The Sussex opener snicks the seamer behind for a brilliant career-best 156.
The hosts are now almost certain to follow on at Hove as they still trail by 368.

Notts v Lancs 223-8 - target 444
We're about 25 minutes away from tea. Can Nottinghamshire wrap this game up before then?
We've seen four wickets since lunch. The new ball is doing plenty.

Sussex 296-4 v Middlesex 676-5 dec
Image source, Rex FeaturesTom Haines' stellar season continues.
The Sussex opener goes to 150 and is now just four short of his career-best 155.
938 runs at an average just under 50 for the 22-year-old this campaign. Impressive.

Notts v Lancs 210-8 - target 444
Tom Bailey and Danny Lamb are now out in the middle both yet to get off the mark for Lancashire.
This might by the final wicket you know. Not sure if Saqib Mahmood will bat after getting an injury on day one.
He came out with a runner at the end of the first innings.

Still looking very good for Northants.
New ball for Surrey, last chance saloon most probably.

Croft c Duckett b Paterson 6 (Notts v Lancs 210-7 - target 444)
This could be over pretty quickly too.
What an hour Dane Paterson is having, after his stunning catch earlier, he now has the wicket of Steven Croft who edges behind.
No runs added for that partnership. By the way, after Hampshire's win earlier, it means if Notts win today, they'll be top of Division One outright.

Image source, Rex FeaturesNotts are definitely huge favourites now!
Big Luke Fletcher bowls Rob Jones as he attempts to leave one and gets an inside edge onto the stumps.
The hosts need four wickets at Trent Bridge. The target of 444 is definitely out of the equation now for Lancashire.

It's why we love cricket ain't it folks? Hampshire were looking at defeat for three days.

BreakingHampshire (89 & 322) beat Warwickshire (116 & 235) by 60 runs
A memorable win for Hampshire as number 11 Chemar Holder edges Brad Wheal behind for a duck.
What a game of county cricket. Hampshire ended their first innings 89 all out and likely to stay bottom of Division One.
Instead, they now join Yorkshire at the top with two games to go.
Warwickshire will be kicking themselves.

Warwickshire 233-9 (target 296) v Hampshire
Hmmm, pausing and rewinding my feed of the Warwickshire - Hampshire match and I've had to update my wicket entry.
In real time Liam Norwell looked well in, now I'm not sure. This might've been an excellent call by the umpire you know.

Calamity!
Warwickshire are nine down after Liam Norwell is run out desperately trying to run a two to stay off strike.
Replays suggest it was a very close call. Hampshire are one away.
