Division One leaders Hampshire and third-placed Lancashire not in action
Second-placed Surrey at Northants and will reclaim first place if they avoid defeat
Warwickshire host Somerset in key game at bottom of Division One table
Second-placed Glamorgan visit fourth-placed Middlesex in Division Two, with both sides in promotion picture
Glamorgan 165-8 v Middlesex
Just five balls later, Chris Cooke follows at Lord's.
His attempt to speed up the scoring rate comes to a sticky end as he has a go at a wide ball outside off and somehow succeeds only in steering the ball back into his stumps.
Yorkshire 123-9 v Essex
Ben Coad's stay at the crease is brief.
Ben Allison sends down a well-directed short ball, which Coad tries to fend off but manages to only divert it down on to his stumps.
Coad goes for 17 off 12 balls.
Glamorgan 165-7 v Middlesex
Middlesex old boy James Harris is next to go at Lord's after a 36-run stand with Chris Cooke.
Seven Glamorgan wickets down now. Is it time for Cooke to start playing a few shots?
Northants 94-3 v Surrey
A third wicket in five overs for Surrey and their first bowling point.
Dan Worrall gets in on the act as he pitches one up, gets a bit of swing and Josh Cobb edges behind where Jamie Smith makes a spectacular diving catch.
From 77-0 to 94-3, Surrey have bounced right back since play resumed.
They are now seven points behind leaders Hampshire.
Glamorgan 165-6 v Middlesex
Glamorgan wicketkeeper Chris Cooke reaches his half-century at Lord's as the visitors continue their fightback from their morning woes.
Somerset 17-2 v Warwickshire
Play is underway again at Edgbaston - with an immediate wicket.
The two-hour plus break allowed Warwickshire's bowling attack to continue unchanged - and senior paceman Oliver Hannon-Dalby did the job second ball.
OHD was miserly in his first spell, interrupted only by the weather. And he now gets one through the defences of Somerset skipper Tom Abell.
George Bartlett is the new man in.

Yorkshire 122-8 v Essex
Ben Coad is not going to hang about with the grey skies now back and the floodlights on.
So he sends a Shane Snater delivery straight back over the bowler's head for a maximum.
Coad's tactic of trying to get some quick runs is probably a wise move.
Northants 91-2 v Surrey
Kemar Roach nearly has a second wicket as Luke Procter nibbles at one outside off stump.
But two balls later, the West Indies fast bowler does get his second.
Roach gets another one to bounce and Procter shoulders one to gully where Cameron Steel takes the catch.
Yorkshire 100-8 v Essex
Jordan Thompson can hit a big ball but not on this occasion.
He tries a big drive but succeeds only in edging it straight to Sir Alastair Cook at first slip.
Ben Allison has his first wicket of the innings.
Yorkshire 100-7 v Essex
Bowled him. Off stump out of the ground!
No sooner had Jonny Tattersall brought up his team's 100 than he has his off stump sent flying by Shane Snater.
Tattersall was starting to look good, but the White Rose skipper is now out.

Better news in Birmingham.
Following a 1:55 inspection by umpires Neil Mallender and James Middlebrook, a restart is now expected at 2:15.

Northants 77-1 v Surrey
The breakthrough for Surrey.
Kemar Roach shows the value of extra pace as he gets one to bounce a touch higher and Will Young nicks a sharp one to second slip as he tries to force it off the back foot.
Will Surrey be able to find some more wickets this afternoon?
Yorkshire 87-6 v Essex
Sunshine or not, it remains a bowler's day at Headingley.
A bit of in-dip from Shane Snater takes a thin edge from Matt Revis' bat and it is regulation stuff for Adam Rossington.
Snater now has two for 11, while Rossington has four catches behind the stumps.
Northants 73-0
Image source, Getty ImagesAn excellent half-century for Emilio Gay as he hits his first ball after the resumption from Kemar Roach for three through the covers.
That is his fifth of the season in the Championship.
He will want to go on and make a second hundred, after a career-best 112 versus Kent in July.
Northants 70-0 v Surrey
We are ready to resume at Wantage Road.
After winning the toss this morning, Surrey will want to make a few inroads into the Northants batting.
Tom Curran will complete his fifth over with one ball to Northants skipper Will Young.
Yorkshire 79-5 v Essex
A welcome sight for the Yorkshire batters as the sun makes an appearance in Leeds.
It might offer them a sense of respite from Essex's tight bowling.
Sussex 106-7 v Worcestershire
Another wicket for Worcestershire - and a fourth for Joe Leach as he bags Faheem Ashraf cheaply.
The Pears still have promotion pretensions. And it shows.
Sussex lose their sixth wicket against Worcestershire at Hove as Fynn Hudson-Prentice reaches his 50 and is then caught behind by Gareth Roderick off Dillon Pennington.
The host are now on 106-6, with James Coles on 29.
Same story in the fourth v second clash at Lord's where Kiran Carlson is caught behind for 36 by John Simpson to give Middlesex paceman Tim Murtagh his third wicket.
Glamorgan are on 129-6, with Chris Cooke on 29.
No play after lunch yet in the other Divison Two game at Leicester.
Yorkshire 72-5 v Essex
It is a special day for Sam Cook as he has now notched up 200 first-class career wickets.
Coming in 56 matches, he has an average of under 20 and at the age of 25, time is on his side to grab plenty more.

It looks like the worst of the weather today is confined to the Midlands - and East Midlands.
Only three games currently have play. They're still off at Edgbaston, Northampton and Leicester.
But at least it sounds a bit more encouaraging now at Wantage Road.
