Worcestershire win promotion from Division Two
Lancashire on brink of relegation after defeat at Sussex
Victories for Warwickshire and Durham in Division One
BBC Sport's Ged Scott at New Road: Surely Worcestershire cannot pull this one round after all and win promotion today?
A win for Worcestershire would do it, but still lots of work left to do.

"It was terrific to see Ryan Sidebottom, in particular, in such splendid form. Reviving memories of his glory years with Nottinghamshire, he was irresistible on the final morning to spearhead his side's charge to the title.
"Notts may have run out of steam in recent weeks but it's certainly no disgrace to lose to this Tykes team - the battle though is now on for the minor places."
BBC WM 95.6's Mike Taylor at Edgbaston: "Warwickshire's momentum, steadily building over the last couple of months, now makes them favourites to finish runners-up to Yorkshire in the Championship, in addition to their limited-overs exploits.
"The match finished in fairly light-hearted fashion. After Ben Duckett had delayed the Bears with some crafted strokes, especially through the offside, the lower order slogged merrily to the end.
"The fixtures have fallen favourably for the Bears, giving them a clear week to prepare for their Lord's final, before returning here for the final Championship match against Durham. If they win it they'll be assured of second place, though other results could confirm that even before then."
The slightest hope for Worcestershire as Surrey's Steven Davies is dismissed for 14, Jack Shantry the successful bowler.
However, with only 86 runs required for victory and seven wickets remaining, Surrey appear to have this one well in hand.
Leicestershire strike immediately after lunch as Charlie Shreck has Ian Cockbain caught behind for 15, leaving the home side 143-6 in their second innings and 224 runs ahead.
I bet Leicestershire wouldn't mind a cheeky little run chase this afternoon...
BBC Radio Leeds' Dave Callaghan:, external Many thanks to my fellow BBC commentators for their kind words today. So proud to work with such a great set of people.
If you missed it earlier, listen to the moment Ryan Sidebottom took the final Notts wicket to clinch the county title for Yorkshire.
White Rose fans - it is 54 seconds of commentary that you will never tire of hearing.

Gary Ballance and Joe Root have cemented themselves in England's middle order over the course of the summer, plundering runs from Sri Lankan and Indian bowlers, and today they have helped their county end a 13-year wait to be crowned county champions.
Mark in Yorkshire: Just thanked my wife for the best wedding anniversary pressie ever. 33 years today and she arranges for Yorkshire to be crowned county champions. Thanks Kath.

So in the end, it took Yorkshire about an hour of the morning session to take the five Notts wickets they needed to claim the Division One title. Congratulations to all concerned.
And well done, too, to Warwickshire. The Bears are up to second in Division One following their innings win over Northants at Edgbaston.
We will hopefully have some reaction from Trent Bridge shortly, and there are still four matches ongoing. While there remains the prospect of results in those games, we shall continue with our live text commentary.
Hasn't that been an exciting morning? Well, for everyone except Nottinghamshire fans... And there's still much more to come in both the relegation and promotion battles.
While Yorkshire are no doubt having a few beverages unsuitable for children, I can do without all that kerfuffle and think I might grab myself a cheese toastie.
That leaves me to hand over to another Phil, Phil Cartwright that is, who will guide you through the next session, which will no doubt contain more thrills and spills.
Enjoy it fella.
BBC Sussex's Adrian Harms: "Having endured an initial onslaught from Jos Buttler and Steven Croft, where 90 runs came in the first hour, Sussex pegged the visitors back, taking four wickets as Lancashire reached lunch on 328-8, a lead of 214.
"Lancashire will have half an eye on events at Lord's. If Middlesex lose and Lancashire win, Glen Chapple's side will move out of the relegation zone. If Sussex win they are definitely safe in Division One next season. It's all to play for!"
BBC Radio Manchester's Scott Read: "Lancashire get to lunch in the knowledge that a win this afternoon will almost certainly take them out of the relegation zone.
"Losing quick wickets before lunch may not have been the worst thing for Lancashire, as they will need time to bowl Sussex out.
"Tom Smith retiring hurt has not helped their bowling cause, but if the Red Rose are to win, it will be largely down to James Anderson, Glen Chapple and spinner Simon Kerrigan."
Warwickshire have just taken a massive step towards claiming second spot in Division One, after Keith Barker takes his eighth wicket of their match against Northants to see them to an innings victory at Edgbaston.
Neil Wagner is the last man to fall, caught by Jonathan Trott, whose 360-run partnership with Sam Hain helped Warwickshire to a massive 573-9 declared.
The victory moves the Bears above Nottinghamshire into second, 15 points ahead of the Trent Bridge outfit, who will be further dejected by the news from Birmingham.
BBC Look North's Harry Gration:, external Fantastic news from Trent Bridge. Champions again. Well done Andrew Gale, a top captain and a team to be proud of.
Image source, Getty ImagesYorkshire captain Andrew Gale may have been suspended for the game at Trent Bridge, but he has been out and, in his words, done a "John Terry".
He was out celebrating on the pitch with his team-mates shortly after they clinched a first Championship title since 2001.
Yorkshire fans - how will you be celebrating your county's victory? Will there be parties from Northallerton to Sheffield and Rotherham to Keighley?

BBC Radio Leicester's Richard Rae: "Could it? Might it? Will this be the day that Leicestershire win their first County Championship match for two years? And after Gloucestershire scored 646 in their first innings?
"As daft as it sounds, it could happen. The Foxes have picked up five Gloucestershire wickets in the morning session here at Bristol, meaning the home side lead by 224 with five wickets remaining and up to 68 overs left in the day.
"With the pitch still playing well, a draw is still the likeliest result, but a target of around 290 in 55 overs could make proceedings very interesting indeed."
BBC Sport's Ged Scott: "Surrey go into lunch at 122-2, with Zafar Ansari and Steve Davies on 46 and six respectively.
"Vikram Solanki reached a half century on his first return to New Road since leaving Worcestershire at the end of the 2012 season. It was a first 50 for Solanki back at Worcester since May 2012 (for the home side against Somerset) when he went on to reach three figures. He looked assured but played on to Charlie Morris for 58."
BBC London 94.9's Mark Church: "A good morning for Surrey. Starting the day needing a further 187 for victory, Vikram Solanki and Zafar Ansari played very well. Solanki's excellent fifty came from 97 balls before Charlie Morris broke the century partnership between him and Ansari. Surrey need 95 runs to win while Worcestershire require eight wickets to guarantee promotion."
BBC London 94.9's Kevin Hand: "Last year's champions Durham are on the verge of the victory that will ensure their Division One status.
"They picked up Dawid Malan with the last ball before lunch to leave the hosts 139-7, having been set 396 to win.
"Six wickets have fallen this morning and Middlesex will now be looking nervously over their shoulders with two games to play, the last being at second-bottom Lancashire."
New Road: Worcestershire 272 & 350 v Surrey 406 & 122-2
