    Couple of quick wickets for Worcestershire and Ed Barnard now as Charlie Hemphrey is pinned lbw. That's both Glamorgan openers gone.

    50 for Mullaneypublished at 14:50 British Summer Time 9 August 2020

    Nottinghamshire 162-4 v Yorks 264

    A first half-century of the summer for skipper Steve Mullaney.

    That's eight fours and one huge maximum in 79 balls for Notts' number five so far.

    The hosts are 162-4. Just over 100 runs behind.

  4. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 14:47 British Summer Time 9 August 2020

    Madsen b Davis 103 (Leicestershire 199 v Derbys 253-4)

    It's the one they wanted.

    Wayne Madsen falls for a superb 103, bowled by the Foxes' Will Davis.

    A fantastic innings.

  5. Postpublished at 14:44 British Summer Time 9 August 2020

    Nottinghamshire 156-4 v Yorkshire 264

    Nottinghamshire's 150 comes up as Steven Mullaney punches Adam Lyth to the cover boundary.

    The Notts skipper is now on 45, with Peter Trego at the other end on 21.

    Just 108 runs away from Yorkshire's first innings total now.

  6. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 14:39 British Summer Time 9 August 2020

    Curran c J Overton b Davey 10 (Northants 21-1, target 322)

    Well, it took a bit longer than in the first innings...

    Northants opener Ben Curran is on his way as he edges Josh Davey to Jamie Overton in the slip cordon.

    Ricardo Vasconcelos is in at three.

  7. 100 runs

    100 for Madsenpublished at 14:39 British Summer Time 9 August 2020

    Leicestershire 199 v Derbyshire 249-3

    Wayne Madsen does get his century with a cracking boundary!

    A brilliant 100 from 172 balls with 17 fours.

    He's helped his Derbyshire side take total control in this one, and they now lead by 50 and are only three wickets down.

  8. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 14:37 British Summer Time 9 August 2020

    Selman c Cox b Barnard 22 (Worcs 455-8 v Glamorgan 39-1)

    Wickets aren't quite so hard to come by then...

    Nick Selman snicks Ed Barnard behind to give Worcestershire the breakthrough.

  9. Postpublished at 14:36 British Summer Time 9 August 2020

    Leicestershire 199 v Derbys 242-3

    Derbyshire's Wayne Madsen is on 98. Can he get over the line?

  10. Postpublished at 14:36 British Summer Time 9 August 2020

    Worcestershire 455-8 v Glamorgan 39-0

    Who'd be a bowler at New Road this weekend?

    Wickets are very hard to come by it seems as Nick Selman and Charlie Hemphrey get Glamorgan off to an untroubled start.

  11. 50 runs

    for Will Jackspublished at 14:30 British Summer Time 9 August 2020

    Essex 262 v Surrey 81-4

    It's a one man show for Surrey at the moment.

    With others falling around him, Will Jacks has stood firm and brings up his fifty - a knock that has included 10 boundaries.

  12. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 14:24 British Summer Time 9 August 2020

    Livingstone c Bedingham b Raine 23 (Durham 180 v Lancs 136-3)

    Oops.

    Yesterday I said Yorkshire's Harry Brook looked unstoppable right before his wicket, now it's the turn of the 'intentful' Liam Livingstone.

    The Lancashire man goes on the attack outside off and David Bedingham takes a good catch off the bowling of Ben Raine.

    At least I'm sharing my commentators curse across the north group.

    Apologies again, Joe.

  13. 50 runs

    for Joe Weatherleypublished at 14:24

    Middlesex 252 v Hants 128-3

    Hampshire are batting themselves into a very decent position at Radlett.

    Opener Joe Weatherley is leading the way as he brings up his half-century.

    Sam Northeast is also looking in good touch on 34.

    Hampshire trail by 124.

  14. Postpublished at 14:23 British Summer Time 9 August 2020

    Durham 180 v Lancs 136-3

    Plenty of intent from Liam Livingstone (23*) and Josh Bohannon (35*) since the restart.

    They've added 34 runs with the score now 136-3.

    The visitors trail Durham's first innings lead by just 44. Good partnership this.

  15. Postpublished at 14:21 British Summer Time 9 August 2020

    Northants 0-0 (target 322) v Somerset

    Ben Curran and Emilio Gay get this mammoth chase for Northants under way.

    Surely it can't be as bad as their first innings when they were skittled for 67?

    Nottinghamshire 135-4 v Yorks 264

    Speaking of golden 39-year-olds, Peter Trego's just smashed Yorkshire's Jack Shutt for six.

    The oldest cricketers on the first-class circuit

    Martyn Rees: How about Michael Hogan of Glamorgan? He was 39 in May.

    Robbie Sewell: Not quite over 40 but Michael Hogan?

    Hogan's 39 years and 70 days comfortably puts him in our top ten.

  19. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 14:11 British Summer Time 9 August 2020

    J Overton c Rossington b Sanderson 68 (Northants 67 v Somerset 166 & 222)

    Northants will need an unlikely 322 to beat Somerset.

    Jamie Overton's swashbuckling innings comes to an end as he tickles Ben Sanderson behind.

    68 off 43 balls was brutal.

  20. Postpublished at 14:10 British Summer Time 9 August 2020

    Gloucestershire 210 v Warks 65-3

    Warwickhire are starting to rebuild after losing Ian Bell just before lunch.

    New man in Matthew Lamb has just got off the mark, while Will Rhodes is going steady on 34 from 73 deliveries.

    They're still 145 runs behind Gloucestershire's total, but there's no need to panic just yet.
