Surrey 434 v Worcestershire 396-5 (123 overs)

We asked whether Keaton Jennings or Nick Gubbins should open for England against Pakistan following centuries today. Here are a couple of opinions.
From Jake Bostock: "Jennings, Gubbins, Clarke all centurions. Possible call ups on the cards? Lord knows we need some competition for places in our batting line up"
From Jordan Hart: "Jennings would be perfect for England. He may have had a chance but he is improving now at Lancs (wish we could have Vilas #bbccricket"
Nottinghamshire 302 & 389-9d v Hampshire 223 & 55-0 (24.1 overs)
Sharp chance goes down. Jake Libby at short leg gets an inside edge from Jimmy Adams coming towards him, but can't hold it.
Yorkshire beat Essex by 91 runs
During the course of Yorkshire's win at Chelmsford, seam bowler Steve Patterson claimed his 350th first-class wicket and it certainly wasn't a bad one - former England skipper Alastair Cook.
Patterson took four wickets, including Cook, at the start of Essex's run-chase - and then added two more today as the Tykes clinched the victory.
"Yes, it was a nice one but, more importantly, it just started us off and got us rolling and we went from there," he said.
“Personal milestones are nice, but it’s days like this that you take away and remember for the rest of your career. To be rolled out for 50 and then come back and win the game by the best part of 100 runs is pretty special.
“For me, it’s just nice to be back playing. I’ve had a frustrating couple of weeks sitting on the sidelines. It’s great to be back on the field."
Somerset 429 v Lancashire 492 (144 overs)
Finally, Somerset bowl out Lancashire.
But it takes a stunner of a catch at gully from Craig Overton to do it, as Matt Parkinson departs for 9. Dane Vilas finishes unbeaten on 235 from 363 balls. What an effort.
A first-innings lead of 63 runs for the hosts.

Surrey 434 v Worcestershire 376-5 (118 overs)
Image source, Getty ImagesAn excellent innings by Joe Clarke, who reaches his 10th first-class century off 213 balls with two runs from the bowling of spinner Amar Virdi.
I wonder his is one of the 'must take a look' names in the notes area on on national selector Ed Smith's mobile.
However, unless there is an unexpected turn of events in the next three and a bit sessions, it looks like the Oval pitch is going to beat both sides.
Glamorgan 94 & 274 v Kent 174 & 196-4 (48 overs)

How fitting that Darren Stevens hit the final run at Sophia Gardens, having effectively won this game for Kent on the opening day.
His six wickets in an extraordinary spell that took Glamorgan from 57-0 to 94 all out meant that it was always going to be extremely tough for the hosts to win this game.
Heino Kuhn's 69 not out was the main contribution in this chase, with solid knocks from Daniel Bell-Drummond and Sean Dickson setting a good platform.
Kent take 19 points from the match, and have achieved something of a turnaround after an opening weekend defeat to Gloucestershire. Their batting needs to improve, their bowling however is superb.

We've seen centuries today from Keaton Jennings and Nick Gubbins. Would either of them be a better option than Mark Stoneman as Alastair Cook's opening partner in the upcoming Tests against Pakistan? Let us know your views.

Middlesex 230 & 303-6 (91.5 overs) v Sussex 323
David Wiese forces John Simpson to chop on with Middlesex's lead on 210 runs. Sussex need to wrap up the final four as quick as possible to leave a reasonable target.
Glamorgan 94 & 274 v Kent 174 & 195-4 (48.5 overs)
Was Darren Stevens tempted to try and end the match in the grand manner? Only he knows, but a single off Andrew Salter does all that is necessary as Kent complete their second Championship win of the summer.
Heino Kuhn, signed to bolster the batting following Sam Northeast's departure to Hampshire, finishes with an unbeaten 69, including 12 fours.
The visitors take 19 points and Glamorgan, who have to settle for three, must reflect on first-innings batting collapse after they were 57-0, with all 10 wickets going down in the space of 15 overs.

Will Zak Crawley have the pleasure of hitting the winning runs for Kent? No he won't as he falls lbw to Glamorgan paceman Marchant de Lange playing across the line. Darren Stevens takes his place at the crease.
Leicestershire 440 v Durham 184 & 156-1 (52.3 overs)
Image source, BBC SportJust when it seemed that Aiden Markram was going to add to his collection of Durham noughts, but this time with a 1 in front, he falls leg-before to Callum Parkinson's left-arm spin. He doesn't seem too thrilled with the decision.
They still need another 104 to make Leicestershire bat again as Will Smith comes out to join Cameron Steel, who is on 46. Steel soon makes it to 50 with four runs off Varun Aaron, edged past the solitary slip.
