It's been a long, hot summer's day - one of those days the Style Council used to sing about.

It's been a productive one too with Adam Lyth, Jonny Tattersall, Emilio Gay, Leus du Plooy, Tom Alsop and Lewis Goldsworthy all scoring centuries.

But there was also bowling success with five wickets each for Simon Harmer and Kyle Abbott, and seven for Durham evergreen Chris Rushworth.

Join us tomorrow morning for day two.

Division One

Essex 127-1 v Gloucestershire 136

Hampshire 42-3 v Warwickshire 217

Kent v Northamptonshire 303

Lancashire v Somerset 297-5

Yorkshire 364-5 v Surrey

Division Two

Durham 2-0 v Derbyshire 283

Glamorgan 318 v Nottinghamshire 19-0

Middlesex 188 v Worcestershire 100-5

Sussex 407-4 v Leicestershire

One of those see-saw days at the Ageas Bowl ends with Kyle Abbott and Ian Holland surving the final over from Nathan McAndrew.

Despite Dom Sibley's 56, Warwickshire slumped to 104-7 before McAndrew saved them from total collapse with 63 off 109 balls.

Abbott took 5-45 is his more usual role, but the loss of three wickets before the close - including James Vince - may have taken a little of the shine off for the home side.

Matt Salisbury protects England opener Alex Lees from the strike, with a no-ball by Toby Pettman the only score from his over.

Chris Rushworth took 7-44 in Derbyshire's first innings and the visitors were indebted to Leus du Plooy and Anuj Dal for a stand of 165.

Dal was caught behind for 90 - one of three vitims for debutant keeper Tom Mackintosh - but du Plooy was 122 not out when he ran out of partners.

Adam Lyth pulls the final ball of the day from Ryan Patel for four to reach the close at North Marine Road on 152 not out.

Yorkshire were 125-5 at one stage but Lyth, who has hit three sixes and 23 fours in his 265-ball knock, added 239 with Jonny Tattersall - a new record for Yorkshire's sixth wicket against Surrey.

Tattersall reached stumps on 104 and they will have a further 14 overs on the second morning to add 36 to earn the fifth batting point.

Easily the trickiest place to bat today has been Marchant Taylor's School.

Middlesex were 93-7 having chose to bat first before 21-year-old North Londoner Luke Hollman, made 62 at No. 7 and Tom Helm an unbeaten 50 from No. 9.

Worcestershire then slipped to 49-5 but the departing Ed Barnard, with 33, and Gareth Roderick, 18, have steadied the ship to the close.

But there's much work for the visitors to do to get on terms in the morning.

A decent day's play on the banks of the River Taff.

Glamorgan were sent in and were really struggling at 193-6 as Brett Hutton took out three, four and five.

But credit to the hosts' lower order to haul them to three points.

Michael Neser made 42, Andrew Salter 35 and James Harris - batting at 10! Remember when was talked of as an England all-rounder? - 28.

No damage for Notts in nine over to the close.

Nathan McAndrew is short and wide and James Vince swishes it away square for four runs. There are six overs to go at the Ageas Bowl.

Leus Du Plooy finished on 122 not out as Derbyshire were dismissed in Chester-le-Street towards the end of day one for 283.

Earlier, his partnership of 166 with Anuj Dal was Derbyshire's best sixth-wicket stand against Durham. Dal made 90 but was one of seven batsmen to fall to Chris Rushworth.

Rushworth conceded only 44 runs in the process. His were the second best figures for a Durham bowler in a head to head. Melvyn Betts took 7-30 in 2000 in Darlington.

Durham have one over to bat tonight after debutant Stanley McAlindon took the final two wickets in two balls to finish on 2-63. He will be the third Durham player to be on a hat-trick in this match after Rushworth found himself in that position on two occasions but couldn't get over the line.

Oli Carter plays out a maiden from Callum Parkinson to end the opening day at Hove, but it's very much job done by Sussex, who have already earned maximum batting points.

The disappointment of losing Tom Haines with a broken hand was mitigated by Tom Alsop's magnificent 150 off 243 balls, which equalled his highest firs-class score.

Ali Orr made 70 at the top of the order and Carter will resume on 54 not out at the start of day two.

Yorkshire 352-5 v Surrey

For only the second time in his first-class career, Jonny Tattersall scores a century for Yorkshire - and he does it with a boundary off England fast bowler Jamie Overton.

In truth, a leg stump full toss was a bit of a gift, but he makes no mistake in putting it away to reach three figures off 211 balls.

It also earn a fourth batting point for his side and he has now added 227 with Adam Lyth, who has 141.

So there won't be a new career-best for Chris Rushworth - but he won't begrudge 18-year-old Durham debutant Stanley McAlindon this magic moment. Sam Conners the man to go.

After the exhilaration of his recent Test debut, it's been a tough day for Jamie Overton at Scarborough.

Adam Lyth throws the bat at a wide one in the fast bowler's latest over and slices it away for four - Overton now has 0-65 from 17 overs.

Lyth is 137 not out and Jonny Tattersall is on 92.

What a fine day's cricket for the first match back at Southport and Birkdale CC since 2018.

Lancashire firmly on top early on as Somerset slipped to 105-4.

But then a wonderful fightback by two young 'uns.

James Rew, 18, made 70 on his Championship debut.

And Lewis Goldsworthy, 21, went all the way to a maiden century in his 14th match as the pair added 145.

Goldsworthy walks off 103 not out and, with Lewis Gregory, on 23, helping his side to the close, the visitors have won the day.

Praaper jaab.

An unbroken stand of 120 between Alastair Cook and Tom Westley and Essex are just nine runs short of matching Gloucestershire's paltry first-innings total at Chelmsford.

Two runs off Ryan Higgins brought up Westley's 50 from 146 balls and there was no addition to it as Cook played out a maiden in Higgin's next over to end the day on 61 not out - an innings including nine fours.

Simon Harmer took 5-44 earlier in the day as the visitors lasted just 39 overs after winning the toss and opting to bat.
