Notts 263 v Somerset 36-3
Luke Fletcher into the attack - and he strikes straight away!
It's down the leg side and James Hildreth nudges it through to the keeper. Not a classic dismissal but a very welcome one for Notts even so.
Somerset are in deep trouble.
Tough to keep up here. Tom Abell and George Bartlett are batting now.
Root J into the 90spublished at 17:35 BST 11 April 2019

Glamorgan 355-4 v Northamptonshire
Alex Winter
BBC Radio Northampton sportGlamorgan fared even worse than Northamptonshire in the County Championship last summer, but like Northants on the opening day last week, they have enjoyed a dream first day to their 2019 season.
Billy Root, brother of England Test captain Joe, made the switch from Nottingham to Cardiff over the winter and he's opened his account for his new county in perfect fashion with a punchy innings - just his second County Championship century and first since 2017.
With Joe going well at the Ageas Bowl, when was the last time brothers made centuries on the same day in the County Championship?

Notts 263 v Somerset 36-2
Got him!
Stuart Broad bowls a superb line on off stump. Marcus Trescothick drives on the up and edges to the keeper.

BBC Radio Gloucestershire
Image source, gettA sophorific period of play in the afternoon at Bristol as the Gloucestershire bowlers take the new ball.
Matt Critchley and Harvey Hosein are finding batting difficult in the sun. They’ve put on 33 for the sixth wicket but it’s taken a long time on a typical placid Bristol pitch.
Trescothick and Hildreth lay foundationspublished at 17:28 BST 11 April 2019
Notts 263 v Somerset 34-1
The runs aren't exactly flowing, but this is a tricky session of play for both teams and Somerset will be more than happy to bat out the session at a rate of two or three an over.
Jake Ball won't get away with a long hop though and James Hildreth swats the ball through mid wicket for four.
14 overs left tonight.
Steady and stable wins the daypublished at 17:27 BST 11 April 2019
Durham 170-5 v Sussex
Martin Emmerson
BBC Newcastle
Image source, Getty ImagesI can't remember many days as quiet as this one when it comes to runs scored but Durham have eventually made their way to 150.
Liam Trevaskis and Ned Eckersley (pictured above) have put the first 50 partnership of the day on the board and have tried to give Durham some momentum.
The hosts added 56 runs in the morning for the loss of two wickets, while the period up to tea saw them score 57-3. Ollie Robinson has been the pick of the bowlers with 3-33 from 18 overs.
The ground staff say the lack of heat is affecting the wicket. There was a frost across the ground first thing today and although we have had bright sunshine all day it has been chilly too.
The new ball is now due in one over.

WICKET Simpson b Maxwell 2published at 17:10 BST 11 April 2019
Middx 206-6 v Lancs
Six down at Lord's.
Not much turn in evidence from Glenn Maxwell, but well flighted, dipping late and John Simpson can't keep it out.
Not for the first time this summer, Middlesex need big runs from the tail to stay in the game.
