Yorkshire target below 20published at 17:31 British Summer Time 28 September 2022
Yorks 222-9 (target 241) v Glos
Two more boundaries for Dom Bess, this time off the bowling of Tom Price, brings Yorkshire within 19 runs of victory.
Steven Patterson has held out so far at the other end. What a climax it would be to his Yorkshire career if he could steer them to the win that would secure Division One status for next season.

Notts 662-5d & 121-2 v Durham 207
They remain off for bad light in Nottingham where the hosts are unnecessarily far ahead.
Notts have announced free entry for the final day of the season.
They managed to pack the ground for England's day-five victory over New Zealand earlier this summer, how many can they get in tomorrow to potentially see Notts lift the Division Two title?
for Ali Orrpublished at 17:27 British Summer Time 28 September 2022
Sussex 258 & 239-0 v Glam 533-9d
A career-best for Ali Orr as his whirlwind knock and this incredible revival continues at Hove.
Sussex are now only 36 behind.
Not that it really matters anymore for Glamorgan sadly.
Gloucestershire made to waitpublished at 17:21 British Summer Time 28 September 2022
Yorks 214-9 (target 241) v Glos
It's an enthralling finish at Headingley, where Yorkshire have managed to get the target down to 27.
Dom Bess, who has batted superbly for his 71 not out, thrashed David Payne for successive boundaries, while Steven Patterson has survived 19 deliveries without scoring.
The White Rose also gained a bonus of five penalty runs when a Zafar Gohar delivery struck the helmet behind wicketkeeper James Bracey.
Bess keeps Yorkshire clinging onpublished at 17:07 British Summer Time 28 September 2022
Yorks 201-9 (target 241) v Glos
Tension all around Headingley as Dom Bess tries to steer Yorkshire over the line.
Bess has just cut David Payne for four to bring up the 200, but he's declining singles to keep Steven Patterson away from the seamer.
Patterson played out a maiden from Zafar Gohar, but this is a difficult situation to manage, with Yorkshire still needing 40 for the win that would keep them up.

Northants 163 v Essex 263 & 52-5
Northants have fought back superbly with the ball.
Jack White has just bowled Feroze Khushi to leave Essex five down with a lead of 152.
up for Sussexpublished at 17:05 British Summer Time 28 September 2022
Sussex 258 & 217-0 v Glam 533-9d
This remarkable opening stand continues for Sussex, scoring at above a run a ball.
It must be so draining for Glamorgan, who know that any hope of snatching promotion went the moment Middlesex secured maximum batting points.
Ali Orr has just struck three consecutive sixes off Ajaz Patel and now has eight maximums in 137 from 106 balls!
Five-wicket haulpublished at 16:56 British Summer Time 28 September 2022
Lancashire 512 v Surrey 209 & 151-8
Lancashire spinner Tom Hartley gets his fifth wicket as he traps Tom Lawes lbw.
The hosts are cruising to victory at Old Trafford.

End of twitter postWICKET Fuller c Rhodes b Norwell 26published at 16:55 British Summer Time 28 September 2022
Warwicks 272-4 dec v Hants 311
Warwickshire finally brings this innings to a close as James Fuller is caught at mid-on, Liam Norwell taking the wicket to finish with 4-38.
It means Hampshire - who cannot yet be certain of finishing second in the table - have a lead of 39. Warwickshire need to knock that off in double quick time to stay in this contest.
WICKET Coad lbw b Gohar 9published at 16:52 British Summer Time 28 September 2022
Yorks 191-9 (target 241) v Glos
Nine in the match now for Zafar Gohar - and he'd love to grab one more to complete a Gloucestershire victory!
Ben Coad is leg before to the spinner - and that sets the stage for Steven Patterson, who comes to the wicket to a round of applause.
Imagine the reception Patterson will get if he can bow out by steering Yorkshire to an unlikely win on his farewell appearance! They need 50 to win.
WICKET Wheal c Davies b Hannon-Dalby 0published at 16:47 British Summer Time 28 September 2022
Warwicks 272-4 dec v Hants 307-9
Oliver Hannon-Dalby has deserved a wicket for the way he's bowled today and he finally picks one up, with Brad Wheal getting a faint edge behind.
Fourth dismissal of the innings for Alex Davies and now Warwickshire need to finish this off quickly.
for Dom Besspublished at 16:46 British Summer Time 28 September 2022
Yorks 183-8 (target 241) v Glos
Image source, Rex FeaturesDom Bess nudges Zafar Gohar for a single to bring up his fourth 50 of the season - and, but for that, Yorkshire would be beaten already.
As it is, Bess has kept their hopes just about alive. Ben Coad is alongside him and Yorkshire need 58 to win, with two wickets intact.

Lancashire 512 v Surrey 209 & 147-7
The game is rapidly coming to a conclusion at Old Trafford thanks to Lancashire's spinners.
Surrey have lost three wickets in three consecutive overs and Tom Hartley now has four to his name.
Very much a case of 'After the Lord Mayor's Show' for champions Surrey.

for Ali Orrpublished at 16:41 British Summer Time 28 September 2022
Sussex 258 & 166-0 v Glam 533-9d
What a sparkling innings this has been from the 21-year-old.
Just 82 balls, nine fours and five sixes.
What a way to take the game back to Glamorgan with his side having followed-on 275 behind.
His fourth first-class hundred brought up with a drive wide of third man for three off James Harris.
WICKET Eskinazi c Roderick b Pennington 115published at 16:41 British Summer Time 28 September 2022
Worcs 225 v Middx 437-8
It's taken all day but Worcestershire finally remove Stevie Eskinazi.
What a great innings to put his side in an almost-unassailable position to seal promotion.
208 deliveries and 18 fours.
Dillon Pennington gets one to dart back and flick the edge through to Gareth Roderick.
WICKET Barker c Bethell b Brookes 76published at 16:38 British Summer Time 28 September 2022
Warwicks 272-4 dec v Hants 301-8
Keith Barker's highest score of the season - but he won't get a hundred on his return to Edgbaston, pulling Henry Brookes to midwicket.
However, you feel Barker has done his job, adding 71 for the eighth wicket with James Fuller and guiding Hampshire into a lead of 29.
Bad light stops play at Trent Bridgepublished at 16:38 British Summer Time 28 September 2022
Notts 662-9d & 121-2 v Durham 207
Still 28 overs to try and fit in at Trent Bridge but the light has closed in.
Notts still, for some reason, batting.
Maybe they want to set up as full as day as possible tomorrow for a grand finale to the season?
Haseen Hameed is 49 and Joe Clarke 48, both massaging their averages.
WICKET Fisher c Taylor b Payne 7published at 16:33 British Summer Time 28 September 2022
Yorks 172-7 (target 241) v Glos
Yorkshire are eight down!
Matt Fisher is the latest to go, fishing outside off stump at David Payne and Jack Taylor takes the catch at second slip.
The home side need 69 and, with Dom Bess unbeaten on 43, they may still have a glimmer of hope.
Elsewhere...published at 16:27 British Summer Time 28 September 2022
Surrey are now four down in their second innings at Old Trafford. Cameron Steel has just been run out to leave them 142-4 and still needing 161 to make Lancashire bat again.
Ben Sanderson has picked up a couple of wickets for Northants against Essex, but Essex are still in the driving seat. They're 40-2 and leading by 140.
In Division Two, Leicestershire are faring better in their second innings against Derbyshire on 80-1. They still trail by 238 though.
