Worcs 182 & 33-1 v Notts 207
Mo Abbas returns to the attack and starts his second spell with a maiden.
Three slips in for Josh Tongue, who has Jake Libby playing and missing outside off.
A leg side ball is glanced fine past the keeper for four and Libby is on 21.
Much better line after that and Libby blocks down the ground.
The fifth ball is driven to long off for two.

Abbott c Hudson-Prentice b Unadkat 5 (Sussex 122 v Hants 226 & 134-9)
Image source, Getty ImagesRuns for Kyle Abbott, who biffs a powerful drive off Jaydev Unadkat down the ground for four.
He fetches the next ball from outside off and lofts a catch to Fynn Hudson-Prentice at square leg.
Sussex will be batting tonight, surely.
Unadkat has 4-35 and eight in the match.
Eddie Jack is last in for Hampshire.
for Rory Burnspublished at 16:21 British Summer Time
Surrey 246 & 88-0 v Warwickshire 248
Image source, Rex FeaturesBack-to-back half-centuries for Surrey skipper Rory Burns, though he'll certainly look to improve on his first innings 52 in these helpful conditions.
It feels like the game is slipping away from Warwickshire.
Five fours and a six in his 88-ball knock, the fifth four being cracked through the covers off Ethan Bamber to bring up the milestone.
He's been completely untroubled. Ominous.

Edavalath LBW b Tongue 9 (Worcs 182 & 26-1 v Notts 207)
Josh Tongue strikes in the 11th over.
Rehaan Edavalath is beaten trying to block from the crease and is struck in front of off stump.
Kashif Ali will take guard next.
for Matt Critchleypublished at 16:14 British Summer Time
Essex 229-3 v Durham 333
Image source, Rex FeaturesMatt Critchley is the ideal batter to come in to up the run-rate a bit in the pursuit of bonus points with Dean Elgar.
He has picked up his half-century from 56 balls with a lovely straight drive off Ben Raine for his eighth four to go with a six.
The deficit is down to 104. They might even have a lead tonight at this stage.

Worcs 182 & 26-0 v Notts 207
Too good from Dillon Pennington, who has Jake Libby pinned to the crease, playing and missing an attempted forward block.
The ball goes through to the keeper.
Runs are emphatically not flowing at New Road and the lead is stuck on one run.
Postpublished at 16:13 British Summer Time
Essex 225-3 v Durham 333
Dean Elgar cracks his 15th four through mid-wicket off Colin Ackermann to move to 106*.
Essex have had a near perfect day, in truth, picking up two wickets in the first half an hour and then pacing this innings perfectly, nudging the run rate from two, to 2.5, to three, to now north of 3.5 an over.

Middx 250-6 v Derbys 283
Middlesex have their first batting point as Leus du Plooy eases a ball from spinner Jack Morley out to deep mid-wicket for a single. He progresses to 78 not out.
for Shan Masoodpublished at 48 overs
Leics 213-3 v Glos 482
Image source, Rex FeaturesZaman Akhter bounds in but that is too straight and Shan Masood turns it away for four to reach 50 off 69 balls. It's the sixth boundary of his innings and he and Lewis Hill have now added 127.

Barker c Coles b Unadkat 17 (Sussex 122 v Hants 226 & 126-8)
Brilliant catch at second slip!
A handy partnership of 37 is broken by Jaydev Unadkat, who has Keith Barker shaping to drive through cover from the crease and the ball is taken low by James Coles.
Time for Kyle Abbott to have a bat.
Postpublished at 16:09 British Summer Time
Worcs 182 & 26-0 v Notts 207
Close call for Jake Libby on 15, who survives an LBW shout off Dillon Pennington in the eighth over.
Hit in line but that ball appears to be angling past leg.
Josh Tongue is really firing it in from the other end and Rehaan Edavalath is well forward to defend.
He tries to cut a short ball that follows him and nearly brushes his eyebrows. No run.
The Pears lead by one.
'A lovely afternoon to have a bat'published at 16:08 British Summer Time
Surrey 246 & 74-0 v Warwickshire 248
Mark Church
BBC Radio London commentatorI've seen enough of this Surrey squad over the past few years to know that the one thing that they are very good at is spotting an opportunity in the game.
Now if they could get that run rate up a touch in this last session - not by doing anything out of the ordinary - it would put all the pressure back on Warwickshire.
It's a lovely afternoon to have a bat as well now.
Second batting point for Somersetpublished at 100 overs
Somerset 300-5 v Yorks
Image source, Getty ImagesTom Abell takes the pace off the ball with soft hands as he pushes Dan Moriarty to point and jogs through for a single to take Somerset's total to 300. He is now 71 not out.

Essex 214-3 v Durham 333
Matt Critchley is in the Essex driving seat after tea, with Dean Elgar content to sit on his 100* where he has been since before tea.
Critchley has moved to 41* with a couple of nice boundary strokes and Essex are 36 shy of a first batting bonus point.

Sussex 122 v Hants 226 & 122-7
Keith Barker has one hand off the bat as he works the first ball of the Jaydev Unadkat over leg side.
Shot! Round the wicket, too full and stroked through cover for four by James Fuller.
Single steered to cover.

Sussex 122 v Hants 226 & 116-7
Keith Barker will face Jaydev Unadkat first up in this session on 14 with James Fuller on 17.

Sussex 122 v Hants 226 & 116-7
Adrian Harms
BBC SussexAn all action afternoon session with Hampshire scoring 116 and Sussex taking seven wickets.
Hampshire are still in the box seat, leading by 220 on a wicket offering plenty of assistance to both seamers and spinners.
With neither side earning any batting bonus points, the loser of this game will only take three points from the match and have them anxiously looking towards the relegation zone with two games to play

Surrey 246 & 67-0 v Warwickshire 248
A leg-side clip from Rory Burns off Michael Booth picks up another four. He and Dom Sibley have looked thoroughly unruffled in these 24 overs.
Warwickshire need to break this partnership, soon.
If they can conjure a win they will be in the title fight. Anything else and a podium finish will be the best they can hope for.
