    Worcestershire 439 v Gloucestershire 364-6 - Lunch

    BBC Radio Gloucestershire's Bob Hunt at New Road:

    "Another good morning in an extraordinary match. Craig Miles is two short of a career best, and Graeme van Buuren is still there on 172 as Gloucestershire edge towards the Worcestershire total.

    "Could there be an attacking declaration on the cards?"

    WICKET Lumb (c & b Borthwick 52)published at 12:51 British Summer Time 31 May 2016

    Notts 534 & 242-4 v Durham 447

    Scott Borthwick picks up his second wicket of the innings and seventh of the match as he catches Michael Lumb off his own bowling.

    Lumb has done his job however, with Nottinghamshire's lead up to 329. The declaration will surely come at lunch?

    Fifties for Lumb and Milespublished at 12:45 British Summer Time 31 May 2016

    Craig Miles does indeed go to his half-century with a four off Worcestershire paceman Ed Barnard. The Gloucestershire youngster's first-class best of 62 is now in sight.

    At Trent Bridge Michael Lumb brings up his fifty off 62 balls. Nottinghamshire's assault continues as Brendan Taylor launches Scott Borthwick for his fourth six.

  9. 150 runs

    Graeme van Buuren reaches 150published at 12:41 British Summer Time 31 May 2016

    Worcestershire 439 v Gloucestershire 324-6

    This is some innings by Gloucestershire's Graeme van Buuren. The South African-born batsman brings up his 150 off 284 balls.

    Craig Miles is also three away from a half-century as the morning very much swings in the visitors' favour at New Road.

    WICKET Bresnan (c Livingstone b Procter 29)published at 12:35 British Summer Time 31 May 2016

    Yorkshire 308 & 130-7 v Lancashire 196

    Just as Tim Bresnan was beginning to look dangerous with the bat, he's out - caught at first slip by Liam Livingstone off Luke Procter.

    This game is really in the balance now - Yorkshire's lead stands at 242 with three wickets left. 

    Liam Plunkett is the new batsman.

  12. 50 runs

    Fifty for Brendan Taylorpublished at 12:30 British Summer Time 31 May 2016

    Notts 534 & 208-3 v Durham 447

    Brendan Taylor reaches his half century off just 35 balls as Notts attempt to set up a declaration against Durham.

    The former Zimbabwe captain has struck five fours and three maximums. Will they give the bowlers a go before lunch?

  13. Notts on the chargepublished at 12:20 British Summer Time 31 May 2016

    Notts 534 & 194-3 v Durham 447

    A declaration could be on the cards at Trent Bridge very shortly.

    Nottinghamshire's first-innings centurion Brendan Taylor has raced to 43 off 30 balls, including three sixes, and has put on 53 in just over seven overs with Michael Lumb.

    Notts lead by 281 with just over two sessions left.

    Only Fools and Horses

    Okay, it's that time of the week you've all been waiting for! The return of Tuesday's themed XI.

    So what is in store today? Well, with all this rain around, it got me thinking - what's the best way to spend a rainy day?

    Read a book? Open an umbrella stall? Or how about an afternoon in front of the television?

    And there's your link! I want to know - what would your television show XI be?!

    I'll give you a couple of examples to start things - I came up with Breaking Badree and The Chopranos.

    But I'm sure you can do much better! Tweet us using #bbccricket with your suggestions.

    Worcestershire 439 v Glouucestershire 287-6

    Graeme van Buuren and Craig Miles are ticking along nicely for Gloucestershire at New Road.

    Van Buuren is up to 134 and Miles has moved to 28 and the pair's seventh-wicket stand is 57.

    They're just three runs away from avoiding the follow on.

  16. Yorkshire rebuildpublished at 11:58 British Summer Time 31 May 2016

    Yorkshire 308 & 109-6 v Lancashire 196

    After the frantic opening half hour at Headingley, Adil Rashid and Tim Bresnan have calmed things down.

    The pair put on 136 for the sixth wicket in the first innings. 

    Yorkshire might not need quite as many from them this time around with the lead already at 221, but they could certainly do with the all-rounders sticking around for a while.

  17. wicket

    WICKET Libby (c Borthwick b Rushworth 42)published at 11:52 British Summer Time 31 May 2016

    Notts 534 & 150-3 v Durham 447

    It might not matter too much in the context of the game, but Jake Libby misses out on a personal milestone.

    The young Notts opener is out eight short of a first County Championship fifty for Nottinghamshire of the summer as he nicks Chris Rushworth to Scott Borthwick in the slips.

    Notts now need to push for quick runs with the weather closing in. Michael Lumb is doing a decent job so far, he's 32 off 35 balls. The lead is up to 237.

    Sussex 447-8 dec v Derbyshire 150 & 195-6

    We love you Hove, we do. We love you Hove, we do. You know the rest.

    But my positivity is for good reason - it's stopped raining! No word on a restart yet, but I think we may have some cricket.

    Northants 444 & 75-5 v Essex 640

    As expected, the rain has arrived in Northampton and they're off. We could be in for quite a delay.
