  1. wicket

    WICKET Cook lbw Bailey 40published at 16:42 British Summer Time 20 September 2022

    Essex 96-7 v Lancs 131

    The big wicket for Lancashire!

    Alastair Cook is caught on the crease, and is trapped in front by one that nips back from Tom Bailey.

    Essex have a lot of work to do now in order to get beyond Lancashire's 131.

  2. 150 runs

    for David Lloydpublished at 16:41 British Summer Time 20 September 2022

    Glamorgan 287-3 v Derbyshire

    Well batted David Lloyd who flays Luis Reece through cover for four to reach 150 off 218 balls.

    The next one is pulled the backward square leg boundary and that's a 100 partnership with Billy Root, who is 37 not out at the other end.

    Surrey 287-6 v Yorks

    It only seems two minutes since Surrey achieved a second batting point and now they are rushing towards a third.

    Ben Mike is short and wide and Jamie Overton crashes it over backward point for four.

    Mike now has 0-86 from 12 overs.

  4. Postpublished at 16:39 British Summer Time 20 September 2022

    Somerset 226-3 v Northants

    An expensive over by Rob Keogh.

    Tom Abell reverse sweeps two successive deliveries for four as he moves to 90 not out.

    The final ball of the over is driven through the covers for four by Lewis Goldsworthy.

  5. Postpublished at 16:39 British Summer Time 20 September 2022

    Gloucs v Warwks 239-6

    More frustration for the new ball attack as Payne is clipped through mid wicket by Briggs for four runs. That's his 10th boundary.

    Sibley takes a single off Tom Price and Briggs carves the bowler away through point for four more to bring up the 100 partnership for the seventh wicket.

    For those who haven't checked the fixtures, it's Lancashire v Surrey next week.

  7. Postpublished at 16:35 British Summer Time 20 September 2022

    Somerset 213-3 v Northants

    A tidy over by Lizaad Williams yields only a single.

    There are just two to go before the new ball is available and Northants will be hoping to make some further inroads with that.

    Tom Abell is 81 not out for Somerset.

  8. wicket

    WICKET Organ c Leaning b Podmore 10published at 16:35 British Summer Time 20 September 2022

    Hampshire 12-1 v Kent 165

    Kent have an early breakthrough.

    A good delivery from Harry Podmore shapes away from Felix Organ, who nicks it to a gleeful Jack Leaning - he gobbles up the chance.

    Joe Weatherley joins Ian Holland in the middle.

  9. Postpublished at 16:35 British Summer Time 20 September 2022

    Worcs 263-5 v Notts

    Four more runs for D'Oliveira, who moves into the 80s with a neat drive through cover.

    A single apiece for him and Roderick.

    The Pears are enjoying an excellent evening session thus far.

  10. Division Two updatepublished at 16:33 British Summer Time 20 September 2022

    Durham have begun their reply to Sussex's 162 all out at the Riverside - they are 8-0 after four overs with Michael Jones and Sean Dickson, who will join Somerset next season - together in the middle.

    David Lloyd is now 145 not out for Glamorgan against Derbyshire - the Welsh club are 272-3 in the 76th over.

    John Simpson and Ryan Higgins are nearing a century partnership for Middlesex, who are 232-5 in the 78th against Leicestershire.

  11. Postpublished at 16:30 British Summer Time 20 September 2022

    Gloucs v Warwks 229-6

    Sibley miscues a drive off Tom Price and moves to 89 with an inside edge down to fine leg for four runs.

    The third ball is driven with much more assurance through the off side for four more.

    The new ball is profiting Warwickshire more than their hosts so far.

  12. Postpublished at 16:30 British Summer Time 20 September 2022

    Surrey 283-6 v Yorks

    Jamie Overton isn't the kind of batter you want to see walking out when you are having an off day.

    Ben Mike persists with the tactic of banging them in short and Overton has plenty of time to pull the first ball of a new over away for four.

  13. Postpublished at 16:30 British Summer Time 20 September 2022

    Essex 91-6 v Lancs 131

    Simon Harmer gets off the mark, walking across his stumps and whipping a fullish delivery through midwicket for four.

    Alastair Cook then tucks into a juicy pie from Matt Parkinson - four more.

  14. 6 runs

    D'Oliveira punishes Nottspublished at 16:26 British Summer Time 20 September 2022

    Worcs 250-5 v Notts

    Steven Mullaney bowls halfway down the pitch just outside the line of off stump - and is pulled high over mid-wicket by D'Oliveira for six runs.

    That's a stylish way to bring up the 150 partnership with Gareth Roderick.

  15. wicket

    WICKET Pope b Patterson 136published at 16:24 British Summer Time 20 September 2022

    Surrey 278-6 v Yorks

    Jordan Clark tucks Steve Patterson off his legs for one and reaches a 94-ball half-century.

    But the former Yorkshire skipper makes the breakthrough his side badly needed as Ollie Pope plays around a straight one and is bowled.

    Ne Batted for 202 minutes, faces 131 balls and hit two sixes and 16 fours.

    That's four wickets in the innings for Patterson now.

    Surrey 277-5 v Yorks

    This has been a very tough Yorkshire baptism for Ben Mike.

    Short balls have been an unproductive mode of attack for him and the latest is uppercut for six by Ollie Pope, who moves on to 136.

  17. new ball

    New ball at Bristolpublished at 16:23 British Summer Time 20 September 2022

    Gloucs v Warwks 219-6

    Unsurprisingly, it has been taken straight away.

    David Payne has the shiny new nut.

  18. 50 runs

    50 for Danny Briggspublished at 16:22 British Summer Time 20 September 2022

    Gloucs v Warwks 219-6

    79 overs bowled at Bristol.

    Off spinner Ollie Price bowls to Briggs who tries to push the ball past mid off. No run.

    The third ball is driven past mid on for two.

    A drive through the covers brings up four runs and an impressive 50 from 86 balls with seven fours.

  19. wicket

    WICKET Bartlett c Young b Keogh 62published at 16:22 British Summer Time 20 September 2022

    Somerset 206-3 v Northants

    Somerset have a batting point and George Bartlett celebrates by hoisting Rob Keogh over long-on for six.

    But it is his last scoring shot as he pushes forward defensively and Keogh finds a bit of drift to take the edge, with Will Young diving to pick up a low slip catch.

    Bartlett and Tom Abell put on 134 for the third wicket.

  20. Postpublished at 16:17 British Summer Time 20 September 2022

    Worcs 237-5 v Notts

    Mullaney is driven straight down the ground by Roderick for four runs.

    He's rattled along to 70 after beginning this session of play on 41.

    Two more runs for Roderick from an inside-edged drive to fine leg.

    The partnership is worth 138. New ball is due in four overs.
