Henry Crocombe celebrates a wicket
Take a bow Henry Crocombe.
He polishes off the Essex innings and completes a remarkable collapse by bowling Jamie Porter. As the players rush to congratulate him he makes sure he gets the match ball from the umpire.
After posting a second consecutive hat-trick following his three wicket burst last week against Somerset he has mopped up the remainder to complete a five wicket haul (5-39).
For the record his victims were Charlie Allison and then Simon Harmer, Zaman Ahkter and Shane Snater in consecutive balls followed by Porter to clean up the innings.
It has been a staggering collapse from Essex who have lost 7- 6 going from 171-3 to 177 all out.

Hurst b Sharma 46 (Middx 247 v Lancs 126-7)

Vicious late swing as Matty Hurst looks to drive in the off stump channel and through it goes, hitting leg stump and sending it cartwheeling towards the wicketkeeper.

Bamber c Brown b Neal 2 (Hants v Warks 396-9)

Warwickshire almost done. Hampshire doing well to prevent Warwickshire adding more.
Ethan Bamber edges a forward defensive to give spinner Andrew Neal a deserved third wicket.

Smith c Brown b Fuller 51 (Hants v Warks 393-8)

Kai Smith can't build on his 50 and edges Ricardo Fuller to be caught behind.

Killeen b Coles 0 (Essex 176-9 v Sussex 275)

This is a staggering collapse and Matt Critchley is watching on from the non striker's end wondering what on earth is happening.
That is now 6-5 in 20 balls and the game has spun on its heel and hurtled towards Sussex.
WICKETpublished at 16:36 BST
Revis c Pope b Fisher 3 (Surrey v Yorks 52-6 lead by 163)

Matthew Revis drives at Matt Fisher and is caught at second slip.
Fisher has his fourth wicket of the innings and Pope his fourth catch of the match.

50 for Smithpublished at 16:34 BST
Hants v Warks 391-7

Kai Smith runs a single to bring up the fifth half century of his fledgling first class career.
Next ball he's dropped as Nick Gubbins gets two hands to a leading edge at cover but drops it and Andrew Neal misses out on a wicket again.
HAT TRICK!published at 16:32 BST
Snater b Crocombe 0 (Essex 175-8 v Sussex 275)

And he has done it,
Firing in a yorker he cleans up Shane Snater's leg stump.
And not only has he done it but he has done it again, posting back to back hat-tricks in consecutive matches after doing it against Somerset last week.

WICKETpublished at 16:28 BST
Bairstow b Fisher 13 (Surrey v Yorks 51-5 lead by 153)

Well I suppose that's a partnership of sorts as Yorkshire add 15 for the fifth wicket.
Johnny Bairstow survives a run out chance but then has his off stump knocked over by Matt Fisher.
WICKETpublished at 16:27 BST
Ahkter lbw b Crocombe 0 (Essex 175-7 v Sussex 275)

Two in two for Henry Crocombe and he is on a hat-trick. Shane Snater is the new bat.

WICKETpublished at 16:26 BST
Rew c Cooke b Hamza 52 (Somerset 314-6 v Glam 194)

James Rew has made plenty of runs clipping off his legs but he has come a cropper here, tickling one to Chris Cooke behind the stumps.
WICKETpublished at 16:25 BST
Pepper lbw b Coles 1 (Essex 172-5 v Sussex 275)

An attempted sweep misses and James Coles does not. Not much doubt about that as Michael Pepper's run drought continues.
Sussex are right back in this contest now.

Bonus points done in the Warwickshire inningspublished at 16:24 BST
Hants v Warks 385-7

If anyone other than Kyle Abbott was bowling the 110th over Warwickshire might have tried to get the runs they needed for a fourth batting point but there was no chance of them hitting 16 off the South African.
So it's three batting points for Warwickshire and two bowling points for Hampshire.
Interesting to see how the Bears approach it now. How many do they want before getting Hampshire in?
For Hampshire events at The Oval means a high scoring draw might not be a bad result for them.
WICKETpublished at 16:23 BST
Abell c Ingram b van der Gugten 40 (Somerset 306-5 v Glam 194)

A fraction of seam movement away from the batsman and Tom Abell has jabbed his bat down and given an edge which is well caught at first slip by Colin Ingram.

50 for James Rewpublished at 16:21 BST
Somerset 306-4 v Glam 194

James Rew clips Timm van der Gugten off his legs for three runs and he has his half century off 78 balls.
50 for Zak Crawleypublished at 16:21 BST

The news continues to be good for Kent as Zak Crawley brings up his half-century with push for two through the covers.
It's his third in as many games for Kent and looks like be hugely important.
It's come off 78 balls and contained eight fours.
Kent's lead is 112.

for Smithpublished at 16:17 BST
Hants v Warks 380-7

With seven balls to go it's probably too late for the Bears to claim a fourth batting point but Kai Smith is down on one knee to launch Andrew Neale over mid wicket for six, possibly doing some damage to the ball in the process.
WICKETpublished at 16:17 BST
Allison lbw b Crocombe 56 (Essex 171-4 v Sussex 275)

Charlie Allison has played really well for his half century but Henry Crocombe has beaten him for pace, arrowing one in to hit the pad in front of middle stump.
