  1. wicket

    WICKET D'Oliveira c Robson b Bamber 44published at 17:12 British Summer Time 26 September 2022

    Worcs 167-8 v Middx

    The final barrier between Middlesex and a cheap Worcestershire total has been removed.

    Ethan Bamber goes wide on the crease, angles one in and gets it to straight enough to find Brett D'Oliveira's edge.

    It flies low to second slip where Sam Robson holds a good catch.

  2. wicket

    WICKET Davies b Holland 0published at 17:09 British Summer Time 26 September 2022

    Warwickshire 129-2 v Hampshire

    New man Alex Davies lasts just one ball.

    He offers no shot to Ian Holland and it clips off stump. Holland now on a hat-trick.

    Sam Hain survives as he plays it out to midwicket, but Warwickshire's momentum is stalled somewhat.

  3. wicket

    WICKET Sibley c Donald b Holland 54published at 17:07 British Summer Time 26 September 2022

    Warwickshire 129-1 v Hampshire

    Having batted nicely for his half century, Dominic Sibley is out caught down legside off Ian Holland.

    But an excellent opening stand for the Bears and a good platform to post a competitive score.

  4. Five-wicket haul for Nathan Gilchristpublished at 17:07 British Summer Time 26 September 2022

    Kent v Somerset 195-9

    That is the perfect ball to a tailender first up.

    It's full and straight and crashes into the pads of Sajid Khan. No question that was LBW.

    Gilchrist has figures of 5-55, his first five-wicket haul of the summer.

  5. wicket

    WICKET Aldridge c Robinson b Gilchrist 0published at 17:04 British Summer Time 26 September 2022

    Kent v Somerset 195-8

    Nathan Gilchrist strikes for the fourth time.

    He puts in an effort ball which sees him fall over, but he gets enough bounce to draw a false shot from Kasey Aldridge, who can only fend it behind.

  6. 50 runs

    for Dominic Sibleypublished at 17:03 British Summer Time 26 September 2022

    Warwickshire 128-0 v Hampshire

    Dominic Sibley strokes James Fuller to the boundary to bring up a half century in his final game for Warwickshire.

  7. wicket

    WICKET Waite b Higgins 16published at 16:59 British Summer Time 26 September 2022

    Worcs 157-7 v Middx

    Oh goodness this has jagged back!

    Ryan Higgins gets one to tear in from quite a way outside off and rips through Matthew Waite to take out off stump.

    It landed at least another set wide of the stumps and violently darted in.

  8. wicket

    WICKET Overton b Gilchrist 30published at 16:56 British Summer Time 26 September 2022

    Kent v Somerset 195-7

    Off stump out of the ground!

    Nathan Gilchrist produces a beauty to send Craig Overton packing for his third wicket.

    The big man had again shown how dangerous he can be as a lower order player, adding 79 with Lewis Goldsworthy as Somerset try to fight back.

  9. Jennings becomes leading run-scorerpublished at 16:55 British Summer Time 26 September 2022

    Lancashire 352-5 v Surrey

    Keaton Jennings flicks one away off Kemar Roach to move up to 160 not out.

    That takes him above Kent's Ben Compton as the leading run scorer in Division One this season.

  10. wicket

    WICKET Hill c Bracey b Payne 12published at 16:51 British Summer Time 26 September 2022

    Yorkshire 32-2 v Gloucestershire 190

    Frustration for George Hill.

    David Payne offers a bit more width and Hill takes the bait and is caught behind.

    Northants have taken three quick wickets to leave Essex in all sorts of bother.

    Feroze Khushi, Michael Pepper and Simon Harmer have fallen in the space of four and a bit overs to leave the visitors seven down.

    Tom Westley is fighting a lone cause on 29.

  12. Postpublished at 16:39 British Summer Time 26 September 2022

    Kent v Somerset 182-6

    This is a great counter attack from Lewis Goldsworthy as he strikes Conor McKerr for two more boundaries.

    He is up to 90 off 136 balls and this partnership with Craig Overton is now worth 66.

  13. Bad light stops play at Trent Bridgepublished at 16:36 British Summer Time 26 September 2022

    Notts 276-2 v Durham

    Light the only thing that can stop Notts today?

    They have hummed along with centuries from Haseeb Hameed and Matt Montgomery.

  14. Century stand for the Bearspublished at 16:30 British Summer Time 26 September 2022

    Warwickshire 101-0 v Hampshire

    A glorious straight drive from Rob Yates and he sends a Brad Wheal delivery to the fence to bring up the 100.

    It is the first century opening partnership of the season for Warwickshire in a first innings. The previous best was 63.

  15. 150 runs

    for Keaton Jenningspublished at 16:29 British Summer Time 26 September 2022

    Lancashire 317-5 v Surrey

    Keaton Jennings guides Cameron Steel out into the deep to pick up three and reach his 150.

    It's the eighth time in his first-class career that the 30-year-old has reached that milestone.

    He looks in the mood for a big score here.

  16. wicket

    WICKET Wharton lbw b Singh Dale 0published at 16:28 British Summer Time 26 September 2022

    Yorkshire 13-1 v Gloucestershire 190

    James Wharton is put out of his misery.

    After 27 scoreless deliveries, Wharton is trapped in front on the 28th by a quicker ball from Ajeet Singh Dale.

    Tricky times for Yorkshire under the lights.

  17. Final session beginspublished at 16:24 British Summer Time 26 September 2022

    Warwickshire 95-0 v Hampshire

    The final session begins at Edgbaston. There are a potential 27 overs to go before the scheduled close.

  18. Bad light stops play at Hovepublished at 16:23 British Summer Time 26 September 2022

    Sussex v Glam 221-3

    Not what Shubman Gill wanted being 91 not out.

    But a great day for Glamorgan so far having won the toss.

  19. Postpublished at 16:23 British Summer Time 26 September 2022

    Kent v Somerset 156-6

    Two cracking shots from Lewis Goldsworthy off Conor McKerr takes the batter up to 72 and the Somerset total past the 150 mark.

    Warwickshire will be pleased to hear about Goldsworthy's resistance.

  20. wicket

    WICKET Bell run out (Steel) 2published at 16:19 British Summer Time 26 September 2022

    Lancashire 304-5 v Surrey

    George Bell, who turned 20 yesterday, is run out in the most unfortunate manner.

    Keaton Jennings hits it straight, Cameron Steel gets a hand on it and deflects it onto the stumps with Bell's bat not quite down according to the TV replays.

    A revival for Surrey as they have claimed 3-13.
