Thanks Shelsey.

Napier 7 - 90 against Leics

Rain stopped play at Headingly and Derby.

2 day match - Lancs v Northants - was due to poor batting and difficult overhead conditions.

Pendolino has Somerset innings tilting badly after he takes 4 - 61.

Derbyshire are ahead against Somerset, though not decisively so. Somerset trail by 86 with 4 wkts remaining. Compton managed 15 for Somerset.

Sussex reached 91-1 on a damp opening day against Notts.

Glamorgan are on the brink of defeat at New Road. They trail by 28 with three wickets remaining. Earlier in the match Moeen Ali made 250 for Worcs. Jack Shantry has taken four wickets in each innings as Glamorgan follow on.

Matthew Hoggard took the first four Essex wickets as they slid to 28-4 before a recovery of sorts guided them to 196-6 at the close in reply to Leicestershire's 302.

Tight finish in prospect at Derby.  Both sides badly need a win, but both may have  almost as strong a wish to avoid giving their opponents a win.

Somerset 48-0 chasing 144 to win. Fingers crossed for a win eventually...

Somerset duly completed victory after a few alarms.  Big boost for Somerset.  Derby cast adrift.  Warks not looking good, though even a reasonable performance in their match in hand would lift them some distance clear of Somerset and Surrey.  Surrey, despite still not having won a match, only three points behind Somerset.

Somer   9 1 3 5 72
Surrey  9 0 2 7 69
Warks   8 1 2 5 68
Derby   8 0 5 3 43
