    Good news Notts fans, they're back out at Trent Bridge after a brief rain delay.

    Bad news Notts fans... there's plenty more of the wet stuff on the way.

  3. Back off again at The Oval

    Surrey 190 & 259-2 dec v Middlesex 160 & 21-1

    They came back out briefly, but now they are off again. Sam Robson is 18 not out, Nick Gubbins has one and this weather is starting to shift from being "good for the garden" to just plain irritating.

    Rain stops play

    Notts 400-5 dec v Worcs 80 & 49-1 (f/o)

    Is this the end of Nottinghamshire's chances of victory?

    Rain arrives at Trent Bridge and the players are forced off.

    With more bad weather on the way and nine Worcestershire wickets still to get, it's looking a tall order now.

  5. NORTHANTS v LANCS ABANDONED AS A DRAW
    Breaking

    Northamptonshire v Lancashire 88-1

    They tried - but just 6.2 overs are possible on the final day at Wantage Road - and just 34.3 over the entire four days.

    Alex Davies is left 51 not out for Lancashire, with Luke Wells on seven.

    It's eight points each and that is enough to lift Lancashire to the top of the Group Three table, three points clear of Roses rivals Yorkshire, who they meet in the next round of matches. Northants stay fourth.

  6. Surrey 190 & 259-2 dec v Middlesex 160 & 18-1

    Thankfully it was only a short delay at The Oval. The covers have been taken off and we are set to continue.

  7. Durham must avoid follow-on

    Derbyshire 258 v Durham 69-5

    Martin Emmerson
    BBC Radio Newcastle

    It's another horrible day in Derby. Very windy and cold and with the odd passing shower delaying play as well.

    Only 14 overs were possible this morning, with Durham reaching 51-4 at lunch, but still in their first innings. More than half the game has been lost to the weather.

    Ben Aitchison took the first four wickets to give himself career-best figures, and after lunch Jack Burnham fell cheaply for six, trying to drive a ball from Sam Conners which was taken by the keeper. It was a poor shot.

    It's obviously hard - with so many disruptions - for the game to fall into any pattern, but Durham need to make sure they are not bowled out cheaply and forced to follow-on.

    Cameron Bancroft has 26 not out and has given the impression he's playing in a different game compared to those who have already been dismissed.

  8. Notts 400-5 dec v Worcs 80 & 40-1 (f/o)

    Worcestershire are making a much better fist of things in their second innings.

    Ex-Notts batsman Jake Libby is leading from the front as he has done so often this season.

    The opener has scored 565 runs at an average of more than 70 in 11 innings.

    He has 25 at Trent Bridge.

  9. rain stops play

    Rain delay at The Oval

    Surrey 190 & 259-2 dec v Middlesex 160 & 18-1

    New batsman Nick Gubbins doesn't even make it to the middle before the umpires send the players off as rain arrives at the Kia Oval.

    Middlesex need another 272 and there were 62.5 overs left to be bowled. That overs figure will now start to come down.

  10. Derbys 258 v Durham 69-5

    Durham opener Cameron Bancroft has faced exactly 100 balls for his 26.

    The Australian has stood firm while wickets have fallen around him.

  11. wicket

    WICKET

    Davies c Pope b Roach 2 (Surrey 190 & 259-2 dec v Middlesex 160 & 18-1)

    What a catch.

    Jack Davies tries to work the ball to leg but it flies to gully off a leading edge where Ollie Pope dives to his left to take it in both hands.

    Catches, as so often has been said, can win matches. That is certainly going to boost Surrey's chances of winning this one.

  12. rain stops play

    Rain returns at Northampton

    Northamptonshire v Lancashire 88-1

    Guess what.

  13. Surrey 190 & 259-2 dec v Middlesex 160 & 14-0

    A testing over from Kemar Roach to Jack Davies, but the young Middlesex batsman survives. He remains two not out and Sam Robson has 12.The target for the visitors is 280.

  14. Notts 400-5 dec v Worcs 80 & 30-1 (f/o)

    Stuart Broad is now out of the attack for Notts with South Africa paceman Dane Paterson replacing him.

    Pears batsmen Jake Libby and Tom Fell are looking a lot more solid second time around.

  15. 50 runs

    for Alex Davies

    Northamptonshire v Lancashire 88-1

    Alex Davies drives Gareth Berg to reach a 105-ball fifty. It's his fourth of the season - and second against Northants, having scored 57 and 36 when the two sides met at Old Trafford in April.

    Rain stops play

    Essex 217 v Warwickshire 166 & 66-1

    Another rain shower has arrived at The Cloudfm County Ground forcing the players off.

    This might be a common theme at all our grounds over the next couple of hours.

  17. KENT v GLAMORGAN ABANDONED AS A DRAW
    Breaking

    Kent 307 & 60-1 dec v Glamorgan 64-3 dec & 23-1

    Canterbury rainRex Features

    What a shame. With the game intriguingly poised, rain in Canterbury means there will be no further play.

    Two enterprising declarations had left Glamorgan with a target of 304 and although Kent soon got rid of David Lloyd, they remain without a win after seven Group Three games.

    They take 12 points and Glamorgan 10.

  18. wicket

    WICKET

    Briggs c Lawrence b S Cook 37 (Essex 217 v Warwickshire 166 & 63-1)

    Now then...

    Essex paceman Sam Cook picks up a wicket straight after lunch as nightwatchman Danny Briggs drives him to Dan Lawrence at cover.

    The Bears only lead by 12. Another few quick wickets would make things interesting as Dom Sibley comes in at three.

  19. Match resumes at The Oval

    Surrey 190 & 259-2 dec v Middlesex 160 & 10-0

    Rikki Clarke takes the ball for Surrey after lunch and Sam Robson square cuts the first boundary of the Middlesex innings.

    They need another 280 to win.

  20. Notts 400-5 dec v Worcs 80 & 20-1 (f/o)

    Luke Fletcher is being given a bit of a rest after lunch.

    Seamer Lyndon James has come on in his place, but Stuart Broad continues at the other end.
