  1. wicket

    WICKET

    Muyeye c Tribe b TVDG 4 (Kent 23-4 v Glamorgan 549-9 dec)

    Another one gone at Canterbury.

    Tawenda Muyeye pushes forward to Timm van der Gugten, the ball takes the inside edge and a bat-pad chance flies to Asa Tribe at short leg.

  2. wicket

    WICKET

    Bartlett c Hartley b Williams 8 (Northants 238 & 19-2 v Lancs 276)

    Without delay, Will Williams takes his revenge for that six.

    Two balls after George Bartlett flayed him out of the ground, the Lancashire seamer digs one in that climbs and takes the shoulder of the bat, looping off for the gully fielder to grab.

    James Sales comes out with Northamptonshire still 19 behind and already two wickets down.

  3. Northants 238 & 19-1 v Lancs 276

    That's quite a shot from George Bartlett, who whips Will Williams off his hip and over the old signal box at Wantage Road for six.

    No question of that ball being retrieved in a hurry, so the umpires will go and bring out a replacement.

    Bartlett has eight and Luke Procter 10.

  4. Warwickshire reach 600

    Warks 600-5 v Surrey

    When was the last time Surrey conceded 600 runs in a Championship innings? More recent than you might think - Hampshire scored 608-6 declared last summer.

    Three fours for Zen Malik in the same Cameron Steel over bring up that milestone for Warwickshire, who - we should remind you - have only lost one wicket so far today, Tom Latham for 184.

    Malik is now 64 not out and Ed Barnard has 158.

  5. wicket

    HANTS 196 ALL OUT

    Abbott c McCann b Ahmed 67 (Notts 333 v Hants 196, trail by 137 runs)

    Kyle Abbott's entertaining and powerful knock comes to an end with a slightly underpowered slog to long on to bring the Hampshire innings to an end.

    Freddie McCann took a few steps to his left before pouching a simple grab a few yards inside the rope and the deficit on Notts first innings is 137.

    That seems pretty significant on a pitch where wickets for both sides have fallen with regularity but we will see what the second half of this game has in store.

  6. wicket

    WICKET

    Bell-Drummond c Ingram b TVDG 3 (Kent 18-3 v Glamorgan 549-9 dec)

    This must be a very big shock to the collective Kent system, having chased the ball around the outfield for four and a bit sessions.

    DBD pushes forward to Timm van der Gugten and that is a comfortable catch for Colin Ingram at first slip.

  7. Essex 123 v Yorks 216 & 6-0

    Two innings completed midway through day two - so will we see the clatter of wickets continue?

    Not just yet in this Yorkshire second innings, with Adam Lyth caressing a cover drive for four off Jamie Porter, although the bowler also spears one in that zips through and just past the stumps.

    The visitors lead by 99 overall.

  8. 150 runs

    for Ed Barnard

    Warks 578-5 v Surrey

    Ed Barnard drives to mid-off, takes a single and has 150 not out from 224 balls.

    Zen Malik's maiden 50 arrives from the very next delivery - it has taken him 76 balls.

  9. wicket

    WICKET

    Singh c Hayes b Clark 0 (Sussex 284 v Worcs 111-8)

    They are falling like ten pins here at Hove and that is a third wicket in 10 deliveries.

    Tom Clark was looking for the lbw but Fateh Singh has clipped it off his pads but straight to widish midwicket where James Hayes takes a tumbling low catch.

  10. Warks 577-5 v Surrey

    Ed Barnard tucks Nathan Smith for a single and moves to 149 not out.

    This is now Warwickshire's third highest County Championship score against Surrey, having recently beaten their 571 at Edgbaston in 2012 - and they are not far off the 585-7 at The Oval in 1905.

  11. wicket

    WICKET

    Waite c Simpson b Hudson-Prentice 0 (Sussex 284 v Worcs 110-7)

    And another for Fynn Hudson-Prentice who takes two in four balls.

    If you had dozed just for a second you could have sworn you were watching a replay of Ethan Brookes's wicket because that was exactly the same.

    For the record the previous post said "pushing half-heartedly at a delivery aimed at a virtual fourth of fifth stump and edging to John Simpson" and we see no reason to change it.

  12. wicket

    WICKET

    Brookes c Simpson b Hudson-Prentice 20 (Sussex 284 v Worcs 110-6)

    Bit of a tame dismissal with Ethan Brookes pushing half-heartedly at a delivery aimed at a virtual fourth or fifth stump and edging to John Simpson.

  13. wicket

    WICKET

    Vasconcelos c Hurst b Bailey 0 (Northants 238 & 0-1 v Lancs 276)

    Ricardo Vasconcelos ended the Lancashire innings on a high, with two catches - but that hasn't spilled over into Northamptonshire's second dig.

    The left-hander is drawn into a shot by Tom Bailey's perfect line and length and he's caught behind for a fourth-ball duck.

  14. wicket

    WICKET

    Compton c Kellaway b Harris 7 (Kent 12-2 v Glamorgan 549-9 dec)

    You can't keep Ben Kellaway out of this game.

    Ben Compton is squared up by a good ball from James Harris and the ball flies to Kellaway at gully, where he takes the catch.

    Compton gestures at the pitch as he walks off - but there wasn't much wrong with it during Glamorgan's innings.

  15. 'Yorkshire with a healthy lead'

    Essex 123 v Yorks 216

    Jonathan Doidge
    BBC Radio Leeds cricket commentator

    It's a brilliant effort from George Hill.

    They'll be delighted, having been in the position they were in but Yorkshire have themselves a healthy lead.

    They were in a difficult position 24 hours ago but they've worked really hard to get themselves into the position they're in now.

  16. 50 runs

    50 for Abbott

    Notts 333 v Hants 183-9

    The situation might not be too good for Hants but the entertainment value has been notched up by Kyle Abbott's cameo.

    The South African has his half century with a crunched four through the covers off Brett Hutton.

    It has taken just 36 deliveries with seven fours and two sixes and has been wonderful to watch.

  17. wicket

    WICKET

    Wheal c Verreynne b James 6 (Notts 333 v Hants 178-9)

    Similar dismissal to that of Fletcha Middleton before lunch as it gets big on Brad Wheal as he tries to pull and flicks up for a simple catch to Kyle Verreyne.

    That is maximum bowling points for Notts with a ninth wicket and the end looks nigh for the visitors who are still six short of taking the follow on off the table.

  18. 6 runs

    Warks 559-5 v Surrey

    Nathan Smith is too full on leg stump and Zen Malik effortlessly flicks it over mid-wicket for a maximum.

    Having made an unbeaten 49 on debut last week, Malik will be looking for a first half-century here as he moves to 45 not out.

  19. ESSEX ALL OUT FOR 123

    Essex 123 v Yorks 216

    George Hill, YorkshireRex Features

    Make that six for George Hill... he hasn't got any runs so far in this game, but he's more than earned his keep with the ball.

    Kasun Rajitha lasts just three deliveries before Hill traps him leg before to finish with figures of 6-51.

    It means Yorkshire have a very healthy first-innings lead of 93.

  20. 'A key wicket for Sussex'

    Sussex 284 v Worcs 97-5

    Adrian Harms
    BBC Sussex

    That's really the breakthrough that Sussex wanted. That's a huge wicket to get rid of the New Zealand Test player and all of a sudden Worcestershire are in trouble.

    Fynn Hudson-Prentice has the knack of picking up these important wickets.
