Down to just nine overs remaining at Lord's.

Middlesex still plugging away, but still unable to get past both Leus du Plooy (22 not out) and Anuj Dal (19 not out).

Having nailed on big blow in the over, Josh Cobb got greedy when the situation was perfectly in hand.

Now down to Tom Taylor - fine ball striker - with Lewis McManus to try and bring this home.

Ajeet Dale again at the Wilson End, bowling a hard length, just one off four.

Then some width but Taylor crashes only to extra-cover.

Single to end the over, 35 from 30.

Five overs remaining at Grace Road.

Dillon Pennington tries to york Hassan Azad but after 267 balls at the crease, he's seeing it like several beach balls no doubt and keeps it out.

Azhar Ali comes on to bowl at the other end to try and wrap up the win.

12 overs remaining at Lord's.

Josh de Caires switches to the Nursery End to see if he can force an error.

Seven overs remaining at Grace Road.

Hands on heads and plenty of "oohs and aaahs" from Worcestershire players as they can't quite find a way past Hassan Azad and Beuran Hendricks.

Eight overs left at Wantage Road and Northants are keeping up the chase with T20 captain Josh Cobb and on-loan wicketkeeper Lewis McManus at the crease.

Cobb has never nailed Championship batting but a situation like this is right in his wheelhouse.

He slugs Zafar Gohar straight over his head for four to leave 49 needed from 48 balls.

Nine overs to bowl at Grace Road.

Worcestershire striving for the last wicket to complete the win.

Lots of men round the bat for Josh Baker as he bowls to Hassan Azad (104 not out).

And that's that at Sophia Gardens.

Glamorgan comfortably bat through the last session and a bit after a wobbly spell either side of lunch.

They were 149 in arrears at the start of their second innings but have seen it through to 220-5 thanks to Chris Cooke (85 not out) and Callum Taylor (23 not out).

Floodlights have been switched on at Lord's as we move into the last hour of play.

Durham have faced some stubborn resistance from Glamorgan this afternoon after an intial wobbly start to their second innings. The hosts had been 66-4 at one point.

But Chris Cooke has been defiant and is now on 84. He also put a crucial partnership of 92 together for the fifth wicket with Kiran Carlson, who was out for 61 after clipping an attempted cut to the keeper off Matty Potts.

Durham had 84 overs at their disposal when Glamorgan began their second innings 149 behind. It took them until the 49th over to take the lead, but time is now running out for the visitors. There are effectively 19 overs left. It's gloomy and they can't put the lights on. And Glamorgan lead by 69 runs at 218-5.

A terrific effort of concentration and perspiration no doubt from Leicestershire opener Hassan Azad.

He reaches his century off 243 balls with his 11th four having batting all through this Foxes second innings so far.

10 overs remaining for Worcestershire to try and take the final wicket.

17 overs remaining at Lord's.

Derbyshire have put away thoughts of going for it, now it's Middlesex striving to find a way through to their tail-end.

Toby Roland-Jones plugging away from the Nursery End but Leus du Plooy (18 not out) digging in.

Gloucestershire are doing their best to halt the scoring rate and for the first time, the requirement is above a run a ball.

12 overs left, 75 needed.

Ryan Higgins has been at his miserly best, going for only 33 in his 19 overs so far.

Rob Keogh, after his first-innings 113, continues to lead the chase for the hosts.

Worcestershire are being made to sweat for this win at Grace Road.

Hassan Azad (96 not out) and Beuran Hendricks (9 not out) are keeping them at bay with one wicket remaining.

A minimum of 14 overs still to bowl.

Into the final hour in the East Midlands and Northants need 91 in 16 overs.

Gloucestershire are a very handy T20 outfit and they will need some of those skills now to try and prevent the hosts getting up.

Tom Helm's spell of three wickets in quick succession has certainly taken a Derbyshire win off the table in this one.

Leus du Plooy and Anuj Dal playing a much more watchful role with the bat than what came before.

138 more to win off 22 overs but just five wickets remaining.

Can Middlesex force a late win?

With the last hour in sight, Warwickshire and Surrey shake on the draw.

Surrey will be annoyed they couldn't drill home their strong position, having had their opponents 41-4 replying to 428.

But centuries from Matt Lamb - his second first-class hundred - and Michael Burgess - a career-best 178 - ensured the Bears got out of danger.

The Edgbaston groundsman, Gary Barwell, responded unkindly to accusations that county pitches that nibble around for medium pacers do the England Test side no favours after the West Indies series.

He's proved here, perhaps a little too emphatically, that he's certainly not part of the problem.
