As we suspected, Matt Parkinson changes ends at Canterbury but it's a wicketless over and Hamidullah Qadri takes a single to move to 14. Kent are 142 in arrears.

How does Joey Evison approach this now, with only number 11 Dane Paterson for company?

He needs to stretch the Notts lead and strokes Timm van der Gugten through cover for four to do just that, advancing to 36 not out - but they are only 163 ahead at present.

A bowling change by Lancashire as George Balderson relieves Matt Parkinson - could it be a change of ends for the spinner?

His second delivery is overpitched and wide and Ben Compton emerges from his monastic self-denial to find the cover boundary for only the second time in his innings.

He is 27 not out, but Kent still trail by 145.

Optimistic by Sam Conners, who tries to surprise Cheteshwar Pujara with a bouncer, which the India batter despatches to mid-wicket for four.

He is 64 not out and Tom Haines is on 169 - Sussex need another 41 to avoid an innings defeat. It will take a spectacular, and unexpected, collapse for them to fail to do so.

Matt Parkinson wheels in again. There's a single each for Ben Compton and Hamidullah Qadri in his latest over and the Kent deficit is now 157.

Qadri's best first-class score is 30 not out and they are going to need a lot more than that from him today.

You certainly wouldn't call Gloucestershire's approach timid on this final morning - they've taken 14 from the first two overs to stretch their lead over Yorkshire to 118.

Zafar Gohar has advanced to 31 not out, while James Bracey is yet to add to his overnight 112.

Only three singles so far at Trent Bridge, but they are enough to push Nottinghamshire's lead past 150.

Joey Evison is 27 not out and Brett Hutton has 15.

That is seven wickets in the game now for Matt Parkinson - surely a first Test cap can't be that far away.

Hasan Ali opens up from the other end and it is a maiden to 'Stonewall' Ben Compton.

Time for a 'little less talk and a lot more action', as US country-rock singer Toby Keith has been known to suggest.

As expected, Durham have declared on their overnight total following opener Michael Jones' 108 on the third day.

It means Leicestershire have a nominal target of 395 - but in reality, it is likely to be all about survival for them at the Riverside.

Hassan Azad was their hero a week ago, scoring 104 not out to secure a draw against Worcestershire.

Foxes followers will be hoping for something similar today.

Kent opener Ben Compton has the chance today to achieve the notable feat of carrying his bat through both innings of a first-class game.

Compton made an unbeaten 104 in the first innings against Lancashire and begins day four on 20 not out, having already batted for more than nine and a half hours in the match, and he admitted: "I'm just exhausted.".

Let's hope he's had a good night's sleep because Kent need him to continue his marathon to have any hope of salvaging a draw.

"We're in a bit of trouble now but we've got to try and battle deep and see how far we can get," he said.

James Bracey believes the first session is crucial if Gloucestershire are to remain in the game against Yorkshire at Bristol.

Bracey will resume on 112, but they are only 104 ahead and the visitors have a new ball which was only used for four overs on Saturday evening.

He completed his century after being hit on the helmet by a ball from Haris Rauf and told BBC Radio Gloucestershire: "I've maybe learned a lesson about trying to pull a guy bowling 90 miles an hour."

Bracey added: "It was really good to get a century at home, it's not something I've done that often. State of the game, we needed one or two to dig in and I'm happy to be that person."

Seam bowler Timm van der Gugten is hopeful Glamorgan finish the job after a day of personal success against Notts at Trent Bridge.

He made 62 to help the Welsh club to a 77-run first-innings lead and then took 4-51 with the ball, passing 200 first-class wickets in the process.

Notts are only 147 ahead and he told BBC Sport Wales: "The game's at an interesting point, we've got two more wickets to take, hopefully we can do that with minimal damage and it'll be an interesting chase.

"It's a really good cricket wicket, if you bowl well enough you'll get rewards, if you bat well enough you'll get rewards, so it's been a good game so far."

We are set fair for another full day of Championship cricket. For more localised forecasts, use the search box on the BBC Weather site.

The morning session of day three was an absolute thriller with Essex scraping home by one wicket on 84-9 against Somerset at Taunton.

Can we expect something similar today? Probably not, but most of the five remaining games are intriguingly poised.

Only two of last week's matches did not end in draws, but there is a chance we won't have any stalemates in round two.

Welcome to our coverage of the final day's play, which starts at 11:00.
