    Sussex v Glamorgan 31-2

    Easy pickings for Kiran Carlson as Henry Crocombe strays onto his pads and the right-hander flicks it to long leg for four.

    Crocombe's final delivery of the over is wide outside off stump and Carlson cracks it away to the point boundary.

    Harrison c Williams b M Taylor 21 (Northants 41-3 v Glos)

    Northamptonshire are in a spot of bother here as Matt Taylor picks up his first wicket of the morning - and secures a first bonus point for the visitors.

    Calvin Harrison tries to pull the left-armer, gets a top edge and immediately lifts his eyes to the sky - in exasperation as much as to see where the ball was heading.

    He knew that already as it sailed comfortably into the hands of Will Williams.

    Saif Zaib, who's making his 200th appearance for Northants, comes to the crease to join Nathan McSweeney - yet to get off the mark from 18 balls.

    Williamson's retirement is next to the picture of that Grace Road pitch. I'd retire as well if I was a batsman and saw that pitch.

    John, Cheltenham

    Re the 1105 picture of Grace Road track. It was much better than that in the 60s when I played on it. It was our school playing field. Football in winter, cricket & athletics summer. Happy days!

    Goldsworthy c Haynes b Hutton 8 (Nottinghamshire v Somerset 20-2)

    Lewis Goldsworthy goes hard outside off but not hard enough...

    The Somerset number three has tried to play aggressively since he came to the middle and it's proved to be his undoing.

    Goldsworthy overstretches at one outside off stump from Brett Hutton and edges to Jack Haynes, who takes a nice catch low to his left at third slip.

    Two catches for Haynes and now a wicket apiece for Nottinghamshire's opening bowling partners.

  5. Postpublished at 11:44 BST 12 June

    Nottinghamshire v Somerset 16-1

    Just the one from Fergus O'Neill's fourth over for Lewis Goldsworthy, taking a single into the offside after trying to flick through the legside but it finds a leading edge towards cover.

    Tight stuff from O'Neill though.

  6. Postpublished at 11:43 BST 12 June

    Sussex v Glamorgan 23-2

    Ben Kellaway tries to drive a ball from Jaydev Unadkat and a thick edge past fourth slip brings him four runs.

    Time for a change by Sussex, who rest Sean Hunt after a spell of 1-4 from four overs, with in-form Henry Crocombe on as first change.

  7. Luxton prospering for Yorkshirepublished at 11:42 BST 12 June

    Yorkshire 32-0 v Warwickshire

    Keighley born Will Luxton is leading the way for Yorkshire on the ground where he made his first class debut in 2022.

    He's helped himself to three boundaries from Olly Hannon-Dalby's first over to move onto 21.

    It's been harder work for Adam Lyth who nearly edges Ethan Bamber in the next over.

    Leics v Essex - start delayed

    Cricket watchers at Grace Road will need to be patient for a bit longer - the pitch hasn't yet dried out sufficiently for play to begin this morning.

    So they'll sit down to lunch at 12:30 BST and, as long as the rain stays away, we should see some cricket 40 minutes later.

    Durham 24-0 v Derbys

    Three fours in an over for Ben McKinney, who tucks Ben Aitchison through mid-wicket and then steers the paceman down to third man before glancing a poor final delivery fine.

    He is 20 not out and Derbyshire call up England spinner Shoaib Bashir to bowl what is only the 11th over of the game.

  10. Postpublished at 11:39 BST 12 June

    Nottinghamshire v Somerset 15-1

    Notts skipper Haseeb Hameed denies an almost certain four for the second time in this match already as he sprawls to his left to prevent Jordan Hermann's straight drive off Brett Hutton from flying to the boundary.

    Hermann does pick up a single into the legside from the next ball before Lewis Goldsworthy sees off three dots from Hutton before taking a single of his own to mid-wicket.

    Nottinghamshire v Somerset 13-1

    Jordan Hermann tries to flick into the legside from Fergus O'Neill but it thuds into his pads and Somerset pick up a single.

    Lewis Goldsworthy then gets off the mark in style as O'Neill serves one up very wide outside off and Goldsworthy cracks it through extra cover for four.

    Five from the over.

    Lancashire v Kent - start delayed by rain

    The umpires have inspected the pitch at Stanley Park in Blackpool and it's not great news yet unfortunately.

    An early lunch will be taken at 12:30 BST.

    We will keep you updated with any further news of a start time if and when we get it.

    Nottinghamshire v Somerset 8-1

    Lewis Goldsworthy hammers one through cover from Brett Hutton but Notts skipper Haseeb Hameed does very well indeed to get down and prevent a certain boundary.

    It's nipping about out there but Goldsworthy is still trying to go on the attack as he tries to drive but inside edges and almost drags on.

    Just the one from the over for Jordan Hermann in the end.

    Procter c Bracey b Clarke 6 (Northants 25-2 v Glos)

    This is turning into a very decent county debut for Kristian Clarke, who has now removed both Northamptonshire openers!

    Luke Procter was trying to pull his bat out of the way as the ball nipped back outside off stump - but he wasn't quick enough and there's a faint edge through into the wicketkeeper's gloves.

    Bit of rebuilding for the home side to do as Clarke's first ball fizzes just past the outside edge of new batter Nathan McSweeney.

    Durham 13-0 v Derbys

    Four slips in place for Mo Abbas, but Ben McKinney collects the first boundary of the game at the Riverside as he steers the Pakistan seamer through the covers. Just a tad overpitched and that was very well timed.

  17. Barker bowls a hat-trick of no ballspublished at 11:28 BST 12 June

    Yorkshire 22-0 v Warwickshire

    It's an over of extras from Keith Barker as he bowls three no-balls in a row.

    Four leg byes are also added to the Yorkshire total.

    Nottinghamshire v Somerset 7-1

    Lewis Goldsworthy comes to the crease and he now faces the challenge of Fergus O'Neill, who is looking dangerous here.

    Goldsworthy survives the rest of the over after Josh Thomas was caught in the slips but not without O'Neill beating the outside edge from the final delivery.

    Sussex v Glamorgan 12-2

    Anyone who has seen Kiran Carlson giving the ball some hammer in the T20 Blast might be surprised that his first 13 faced at Hove have been scoreless. He is finally off the mark with a single as he drives Sean Hunt into the covers.

    Thomas c Haynes b O'Neill 0 (Nottinghamshire v Somerset 7-1)

    Notts players celebrate Fergus O'Neill getting out Josh ThomasImage source, Shutterstock

    Josh Thomas has been tied in knots early doors by Fergus O'Neill and now he's gone for a duck!

    Fergus O'Neill's line just drifts slightly down the legside from the first ball of the over and it flicks Thomas' thigh pad on the way through and runs all the way for four leg-byes down to fine leg.

    But the very next ball, O'Neill is back on a teasing length outside off and Thomas plays slightly across the line and can only edge straight to Jack Haynes at third slip, who takes a decent catch.

    Tough start for Somerset. Great start for Notts.
