just 71 balls to get there, and he's also brought up the unbroken century stand for this fifth wicket with Dawid Malan.

James Sales keeps the strike, nudging Anderson Phillip through square leg for one.

Left arm spinner Tom Hartley will resume the bowling from the other end and Michael Jones dives to stop a drive passing him at extra cover.

Sales gets one to mid off and moves on to 86.

Two more to Zaib past mid off and he'll keep the strike with a single to mid on and now he's on 48.

Spinner Liam Dawson has been hard to get away.

Jordan Clark drives through the on side but is comfortably picked up at mid on.

Dawson has bowled 11 overs for just 14 runs.

Runs for Dom Sibley, who strokes Brad Wheal through mid on for three.

And Notts are back off and running with an edged four from the bat of Fergus O'Neill off Noah Thain.

Two balls later Simon Harmer puts O'Neill down on 31 at second slip.

The ball was moving in the air after it hit the edge and it was a sharp chance to his left but a drop nonetheless.

Lancashire need early wickets, or at minimum stem the flow of runs from the bats of James Sales (83 not out) and Saif Zaib, who is unbeaten on 43.

The sixth wicket pair have added 75 in 17 overs.

Zaib will face West Indies pace bowler Anderson Phillip to get the session of play started.

The outfield has been descended upon by plenty of spectators during the Old Trafford tea break.

They are probably reflecting on the news about Sir James Anderson and lamenting him not being in the Lancashire side today.

He was doing some fitness work at lunchtime before this afternoon's announcement and without him in the team, Lancashire have toiled after lunch, conceding 145 runs in 34 overs.

Still, we're in April, it's not even Easter and we have glorious weather for a game of cricket.

What is there to complain about?

Sibley gets an inside edge safely into the on side for a single.

Jordan Clark leaves a quick away seaming ball outside off, then defends subsequent deliveries down the ground to see out the over.

Sibley turns the first ball of the Liam Dawson over into the on side to bring up the Surrey 200 in the 66th.

Ben Allison takes the first over after tea and George Hill clips away through the leg side for four from the first ball to move to 43.

More of the same for the Pears...
