    It's now lunch at seven of the eight remaining games, apart from at Hove where Yorkshire are nine down.

    Time for a look at the latest scores...

  3. Essex four down at lunchpublished at 13:06 British Summer Time 24 April 2021

    Warwickshire 284 v Essex 295 & 25-4

    Paul Walter has just gone to the final ball of the morning session after he nicked Oliver Hannon-Dalby behind.

    Essex are 25-4 in their second innings and only lead by 36.

    What a mini-session that was for the Bears.

  4. wicket

    Northants all out for 364published at 13:02 British Summer Time 24 April 2021

    Northants 364 v Glamorgan 407

    Michael Hogan bowls Ben Sanderson to bring the Northants innings to a close .

    It's finely poised and Glamorgan will come out after the lunch break looking to add to their 43-run lead.

  5. wicket

    Kent all out for 169published at 13:01 British Summer Time 24 April 2021

    Kent 169 v Lancashire 525

    Miguel Cummins made a quickfire 19 with two fours and a six, but the Kent innings is brought to an end by a good catch by Dane Vilas off Josh Bohannon's bowling.

    Kent trail by a mammoth 356 and will follow-on.

  6. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 12:58 British Summer Time 24 April 2021

    Browne lbw b Miles 8 (Warwickshire 284 v Essex 295 & 24-3)

    Essex are three down in a hurry at Edgbaston.

    Craig Miles has taken two wickets in consecutive overs, first removing captain Tom Westley for five and he's just pinned opener Nick Browne lbw.

    Essex only lead by 35 and are in a bit of bother just before lunch.

  7. Five-wicket haulpublished at 12:57 British Summer Time 24 April 2021

    Durham 475 v Derbyshire 231-7

    Chris Rushworth has just broken Derbyshire's seventh-wicket stand as Brooke Guest nicked him behind for 37.

    Guest and Harvey Hosein put on 83.

    Rushworth now has 5-52.

  8. Postpublished at 12:52 British Summer Time 24 April 2021

    Sussex 221 v Yorkshire 150 & 254-9

    After that big heave over the ropes, Jordan Thompson is gone.

    Ollie Robinson claims the wicket but he owes it to a sharp one-handed catch at slip from Aaron Thomason.

    Shortly afterwards it's Robinson again who has trapped Dom Bess lbw for 19.

    Two quick wickets for Sussex and they only need one more to close-up the innings.

    Ruhul-Amin Nana: So good to see Haseeb Hameed get some runs after a difficult couple of seasons.

    The Nottinghamshire opener has 83, but his side are in a bit of trouble on 173-5 at New Road. They still trail Worcestershire by 263.

  10. Postpublished at 12:47 British Summer Time 24 April 2021

    Northants 355-9 v Glamorgan 407

    James Harris has removed Nathan Buck for 18 and Northants are nine down.

    Wickets are suddenly tumbling at New Road!

    Charlie Morris claims his third, bowling captain Steven Mullaney.

    That's five in the morning session for the Pears.

    Breaking

    Middlesex (268 & 18-0) beat Surrey (154 & 130) by 10 wickets

    An absolute pasting.

    Middlesex get to their target of 17 in just two and a bit overs.

    But it's been their pacemen who have set up this victory, taking the last seven Surrey wickets for just 25 this morning.

    Surrey remain winless in their opening three games this season. For Middlesex it's a first victory in Group Two.

    Kent 133-9 v Lancashire 525

    Two in two balls for Tom Bailey and suddenly Kent find themselves nine down.

    After bowling Ollie Robinson he takes out Fred Klaassen first ball to leave Kent wobbling.

    Bailey goes close to getting new man Miguel Cummins for the hat-trick - but not quite.

  15. Postpublished at 12:36 British Summer Time 24 April 2021

    Middlesex 10-0 (target 17) v Surrey

    A boundary apiece to Max Holden and Sam Robson in the opening couple of overs and Middlesex need seven more runs.

  16. 'Derbyshire partnership builds'published at 12:34 British Summer Time 24 April 2021

    Durham 475 v Derbyshire 212-6

    Martin Emmerson
    ±«Óãtv Radio Newcastle

    The last thing Derbyshire would have wanted today was the loss of Wayne Madsen in the early exchanges, particularly when he hadn't added to his overnight score of 76.

    But in the second over Paul Coughlin found the shoulder of his bat and the ball looped to Jack Burnham at backward point. He went on to complete a wicket maiden during an impressive spell of pace bowling.

    He also found the edge of Brooke Guest's bat a few times but the 23-year-old batsman managed to see his way through those early, difficult overs and has now added 64 for the seventh wicket with Harvey Hosein.

    Hosein has been in great form so far this season after half centuries in the games against Worcestershire and Warwickshire. But he did have a scare here when edging Matt Salisbury to David Bedingham on 21. I think it was hitting the deck as the slip fielder tried to get his fingers under it and it bounced clear.

  17. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 12:31 British Summer Time 24 April 2021

    Cook c Yates b Hannon-Dalby 10 (Warwickshire 284 v Essex 295 & 16-1)

    Essex opener Alastair Cook goes cheaply as he slaps Oliver Hannon-Dalby to Rob Yates at backward point.

    Great start for the Bears.

  18. Postpublished at 12:30 British Summer Time 24 April 2021

    Middlesex 0-0 (target 17) v Surrey

    Middlesex openers Max Holden and Sam Robson stride to the crease needing just 17 for victory.

    A cakewalk.

  19. Pears chipping awaypublished at 12:27 British Summer Time 24 April 2021

    Worcs 436 v Notts 164-3

    Worcestershire have just taken a third wicket of the morning at New Road and it's former Pears batsman Joe Clarke.

    The right-hander was bowled by Charlie Morris for 27.

    Haseeb Hameed is unbeaten on 80.

  20. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 12:25 British Summer Time 24 April 2021

    Bracey b Abbas 65 (Hampshire 470 v Gloucestershire 161-4)

    Oh no James Bracey - that's not one he'll want to see a replay of.

    After looking in imperious form, he's seriously misjudged a ball from Mohammad Abbas and is out without playing a shot!

    He leaves it completely only to hear the ball clatter into the stumps - have a look at this one for yourselves below.

    Abbas had earlier accounted for Tom Lace too and is the man doing the damage this morning.
