  1. 'Steady progress for Notts'

    Warwicks 93 v Notts 243-5

    Phil Britt
    BBC Coventry & Warwickshire

    It's been steady progress for Nottinghamshire in the first hour. From their point of view, the main thing is that they've not lost any wickets and they've extended that lead.

  2. wicket

    WICKET

    Dawson c Vaughan b Lammonby 72 (Somerset 184 v Hants 256-5)

    Second wicket of the day for Somerset and it's Tom Lammonby again who strikes.

    Liam Dawson looks to hit off the back foot but hits it straight at Archie Vaughan at backward point who makes a good catch.

    Big wicket for the visitors.

  3. wicket

    WICKET

    Davis c Byrom b Kellaway 16 (Middx 409-7 v Glamorgan 199)

    Another for Ben Kellaway who is ripping through the Middlesex middle order.

    Jack Davies reaches for a sweep from outside off stump and succeeds only in mistiming it low to widish midwicket where Eddie Byrom takes a low tumbling catch to his right.

  4. Essex 179 & 277-7 v Worcs 202

    Jacob Duffy overpitches at the end of his latest over and Shane Snater thumps it past mid-on for four runs.

    A handy batter when he's in the mood, Mr Snater, and the Essex lead is now north of 250.

  5. Warwicks 93 v Notts 239-5

    Haseeb Hameed has looked moved into the 90's for Nottinghamshire, tucking away a loose delivery down to third man for four.

  6. 'Harmer's looking pretty comfortable'

    Essex 179 & 270-7 v Worcs 202

    Frank Watson
    BBC Hereford & Worcester

    So far so good for Essex and for Simon Harmer in particular looking pretty comfortable out there.

  7. 350 up for Kent

    Kent 354-8 v Glos 472

    Kashif Ali helps a short ball from Matt Taylor down to fine leg for four as Kent pass 350 in the 90th over at the Spitfire Ground.

    Ali is eight not out and Ben Compton has 166.

  8. Record stand comes to an end

    Durham 303-3 v Yorkshire 307

    Martin Emmerson
    BBC Radio Newcastle

    Alex Lees and Emilio Gay have broken Durham's record for a second-wicket stand in first-class cricket.

    Moments after Lees hit Matthew Revis' first ball of the day for six, he was caught by Ben Sears at long leg, following a top edge off the third ball of the over.

    It ended a stand with Gay of 279, which is five more than the partnership achieved by Mark Stoneman and Scott Borthwick, in 2014 against Middlesex.

    Revis then got Colin Ackermann for an eight-ball duck in his next over. He was caught behind by Jonny Bairstow.

    Gay has 120 and Durham now trail Yorkshire by four runs.

  9. wicket

    WICKET

    Geddes c Northeast b Kellaway 83 (Middx 402-6 v Glamorgan 199)

    Ben Kellaway strikes again to remove a second set batsman, Ben Geddes undone by the spin and chipping an easy catch to midwicket where Sam Northeast takes the catch.

  10. Division Two update

    Rehan Ahmed is still out there for Leicestershire at Old Trafford and has added 26 runs to his overnight tally - now standing on 87 not out as his side have moved on to 173-1 following Lancashire's effort of 263 all out.

  11. wicket

    WICKET

    Ackermann c Bairstow b Revis 0 (Durham 303-3 v Yorks 307)

    Another for Matthew Revis and a fine catch too... and if ever the perils of sitting in your pads for the best part of a day were in evidence that was it.

    A 279-run partnership is brought to an end in one over and Matthew Revis is back in his next to dismiss a rusty Colin Ackermann.

    The Durham man dangled a bat at one which seams off the pitch and Jonny Bairstow takes a good catch behind the stumps, diving in front of first slip.

  12. Essex 179 & 265-7 v Worcs 202

    Simon HarmerRex Features

    New balls can come off the face of the bat quicker and Simon Harmer cracks the first delivery of Matthew Waite's latest over through backward point for four.

    The South African's timing is perfect two balls later as he clips the right-arm seamer for another to mid-wicket.

    Harmer is 28 not out and the lead is 242.

  13. Division Two update

    Ben Compton is still there at Canterbury, now 160 not out in Kent's 342-8 after 87 overs against Gloucestershire. The home side' deficit is currently 130.

    Luke Procter reverse sweeps Jack Morley for four as Northants reach 271-3 after 74 overs against Derbyshire. Procter is now 114 not out, with partner Rob Keogh on 36.

  14. wicket

    WICKET

    Gubbins lbw Lammonby 82 (Somerset 184 v 234-4)

    After facing a couple of wide ones, Nick Gubbins is done by a full straight ball from Tom Lammonby which hits him full on the pads and it's an easy decision for the umpire who raises his finger.

    After an excellent innings, Gubbins is applauded back to the pavillion by the home fans.

  15. wicket

    WICKET

    Lees c Sears b Revis 172 (Durham 301-2 v Yorks 307)

    Durham captain Alex LeesRex Features

    Durham captain Alex Lees

    A fine catch at deep backward square from Ben Sears ends a huge innings from Alex Lees.

    The Durham skipper, formerly of a Yorkshire parish of course, had just brought up the home side's 300 despatching a flat, pulled six over backward square leg off the bowling of Matthew Revis

    But his attempt to repeat the dose two balls later is not timed as well and Ben Sears scurries in from the rope to take a well-judged catch diving forward 25 yards in.

    It brings to an end a partnership of 279 between Lees and Emilio Gay.

  16. new ball

    New ball taken at Chelmsford

    Essex 179 & 256-7 v Worcs 202

    Just a couple for Shane Snater off Matthew Waite.

    Time for the new ball and the reintroduction into the attack of Jacob Duffy.

    Essex lead by 233 - how quickly can Worcestershire polish off these three remaining wickets?

    Duffy starts with one way wide of off stump which Simon Harmer ignores.

  17. 'Thain wicket was bonus for Worcestershire'

    Essex 179 & 256-7 v Worcs 202

    Frank Watson
    BBC Hereford & Worcester

    That wicket was a bit of a bonus for Worcestershire because Ethan Brookes was trying to get through the over before the new ball is due but he's picked up that wicket.

  18. 100 runs

    100 up for Surrey

    Sussex 435 v Surrey 101-1

    Surrey still trail by 334 but this has been a solid enough start from Ollie Pope and Dom Sibley despite a very good opening spell from Jayden Seales.

    The West Indies quick is finding a little bit of movement through the air and has just come very close to finding Sibley's outside edge.

  19. Warwicks 93 v Notts 226-5

    A beautiful drive from Haseeb Hameed off the back foot through extra cover goes for four and puts him on to 84 not out.

    Shot of the day so far at Edgbaston from Hameed.

  20. Somerset 184 v Hants 233-3

    Too much width from Somerset's Tom Lammonby, in his first over of the day, and Nick Gubbins expertly guides one down behind square for four to move on to 77.

    That was picture perfect from Gubbins.
