The 20-year-old has turned the game in a matter of minutes.
Gloucestershire are heading for defeat against Northants at Northampton. They've recovered slightly from 72-5 to 103-5 following on after two wickets in two balls by Brett Hutton. They trail by 117.
No such alarm bells so far in this session for Derbyshire at Swansea, who are 164-2 and trail Glamorgan by 119.

Essex 206-9 v Notts 380
Essex creep past 200 to bring up their first batting bonus point.

Two wickets in two balls for Brett Hutton!

Surrey 459 v Somerset 151-4

Sussex 552 v Durham 158-3
Martin Emmerson
BBC Newcastle
Will Smith has been providing some stubborn resistance with the bat from a Durham point of view. He has 68 and has put on 56 with Paul Collingwood for the fourth wicket so far, in a steady 18 overs.
Earlier Sussex made 552, their highest score in Arundel, but on a track made for runs Durham were 100-3 at tea with Tom Latham gone for two and Cameron Steel (20) and Graham Clark (27) also out.
This wicket requires concentration and determination but there are certainly runs to be had in the sunshine of Arundel Castle.
Sussex Coach Jason Gillespsie is on air with us now and says the first task is to bowl Durham out and have them follow-on. The target to avoid the follow-on is 403.
Worcestershire 247 & 296-1 v Lancashire 130
Image source, Rex FeaturesLancashire paceman Joe Mennie will take no further part in the game against Worcestershire after he was struck on the head by a Martin Guptill drive earlier.
Danny Lamb will replace the Australian as a 'concussion replacement' - the first since new rules were introduced at the start of this season.
Lamb will be able to play a full part in the game being ‘like for like’
Assistant coach Mark Chilton spoke to BBC Radio Lancashire's Scott Read:
“It’s a head injury and he’s being monitored. He was conscious at all times but understandably dazed by it. He was feeling better by tea and he hasn’t gone to hospital yet. We’ll keep a close eye on it. If it’s proved he suffered concussion then there is a protocol we’ll have to follow.”
Wagner c Fletcher b Carter 37 (Essex 185-9 v Notts 380)
Neil Wagner's blitz is finally ended by Matt Carter.
The New Zealander blasts his third six but then falls next ball to the spinner, skying one to backward point.
Wagner hit four fours and three sixes in his 23-ball innings. He didn't do much running, put it that way.
