And after the failure of the top order, Worcestershire continue to battle at New Road. Twenty overs but no more wickets for Stokes. Worcs 272-9.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s continuing to rain at OT where we\u2019ve taken an early lunch.<\/p>\n
Share<\/a><\/p>\n As the rain continues, Ken Grime plays us Red Rose\/The Ballad of David Hughes as recorded by Lancs CCC at Strawberry Studios in Stockport in 1972. It\u2019s certainly of its time\u2026<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Actually they\u2019re all out. Losing six for 15 in 14 overs. Five catches for Rob Yates. Bad Yorkshire.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a007.34 EDT<\/p>\n Four wickets for OHD at Edgbaston, Yorkshire have subsided \u2013 losing five for 15 since Harry Brook was bowled chasing an elaborate drive. Yorks 152-9 only lead Warwicks by five.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Now hosing it down at OT.<\/p>\n Share<\/a>Rain at OT<\/p>\n Or maybe bad light. Anyway, they\u2019ve come off \u2013 Middlesex 116-5, Leus du Plooy 39 not out. Looks pretty miserable to be honest.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Dan Hughes collects a rapid fifty at Hove, after Tom Clark and Dan Ibrahim were both extracted c Rishi Patel, b Tom Helm.

Photograph: John Mallett\/ProSports\/ShutterstockShare<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a007.50 EDT<\/p>\n Notts\u2019 tail is causing Surrey some frustration. Joe Clarke was out without adding to his overnight score but 41 from Fergus O\u2019Neill and 25 not out from Olly Stone has added another 58. Notts 375-9.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Glammy have lost both openers, ul Hassan following Asa Tribe back into the dressing room. A wicket each for Gregory and Ball. Glamorgan 38-2, trail by 316.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n James Fuller has been chopping through Essex, though has hit some resistance in the shape of Matt Critchley and Wiaan Mulder. Essex 104-5, trail Hants by 131.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n (a fearsome drive by du Plooy off Stanley \u2013 ping! over mid off)<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Some nasty looking skies approaching from behind the OT pavilion. Higgins and du Plooy at the moment fighting off the Lancashire storm 90-4, trail by 111. Time to wander round the grounds.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Oooof, a nasty, brutish delivery from Mitchell Stanley to unsettle Ryan Higgins.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Another talked about opener falls early \u2013 Asa Tribe caught for four. Glamorgan 16-1 after Somerset picked up another 17 runs for the last wicket.<\/p>\n Share<\/a>Brook out!<\/p>\n and Bairstow, both bowled. Brook driving, Ethan Bamber picking out off stump. YJB totally misjudging Olly Dannon-Dalby and watching the ball jingle into his stumps. Yorkshire 142-6, still trail by five.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n No hundred for Falconer on Championship debut, a chorus of bouncing slips and an imploring Tom Bailey enough for the umpire to raise an off-you-go finger to an lbw shout.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Poor Zak Crawley out again cheaply, chopping on . I really hope this doesn\u2019t disintegrate into a Haseeb Hameed 2019 summer and that someone has an arm round his shoulder. Kent 13-1.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n An injury replacement here at OT \u2013 Yorkshire\u2019s Harry Duke has joined Middlesex for a two-week loan to replace Joe Cracknell, who hurt a finger standing up to Jennings yesterday. Middlesex 50-3.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Five slips, Jimmy pistoning in. Middlesex supporters, hunker down.<\/p>\n A test for young Caleb Faulkner on county debut, who scored 100 in the U19 World Cup final.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Updated at\u00a006.12 EDT<\/p>\n That didn\u2019t take long. Jimmy Anderson comes on at the Jimmy Anderson end, and first ball Ben Geddes gives a catch back.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Raf runs her eye over England\u2019s summer, and a first captaincy gig for Charlie Dean.<\/p>\n Share<\/a><\/p>\n Ali\u2019s trip to Worcester to see Ben Stokes bowl.<\/p>\n Share<\/a>Friday’s round-up<\/p>\n The vacancy sign over one England openers slot continues to swing. The selectors fancy James Rew, but he keeps wicket and bats in the middle order for Somerset. How to square the circle? Friday\u2019s answer was Rew opening for Somerset<\/a> for the first time in his first-class career. It was a short-lived experiment, Rew lasting just seven balls before being bowled for four.<\/p>\n Around Rew there were runs for young Josh Thomas (71) and Tom Lammonby (45) before Glamorgan debutant Tom Norton picked the first of three wickets. Tom Abell\u2019s 86 propped up the rest of the innings.<\/p>\n Dan Worrall slipped into his Surrey bowling boots for the first time this spring and soon dismissed Nottinghamshire\u2019s openers. He pocketed another wicket when Ben Duckett (42) fended at a lifter, and another two in a mini Notts collapse of four for five. Joe Clarke\u2019s unbeaten 129, his second century of a rich early season, kept Notts in the match.<\/p>\n Middlesex\u2019s skilled young seam attack made Lancashire work hard for their runs, Keaton Jennings (67), was, as ever, the glue. James Anderson then reduced Middlesex to 38 for two as the clouds closed in.<\/p>\n Jack White (four for 49) and his band of Yorkshire right-arm seamers ruined Warwickshire, a string of single digit scores strung together by 57 from Sam Hain. Harry Brook, in his first innings of the summer, got off the mark with an outrageously dismissive cover drive.<\/p>\n Half-centuries for Jake Lehmann and Ben Brown hauled Hampshire towards near respectability against Essex. A marauding Sam Cook (three for 56) took out the top order and Wiaan Mulder finished things off.<\/p>\n Sussex kept Leicestershire in sight, despite dropping six catches. Jack Carson pocketed four wickets and the impressive Ollie Robinson three.<\/p>\n An unbeaten 91 from Caleb Jewell topped a morale-boosting day for Derbyshire against Northamptonshire.<\/p>\n Share<\/a>Scores on the doors<\/p>\n DIVISION ONE<\/p>\n Chelmsford: Essex 51-2 v Hampshire<\/a> 235<\/p>\n Sophia Gardens: Glamorgan<\/a> v Somerset 337-9<\/p>\n Trent Bridge: Nottinghamshire<\/a> 317-7 v Surrey<\/p>\n Hove: Sussex 3-0 v Leicestershire<\/a> 328<\/p>\n Edgbaston: Warwickshire<\/a> 147 v Yorkshire 110-4<\/p>\n DIVISION TWO<\/p>\n The County Ground: Derbyshire 342-3 v Northamptonshire<\/p>\n Bristol: Gloucestershire<\/a> 325 v Kent 1-0<\/p>\n Old Trafford: Lancashire<\/a> 201 v Middlesex 38-2<\/p>\n New Road: Worcestershire<\/a> 209-7 v Durham<\/p>\n
