Kent 207 & 70-0 v Hampshire 403

This rain delay looks like it'll be longer than the last one.

Sad as Tawanda Muyeye was going through the gears.

Craig Overton cuts Dan Worrall away nicely and it just beats the despairing dive of Cam Steel on the backward point boundary.

The Somerset man then goes on the drive to the next ball and takes two more.

This pair are both capable of producing a bit of carnage. The last roll of the dice you feel.

Somerset lead by 113.

If the weather holds, we'll be back on at 16:40 BST.

Matty Hurst is back and across to Callum Parkinson, cutting the spinner through point for four.

He's on 12.

Matt Potts is again leg side and the ball drifts off the pad of Josh Bohannon for two leg byes.

A single off the fourth ball, slapped into backward point and half stopped by Bas de Leede.

Four runs to Matty Hurst, steered safely to third man.

It has brightened up a lot at Worcester - and they are going to make a restart at 16:55.

Like good attacking batting?

Then get yourself over to watch Tawanda Muyeye. He is in one of those moods where every aggressive shot he plays (and there are many of them) rockets to the boundary.

Three boundaries in a row off Mo Abbas, of all people.

A hold-the-pose back foot drive. A languid lofted flick over mid-on. A controlled swing over midwicket. All very yummy.

An LBW shout from Callum Parkinson, bowling to Matty Hurst but it's not out.

Playing a defensive shot going forward and hit on the pad just outside the off stump.

Good diving take from Ollie Robinson at the other end after Matt Potts bowls a leg side ball.

Josh Bohannon follows another leg side ball without getting a bat on it.

Maiden over.

There's a few spots of rain on the camera lens and the clouds have snuffed out the sunshine.

James Rew plays out a maiden to Dan Worrall and umpires Steve O'Shaughnessy and David Millns then get together for a chat.

We play on.

BBC Sounds

Remember, if you love listening to the County Championship action, you can now access our ball-by-ball radio commentary on most smart speakers, as well as through the 'Watch & listen' link at the top of this page.

Simply tell your smart speaker to ask BBC Sounds to play the fixture of your choice and the day of play. So, for example, today you could say "ask BBC Sounds to play Somerset v Surrey day three".

The umpires will inspect the playing area at 16:25 BST.

There's still a lot of dark cloud cover and the floodlights are on.

One of the covers has however been removed!

Almost a fifth Glamorgan wicket!

Ben Kellaway clips behind square and is called through for a single by Kiran Carlson.

He misjudges the speed of Henry Crocombe in the field who picks up and hurls at the non-strikers end.

It misses, luckily for Kellaway. A direct hit and he looked in trouble.

The rain has relented and there's blue sky visible again in Essex.

A 16:35 BST restart scheduled as the hosts will try to ram home their advantage in the evening session.
