    WICKETpublished at 17:25 British Summer Time 20 May 2022

    Brook c Yates b OHD 82 (Yorks 267-4 v Warwicks 244)

    The lights are on at Headingley as Harry Brook edges Oliver Hannon-Dalby and Rob Yates takes the catch moving to his left at first slip.

    He'll be disappointed not to reach a century but it's been another substantial innings of quality by Brook, which lasted 116 balls and featured 11 fours.

    His partnership with Adam Lyth added 158 - Brook has now scored 840 runs this season at an average of 140.

  3. Postpublished at 17:24 British Summer Time 20 May 2022

    Yorks 267-3 v Warwicks 244

    A chance of a run out for Warwickshire but the throw isn't accurate enough and Adam Lyth escapes as he and Harry Brook bring up a 150 partnership.

    More mayhem from Grant Stewart as he punches a low full toss away for four and then pulls for another six as Matt Kelly drops short in trying to adjust his length. He has 30 off 27 balls now.

  5. Yorkshire take the leadpublished at 17:16 British Summer Time 20 May 2022

    Yorks 252-3 v Warwicks 244

    Yorkshire are now ahead at Headingley and Harry Brook deflects a rising delivery from Oliver Hannon-Dalby between slip and gully for four to earn them a second batting point. He is now 73 not out.

  6. Division Two updatepublished at 17:13 British Summer Time 20 May 2022

    Derbyshire have removed Lyndon James for 34, but Tom Moores and Liam Patterson-White are more than useful batters as Nottinghamshire look to crack on from their 285-6 score.

    In-form Sam Robson has stroked a couple of fours already as Middlesex make a positive reply at 18-0 to Durham's 350.

  7. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 17:12 British Summer Time 20 May 2022

    Linde c Kelly b Keogh 31 (Northants v Kent 455-8)

    George Linde tries to match the big-hitting of partner Grant Stewart but gets too far underneath a lofted drive off Rob Keogh and Matt Kelly takes the catch at long-on. Matt Quinn is the new batter.

  8. Postpublished at 17:08 British Summer Time 20 May 2022

    Yorks 242-3 v Warwicks 244

    A leg-stump half-volley by Oliver Hannon-Dalby and Harry Brook doesn't miss out on that - it's four runs through mid-wicket as he moves to 69 not out. Adam Lyth is now on 105 at the other end.

  9. 100 runs

    for Adam Lythpublished at 16:58 British Summer Time 20 May 2022

    Yorks 234-3 v Warwicks 244

    Well batted, Adam Lyth.

    The Yorkshire opener punches the air as back to back boundaries off Henry Brookes - a cover drive and a square cut - carry him to a 267-ball hundred.

    It's the 28th century of the former England opener's career - but first this season, so it's no wonder he is well chuffed.

  10. 6 runs

    Postpublished at 16:58 British Summer Time 20 May 2022

    Northants v Kent 441-7

    There he goes again - Ben Sanderson drops short and Grant Stewart pulls away for his second six in successive overs. When he hits them, as the expression goes, they stay hit.

  11. 6 runs

    Northants v Kent 432-7

    Up, up and away - Grant Stewart hammers Rob Keogh over long-on for a maximum at Wantage Road. His only other scoring stroke so far was an emphatic pull for four off Tom Taylor.

  12. Postpublished at 16:45 British Summer Time 20 May 2022

    Yorks 216-3 v Warwicks 244

    Henry Brookes and Oliver Hannon-Dalby are back as Warwickshire take the new ball. There are plenty of overs left in the day - bad light and rain permitting - and Warwickshire need to knock over three or four in that time.

    Harry Brook has 63 and Adam Lyth is on 87.

  13. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 16:39 British Summer Time 20 May 2022

    Rushworth c Simpson b Roland-Jones 5 (Middlesex v Durham 350 all out)

    Chris Rushworth is out caught behind and the Durham innings is over.

    Liam Trevaskis is undefeated on 80 at the other end, the highest score of the innings.

  14. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 16:38 British Summer Time 20 May 2022

    Leaning c and b Taylor 62 (Northants v Kent 417-7)

    Kent's captain departs at Northampton. Tom Taylor finds a leading edge and that is a fairly comfortable return catch for the bowler.

    Jack Leaning hit eight fours in his 131-ball innings and Grant Stewart is the new batter.

    Yorks 215-3 v Warwicks 244

    Oh dear. A long hop outside leg stump by Rob Yates and Harry Brook gleefully thumps it away behind square for four. He is now 60 not out, with Adam Lyth on 87 and their stand is now worth 106.

  16. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 16:36 British Summer Time 20 May 2022

    Haynes lbw b Mulder 127 (Worcestershire 334-3 v Leicestershire 148)

    Jack HaynesImage source, Rex Features

    The Jack Haynes-Azhar Ali partnership ends at 281 - a record for any Worcestershire wicket against Leicestershire.

    Haynes is the man to go - his innings containing 17 fours and a six in his 230-ball stay.

    The lead is 186 and Azhar still going strong on 140.

  17. Notts leadpublished at 16:34 British Summer Time 20 May 2022

    Nottinghamshire 262-5 v Derbyshire 260

    Lyndon James nudges a couple off Sam Conners and Nottinghamshire now have a first innings lead.

    With five wickets in hand, they will hope to push towards an advantage of three figures or more.

  18. Postpublished at 16:34 British Summer Time 20 May 2022

    Yorks 207-3 v Warwicks 244

    Warwickshire now have spin at both ends, presumably to hasten the onset of the second new ball. The latest over is a maiden from Danny Briggs to Adam Lyth.

  19. Postpublished at 16:29 British Summer Time 20 May 2022

    Northants v Kent 403-6

    The final session has begun at Wantage Road and four singles off Rob Keogh push the Kent total past 400. Jack Leaning is 54 not out and George Linde has six.

  20. Batting point for Tykespublished at 16:27 British Summer Time 20 May 2022

    Yorks 204-3 v Warwicks 244

    Adam Lyth square cuts Will Rhodes for four and Yorkshire have their first batting point. He is 83 not out and Harry Brook has 53.

    There are only five overs to the new ball and the champions need to make some inroads with that.
