  1. wicket

    Lammonby c Salter b Douthwaite 34published at 19:48 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Somerset 166-5 v Glamorgan (19 overs)

    Cracking contribution from Tom Lammonby but it ends, caught by Andrew Salter.

    Excellent 65 stand with Devon Conway.

  2. 50 runs

    for Alex Daviespublished at 19:47 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Lancashire 186-3 v Durham (18.2 overs)

    Alex Davies sneaks a couple to reach his fifty off 36 balls.

    Great knock. Lancashire are still targeting 200+.

  3. Postpublished at 19:46 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Birmingham Bears 150-5 v Worcestershire (19 overs)

    Another six for Carlos Brathwaite.

    Fantastic partnership between he and Sam Hain who is on 82no now. Brathwaite on 38.

  4. wicket

    Wright c Vince b Currie 54published at 19:45 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Hampshire v Sussex 106-2 (12.1 overs)

    Can't keep James Vince out the game, the Hampshire batsman safely holds on to a Luke Wright shot off the bowling of Scott Currie.

    Half-centurion Wright departs. Delray Rawlins joins Ravi Bopara (45 not out) in the middle.

  5. 50 runs

    50 for Devon Conwaypublished at 19:43 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Somerset 153-4 v Glamorgan (18.1 overs)

    A fabulous contribution from the Kiwi as he moves on to 53no.

    Oh, and now he's going to open up a bit, launches Dan Douthwaite for six. On 59 now.

    Going to be a decent total for Somerset, this.

  6. Kent make 157published at 19:42 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Middlesex v Kent 157-8 (20 overs)

    Innings break at Lord's.

    Kent fall away slightly in the second half of their innings against Middlesex to finish on 157-8.

    Heino Kuhn (42) and Harry Finch (47) the mainstays of that performance for the visitors, but their much-changed line-up was reined in towards the back end.

    Blake Cullen the pick of the Middlesex bowlers with 4-33. They will need 158 to win.

  7. 6 runs

    for Carlos Brathwaitepublished at 19:41 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Birmingham Bears 129-5 v Worcestershire (18 overs)

    Here we go.

    Carlos Brathwaite has his eye in, now. Massive six over long on.

    Two overs left, what can the Bears get to? 150-160?

  8. 50 runs

    for Luke Wrightpublished at 19:40 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Hampshire v Sussex 101-1 (12 overs)

    Luke Wright brings up his 50 with a four.

    A brilliant knock, he's now on 53 from 38 deliveries. It also brings up the three figures for the visitors.

  9. wicket

    Vilas c Borthwick b Potts 16published at 19:39 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Lancashire 166-3 v Durham (16.5 overs)

    That's two wickets and a catch now for Scott Borthwick who takes a comfortable one at long-on.

    Dane Vilas goes for 16. Lancashire still eyeing up a big score though.

  10. 6 runs

    for Tom Lammonbypublished at 19:38 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Somerset 136-4 v Glamorgan (16.3 overs)

    Tom Lammonby providing some big-hitting support here for Devon Conway (47no).

    Two fours off the first two balls of the 17th over from Timm van der Gugten, then smashes the third for a six that just clears a diving fielder on the ropes.

    He's hit 26 off 13 balls, Lammonby.

  11. Postpublished at 19:33 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Lancashire 148-2 v Durham (15 overs)

    Five overs to go and Lancashire are 148-2.

    Alex Davies has 21 from 22 and Dane Vila is on eight from nine.

    What will these two target as a final score? 10 an over and they could hit 200.

  12. Postpublished at 19:31 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Sussex 68-1 v Hampshire (8 overs)

    Big knock this so far from Luke Wright. Eight overs gone and he's already on 41 from 28.

    At the other end, Ravi Bopara is ticking along on 20 from 18. Hampshire are still toiling away.

  13. 6 runs

    for Sam Hain - and a 50published at 19:29 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Birmingham Bears 100-5 v Worcestershire (15 overs)

    Sam Hain.Image source, Rex Features

    Right on cue, Sam Hain smashes a big six off spinner Ish Sodhi, follows it up with a two and then a single.

    That's his half-century off 38 balls.

    He needs to stay in for the Bears to have a chance, you feel.

  14. Duckett falls short of 50published at 19:28 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Leicestershire v Notts Outlaws 137-4 (14 overs)

    ParkyImage source, Rex Features

    Ben Duckett misses out on a half-century for Notts as he falls leg before to Callum Parkinson for 45 off just 27 balls.

    Tried to sweep the slow left-armer and got his line a bit wrong.

    Notts still well set for a big total though with six overs to go.

  15. Postpublished at 19:25 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Birmingham Bears 84-5 v Worcestershire (13 overs)

    We all know Carlos Brathwaite can hit them but he's being frustrated by Worcestershire.

    Just 13 off 19 deliveries and Birmingham Bears need to up this run rate to post a total anywhere near competitive.

  16. 6 runs

    for Lewis Goldsworthy - then gonepublished at 19:19 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Somerset 95-4 v Glamorgan (12.3 overs)

    No respect for the spin of Marnus Labuschagne from Lewis Goldsworthy.

    Slam, he picks what seems the furthest rope to aim for, at deep mid-wicket, and clears it comfortably.

    It's a blink-and-you-miss-it nine from Goldsworthy though as he departs soon after, caught by Ruaidhri Smith, going for another big one.

    That's 3-14 for Roman Walker.

  17. Postpublished at 19:19 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Hampshire v Sussex 41-1 (5 overs)

    A strong recovery from Sussex after the early loss of Phil Salt in the first over.

    Luke Wright has had plenty of joy on the off-side. He's on 25 from 18.

  18. wicket

    Hildreth c Cooke b Walker 10published at 19:17 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Somerset 84-3 v Glamorgan (10.1 overs)

    Just over halfway through Somerset's innings in south Wales - and James Hildreth becomes Roman Walker's second victim.

    Bit of a swipe there from the Somerset legend - Glamorgan working themselves back into this one after a speedy start from the visitors.

    The dangerous Devon Conway still at the crease, though, unbeaten on 31.

  19. wicket

    Jennings c van Meekeren b Borthwick 43published at 19:16 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Lancashire 121-2 v Durham (10.4 overs)

    Wickets are like buses.

    Keaton Jennings can't quite clear six foot three Paul van Meekeren who claims a looper at backward short leg.

    Another key scalp for Durham who now have two new men at the crease.

  20. Kent reined-inpublished at 19:15 British Summer Time 16 July 2021

    Middlesex v Kent 128-4 (14 overs)

    Middlesex just tightening up Kent's scoring rate a touch with six overs to go.

    Heino Kuhn (42) and Calum MacLeod (7) fall in successive overs just to stem the runs a touch.

    Harry Finch (40 not out) now joined by former Middlesex player and another recent Kent addition, Dan Lincoln.

    Lincoln is also a semi-professional goalkeeper in non-league football.
