    Lancashire v Kent 19-1

    George Balderson comes into the attack as first change bowler for Lancashire to replace Tom Bailey and he starts up with a tidy maiden.

    Just the 1.9 run rate for Kent so far in those opening 10 overs and one batter already back in the hut.

    Durham 79-2 v Derbys

    Easy as you like, David Bedingham clips a ball from Nick Potts to the mid-wicket boundary - the first four of the afternoon at the Riverside.

    It takes the South African Test player's score into double figures.

    Absolutely wonderful shot by Thomas Rew.

    He's quickly onto a full delivery outside off from Fergus O'Neill and times it to precision, stroking through the covers for four.

    Duly races away to the boundary and he moves onto 14*.

    Saif Zaib takes just two balls of the afternoon session to bring up his second half-century of the campaign - although with some cause for alarm as he flashes Daz Ahmed just wide of third slip.

    However, the ball runs away for three runs and Zaib moves along to 52 not out from the same number of deliveries.

    Brett Hutton with a maiden over first up after lunch for Notts. Fergus O'Neill will resume from the other end for the hosts.

    Lancashire v Kent 19-1

    You wouldn't know the start of this game was delayed by rain.

    Glorious sunshine at Stanley Park in Blackpool now. Lovely day for a spot of cricket.

    Nottinghamshire v Somerset 63-3

    We are back under way in Nottingham and Brett Hutton will bowl the first over after lunch.

    Can Notts try and rattle through Somerset or will the visitors start to build a platform? An important session of cricket coming up.

    Leics v Essex 2-0

    A sedate start by the Essex openers, with a single coming from each of the first two overs.

    Dean Elgar has scored both of those, so Paul Walter is yet to get off the mark. Ben Green has taken over not only the captaincy from Ian Holland, but also his role as opening bowler alongside Josh Davey.

    Lancashire v Kent 15-1

    Sam Northeast manages to squeeze it under Josh Bohannon in the covers off Jimmy Anderson and pushes for a quick two for Kent.

    Anderson is 1-3 from his first four overs. Economical as ever and a wicket to boot already.

    Lancashire v Kent 13-1

    Sam Northeast picks up a single off Tom Bailey's third over. In comes Jimmy Anderson again now.

    That isn’t so much a good start by Notts as the standard start to a Somerset innings… we are pretty much always 3 down for 60 before lunch!

    Lancashire v Kent 12-1

    Just the one run for Sam Northeast from that Jimmy Anderson over, but more importantly for Lancashire, they take the wicket of Harry Finch.

    Leics v Essex 0-0

    If there are no further weather interruptions, there should be 72 overs of play before a scheduled 7:00pm finish at Grace Road.

    Dean Elgar and Paul Walter are the Essex openers - Josh Davey will bowl the first over for Leicestershire.

    Finch c Jennings b Anderson 2 (Lancashire v Kent 11-1)

    It's that man, yet again.

    Harry Finch flashes hard at a full delivery outside off stump from James Anderson and it absolutely flies towards gully.

    It's high above the head of Keaton Jennings and away to his left but he does brilliantly to chuck up both hands and make a fine grab.

    Finch barely troubles the scorers and Sam Northeast comes to the crease at three for Kent.

    Lancashire v Kent 11-0

    Ben Dawkins takes a quickfire single off Tom Bailey to get off the mark for Kent, before Harry Finch rocks onto the back foot and nudges another one into the offside.

    And that's the third run of the innings off the bat for the visitors, to go with the eight byes as the fourth over comes to an end.

    With the Women's T20 World Cup set to start this evening, a bit of bad news for Scotland, who have lost spinner Abtaha Maqsood from their squad because of injury.

    "Everyone at Essex Cricket is saddened to hear that Abtaha Maqsood has been ruled out of the ICC Women's T20 World Cup after suffering a fracture to her hand. We're all behind you, Abs," her county posted on X.

    Scotland play their first game against Ireland at Old Trafford on Saturday.

    Lancashire v Kent 9-0

    Young wicketkeeper Joe Moores is not going to stand up to Tom Bailey this time. Instead the helmet is chucked to Josh Bohannon, who drops in at short leg.

    Lancashire v Kent 9-0

    He's still got it, has this Jimmy Anderson fella.

    A couple of lovely teasing deliveries outside off to Harry Finch in another very tight maiden over from the former England man.

    Lancashire v Kent 9-0

    Four more byes as Tom Bailey strays down the legside yet again. Slightly harsh on young Joe Moores, who is standing up, but again, not his fault.

    Maybe we will see the teenager stand back again in Bailey's next over.

    Nine from the second over for Kent and eight of those were byes.
