BEN DUCKETT HITS 200published at 11:34 British Summer Time 11 April 2016
Northants 331-2 v Sussex
He's done it! What a magnificent knock by 21-year-old Ben Duckett.
The Northants opener clips Ajmal Shahzad for two to bring up his maiden double-century.
Not bad for the second day of the season!

Surrey 21-1 v Nottinghamshire 446
Rory Burns' dismissal brings Kumar Sangakkara to the crease. The Sri Lankan legend will make batting look easy no doubt!

Surrey 21-1 v Nottinghamshire 446
The first wicket of day two has fallen at Trent Bridge.
Rory Burns edges Australian paceman Jackson Bird behind.
Maybe things will be a little easier for the bowlers today?

Surrey 18-0 v Nottinghamshire 446
More than 450 runs were scored at Trent Bridge on Sunday. Is another day of toil for the bowlers on the cards?
Duckett closes in on 200published at 11:16 British Summer Time 11 April 2016
Northants 310-2 v Sussex
I mentioned youngsters showing all their talent earlier which brings me to Northants opener Ben Duckett.
The 21-year-old, who resumed on 178 this morning, is now just 13 runs away from his maiden double century.
Northants look set for a huge total at Wantage Road.

Hampshire 189-8 v Warwickshire
It's looking pretty grim on the south coast this morning and the forecast is not looking too promising for the rest of the day.
Let's hope for some better news after lunch.

Weather reportpublished at 10:57 British Summer Time 11 April 2016
Well, it's to be expected this early in the season I suppose, but we've got a couple of rain delays this morning.
It's pretty gloomy and damp at the Ageas Bowl so there will be a delayed start between Hampshire and Warwickshire.
The scene at New Road, where we had no play on Sunday, is also a pretty wet one, so Worcestershire and Kent will not get away on time.
The other four games look set to start at 11:00 BST.
County Championship Day Twopublished at 10:55 British Summer Time 11 April 2016
