  5. WICKET

    Loten b Hogan 0 (Yorkshire 31-2 v Glamorgan 330)

    Yorkshire two down and a second wicket already for Michael Hogan.

  13. Post update

    Middlesex 313 v Somerset 1-0

    Tom Lammonby and Tom Banton get Somerset's first innings under way at Lord's.

    You feel it's a big season in red-ball cricket for Banton - he has an average of 25.17 in his 15 first-class matches with a top score of 79. That'll improve.

  14. Under way in Birmingham and Nottingham

    Group 1 update

    Hutton

    Play has restarted after some brief rain delays in the two other Group 1 matches at Edgbaston and Trent Bridge.

    England opener Dom Sibley (3 not out) is at the crease for Warwickshire as they continue their reply to Derbyshire 189 all out yesterday on 24-1

  19. WICKET

    Bamber b Gregory 9 (Middlesex 309-9 v Somerset)

    Five wickets for Lewis Gregory!
