  1. dropped catch

    Dropped catchpublished at 21:09 British Summer Time 19 July 2019

    Essex 182-3 (12.3 overs) v Surrey

    Chance of a catch for Surrey at long on.... and it goes down!

    It went high but Dan Lawrence is now 42 not out off 14 balls.

    Rikki Clarke had started the over with a no ball which went for six.

    Surrey are having a torrid time in the field.

    Northants 128-8 (18 overs) v Durham (target 149)

    Hang on a minute, another boundary from Graeme White and that's 11 runs from the over. Play the last two like that and Northants might just take an unlikely victory at the death.

    Northants require 20 runs from 12 balls.

    Essex 166-3 (11.4 overs) v Surrey

    From just 38 balls, Cameron Delport gets to his century.

    He brings it up in style, with a six. That's his 11th of the innings and he moves on to 103 not out.

    It's been an incredible display of power hitting from the Essex opener, and he now has the fifth-fastest century in English domestic T20 cricket.

    up for Essexpublished at 21:03 British Summer Time 19 July 2019

    Essex 156-3 (11 overs) v Surrey.

    Bad news for Cameron Delport.

    He's missed the chance for the quickest hundred in English T20 competition.

    Andrew Symonds plundered a century in 34 balls in 2004. Delport has 93 from 34.

    But Dan Lawrence is in on the act now, with back-to-back sixes off Imran Tahir.

    Another ball is lost. Next one? Smashed over deep midwicket for ANOTHER six.

    Lawrence has 33 from 11 balls. Tahir has gone for 39 from his two overs.

  7. Postpublished at 20:58 British Summer Time 19 July 2019

    Essex 132-3 (10 overs) v Surrey

    Two more big hits from Cameron Delport off Gareth Batty.

    He smacks one into some flats and we need a new ball.

    Batty responds... with a wide.

    Next ball goes for another huge six straight down the ground, then he grabs a single.

    Delport is now onto 92 from 33 balls. Incredible hitting from him.

    A six off Gareth Batty, then he gives Imran Tahir the same treatment.

    A single puts Dan Lawrence on strike, and he gets another maximum off the South Africa spinner.

    Essex aren't bothered it's just 15 overs a side. Delport is now 73 not out from 29 balls.

    D'Arcy Short is a very good shout for man of the match on his Durham debut this evening. 47 with the bat, a catch in the field and now bowling figures of 2-19.

    The clouds have gone as well now. We're going to get our full amount of overs here.

    Essex 88-3 (7.4 overs) v Surrey

    Great delivery from Gareth Batty.

    He sees Ryan ten Doeschate coming down the wicket and responds by dropping the ball a bit shorter.

    The batsman still tries to take on the bowler and sends the ball straight down the throat of Will Jacks on the deep mid-wicket boundary.

    Dan Lawrence is the new man in.

    Essex 69-2 (5.4 overs) v Surrey

    He didn't really need to do that.

    Tom Westley looks to attack Gareth Batty and he is caught at long on by Aaron Finch.

    Cameron Delport is well set but Essex are now two wickets down at Chelmsford.

    The spin of Gareth Batty comes into the attack.
