    Glamorgan 149 v Yorkshire 203-8

    A first batting point for Yorkshire as Joe Root hits another boundary.

    Yorkshire's lead is now 54 while England captain Root is not out on 87.

    Just 13 away, don't go anywhere people.

    Glamorgan 149 v Yorkshire 198-8

    Yorkshire are starting this session how they finished the last with the runs flowing. They're about to bring up 200 as Joe Root hits two fours to move into the 80s.

    Glamorgan 149 v Yorkshire 185-8

    We are playing in Cardiff again though as Joe Root (75 not out) and Steven Patterson (34 not out) walk to the middle after tea.

    Big session coming up with the lead just 36.

  18. Bad light stops playpublished at 16:09 British Summer Time 15 May 2021

    Derbyshire 146 & 18-1 v Essex 412-3 dec

    The first good thing that's happened to Derbyshire all day I reckon.

    We're off for bad light.

  19. Postpublished at 16:07 British Summer Time 15 May 2021

    Derbyshire 146 & 14-1 v Essex 412-3 dec

    Terrible start for Derbyshire, there's already been an Essex wicket as Jamie Porter bowls Luis Reece for a seven-ball duck.

    Sadly no 10-for for Simon Harmer in this innings either then. Disappointing.

  20. Tea at Chester-le-Streetpublished at 16:04 British Summer Time 15 May 2021

    Durham 246 & 271-4 v Worcestershire 213

    That's tea right as Durham's lead passes 300.

    We're now into potential declaring territory. The forecast for tomorrow doesn't look great. I wonder how many sessions Scott Borthwick will want his side to bowl at Worcestershire.
