    So, that completes the second round of the Bob Willis Trophy.

    Three rounds to go before the two sides with most points contest a five-day final.

    We're back on Saturday for the start of round three.

    Hope you can join us then.

    Breaking

    Gloucestershire (210 & 275) beat Warwickshire (247 & 160) by 78 runs

    It's Ryan Higgins with the final wicket as Oliver Hannon-Dalby edges to Gloucestershire keeper Gareth Roderick.

    Higgins finishes with figures of 7-42. What a performance to back up his 4-54 in the first innings and 51 with the bat.

    But wow, didn't Warwickshire come close!

    Just 27 balls away from stumps when that last wicket fell.

    Gloucestershire v Warks 160-9 - target 239

    Matt Taylor returns to the attack. He took the wickets of Alex Thomson and Henry Brookes to inspire this late push for victory.

    When Ryan Higgins dismissed Craig Miles more than 10 overs ago it looked like a certain Gloucestershire win.

    But Warwickshire's final pair have defended brilliantly and survive another six balls as Tim Bresnan blocks out a maiden.

    Five overs left.

    Breaking

    Worcs (455-8 & 276-6 dec) draw with Glamorgan (374 & 141-7)

    Kieran Bull safely sees out four balls of Jake Libby's final over.

    Match drawn. Those overs Worcestershire batted after lunch may well have cost them.

    Now all eyes turn to Bristol...
