Croft lbw Ackermann 63 (Lancashire 258-6 v Leicestershire)

Somerset 296 v Glamorgan
And just like that Glamorgan finally bring the fun to an end.
Jack Brooks loops one up in the air and is already walking off by the time Graham Wagg takes the catch off his own bowling.

Patel c Madsen b Cohen 63 (Nottinghamshire 253-8 v Derbyshire)
Having scored at a fair rate Samit Patel edges to slip for 63.
His knock came off just 70 balls and is ended by Derbyshire debutant Michael Cohen, who now has three wickets for his efforts.
Notts are 253-8 and are deep into the tail now, with plenty of overs still to be bowled today.
England v Ireland 212-9 (50 overs)
It's the halfway stage in the second one-day international at the Ageas Bowl.
Ireland have finished their innings on 212-9 after a bit of resistance once again from all-rounder Curtis Campher with 68 off 87 balls.
Earlier, Adil Rashid made Lourcan Tucker his 150th ODI scalp after the Irish batsman miscued a sweep shot.
You can follow all the action right here - complete with live radio commentary and in-game video highlights as England look to secure a series win.
Nottinghamshire 239-7 v Derbyshire
After a middle-order collapse from Notts, Samit Patel is rolling back the years.
The all-rounder is playing with a freedom not seen for some time, making a 59-ball half-century at Trent Bridge.
He's having fun out there and the hosts are racing towards 250.

Somerset 270-9 v Glamorgan
Jack Brooks gets his first half-century for Somerset!
The former Yorkshire seamer has swung his bat - with eight fours and a six - and is currently on 59 off just 42 balls.
It's a swashbuckling end to the Somerset innings, with Steven Davies on 74.
Essex v Kent 306-6
Image source, Rex FeaturesEngland's leading Test run-scorer may be all smiles here, but there's not been too much for his Essex team-mates to smile about since a profitable first half hour of this first day at Chelmsford.
Kent were 23-3 after winning the toss and choosing to bat, but Heino Kuhn (126 not out) has led the recovery with his first first-class century for the county.
Wicketkeeper-batman Ollie Robinson also made an impressive 78 earlier.
Essex have just picked up a second bowling point as Ryan ten Doeschate has Grant Stewart trapped leg before for 37, but Kent have already gone comfortably past 300.
Warwickshire 95-4 v Northamptonshire 142
With wickets falling left, right and centre around him, Warwickshire's Rob Yates reaches a half-century of runs.
It's the first 50 of the day at Edgbaston and the Bears look to be ahead of the game after Olly Stone's four wickets earlier helped them bowl Northamptonshire out for 142.
Yates took 74 balls for his 50, with eight boundaries.
Durham 103 v Yorkshire 5-0

BBC Newcastle at Emirates, Chester-le-Street
Image source, Getty ImagesDurham's batsmen have struggled throughout the day on a seaming pitch in Chester-le-Street and were dismissed for just 103.
Gareth Harte ended up not out on 33, but he scored three times as many as the next nearest batsman, who was Sean Dickson with 11. Only three players got into double figures with Matty Potts making 10.
There are still 22 overs to go though so plenty of chance for the Durham attack to get among the wickets as well.
Ben Coad took 4-23 for Yorkshire, while Jordan Thompson took 3-16 in his third game in first-class cricket.
Chris Rushworth
Martin Emmerson
BBC Newcastle
Image source, Getty ImagesObviously coronavirus has turned the season on its head.
But with restrictions now in place to ease the workload of bowlers this could be a great opportunity for Durham seamer Chris Rushworth.
He used lockdown to get himself into immense shape and has gone vegan too.
He says he's the fittest he's been and when you consider he's normally Durham's leading bowler anyway, this short season could be right up his street.
He has passed 50 first-class wickets in a season five times now and is on a total of 494 at the moment.
The only downside for him could be the fact he featured little in the T20 Blast last season, but maybe the coaching staff will look at things differently this year given it is only a two-month campaign?
Durham 103 v Yorkshire 0-0
Yorkshire's turn to bat now with 22 overs remaining in the day's play at Chester-le-Street.
A chance maybe for one of Durham's seam bowlers to grab some vital scalps....
Lancashire 236-5 v Leicestershire
Image source, Getty ImagesA half-century of two parts for Lancashire's Steven Croft.
First he played a supporting role for skipper Dane Vilas, who scored at a great rate towards the end of his knock of 90, before taking on the lead when debutant George Balderson came to the crease.
Croft's 50 - at the start of his 16th first-class season - came off 105 balls and the Red Rose continue to go well.
Durham 103 v Yorkshire
Image source, Getty ImagesDurham's disappointing first innings comes to an end as they are dismissed for just 103 at Chester-le-Street by Yorkshire.
Ben Coad with 4-23 and Jordan Thompson with 3-16 the pick of the White Rose's bowlers.
Warwickshire 77-3 v Northamptonshire 142
Northants may be feeling slightly better about being skittled for 142 earlier.
They have Warwickshire 77-3 at Edgbaston, with England one-day hopeful Sam Hain out for six and former England batsman Ian Bell caught for nine.
Definitely a day for the bowlers, with 13 wickets down so far.
Essex v Kent 289-5
Kent's day for sure after their early problems at Chelmsford.
Big-hitting seamer Grant Stewart's been handed a bit of a promotion up the order to number seven and he's not disappointing so far.
Three fours and six in his run-a-ball 25 to push Kent towards 300.
Heino Kuhn still unbeaten on 122.
Somerset 216-9 v Glamorgan
Half-century up for Somerset's wicketkeeper-batsman Steven Davies.
Providing some handy lower-order runs after Glamorgan's bowlers enjoyed a profitable afternoon session.
Six fours in his 76-ball knock helping to the landmark.
Jack Brooks at the other end (23 not out) helping to frustrate the visitors with a useful last-wicket partnership.
Vilas c Azad b Taylor 90 (Lancashire 227-5 v Leicestershire)
Take a bow, Dane Vilas.
He turned on the style towards the end there but is stopped short of a century.
The Lancashire skipper's knock of 90 came off just 125 balls, but he edged Hassan Azad to slip to end his innings.
