His third ball draws Tom Moores into a play and miss outside off and the batsman is cross with himself.

Then he gets a fuller and wider delivery and drives with silky timing through mid off for four.

A bit of width from Josh Davey and the ball is flailed away through the covers by Luke Wood for four.

That's 200 for Notts in 324 balls, but still plenty of work for the hosts to do after losing five wickets this morning.

He's keeping it tight, with just a couple of runs off the bat in his two overs since his return.

Tom Bailey to bowl next. Honours even at Lord's methinks, which as ever, looks a real picture.

If you're fortunate to be at a game this afternoon and you've also got us on your mobile or tablet, send us a picture.

Mr Williams Snr has very kindly done the honours for us at The Oval where he tells me don't be fooled by the bright sunshine as the mercury is still struggling to rise.

Roll on mid-summer I say.

Luke Wood gets a wide one from Tom Abell and drives fluently through the covers for four.

Notts within touching distance of a first batting point and Lewis Gregory, to bowl the next over, needs one more for a five wicket haul.

Having taken over 70 Championship wickets last season, the question was whether Ollie Robinson could repeat that performance.

The answer so far is yes, taking six wickets last week against Leicestershire and so far another three today.

Even more impressive is his recovery from hip surgery in the winter, and with Jofra Archer likely to be missing from the Sussex attack for the next few weeks, a fit Robinson is vitally important for Sussex.

Somerset have a second bowling point and Lewis Gregory has a fourth wicket.

The seamer sends Samit Patel’s leg and off stumps out of the ground and in opposite directions as he reduces the hosts to 177-6.

Patel made 33 and shared in a stand of 58 with Tom Moores.

Half-century time again at the Ageas Bowl as Gary Ballance reaches his 50.

It's come off 102 balls with six fours to go alongside the two centuries and a double century he has struck on this ground in the past.

A rare over-pitched ball from Lewis Gregory is driven imperiously through mid-off for four by Moores.

After having nearly everything their way this morning, Somerset are being given a much sterner test this afternoon.

A slice of luck for Zak Crawley as he edges a length ball that brushes the edge of the bat, keeps low and runs away wide of the slips for four.

That takes the Kent score past the 150 mark in 258 balls.

The unlucky bowler is Ryan Sidebottom.

Samit Patel and Tom Moores are moving Notts back towards an even keel after batting throughout the first hour of the afternoon at Trent Bridge.

Patel has been driving crisply – straight and through the covers – to move on to 32.

Moores has punched a couple of emphatic square cuts to the boards, with 26* not out - in a partnership now worth 52.

Somerset captain Tom Abell brings himself on to bowl.

Tidy enough for the first fibve balls but the sixth is well wide of off stump and clattered through the coveres for four by Tom Moores.

That's the 50 partnership between him and Patel in 92 balls - and a welcome respite after losing five wickets this morning.

Joe Root (24 not out) and Gary Ballance (41 not out), who both hit unbeaten hundreds in the second innings in their last game at Nottinghamshire, look as though they are preparing for another long partnership here at the Ageas Bowl.

Both are taking few chances as they accumulate runs rather than dictate play.

Hampshire can do no more than bowl to plans and bowl as accurately as they can. This they have done.

Keith Barker has beaten the outside edge a few times. Kyle Abbott and Fidel Edwards have bowled well.

But you already feel that only mistakes by the top-order batsmen will prevent the Tykes building a sizable first innings score.

Another fine shot from Crawley - who sweeps Jeetan Patel to the square leg boundary and takes the second wicket partnership to 50 in 97 balls.

Looks like another tough session in the field for Warwickshire.

Kent’s batsmen are doing a good job of banishing any ill-memories from last year's promotion-decider defeat here at Warwickshire and the second innings batting collapse at Taunton last week.

Zak Crawley has batted fluently on what looks like a decent surface, hitting thirteen boundaries so far, as he eyes three figures.

The 21-year-old has been joined by Australian Matt Renshaw - who has a point to prove after only scoring five in two innings against his former county last week - following an opening stand of 82 with Sean Dickson (31).
