The latest in the division two games so far today…

After a late start because of rain, Middlesex have slumped to 100-6 against Sussex at Lord’s after being 27-0 earlier in the day. Eoin Morgan defended gamely for 78 balls but he’s been dislodged by Chris Jordan, who had him caught by Ollie Robinson for 6. James Harris has just been dismissed for a duck, caught by Philip Salt off the bowling of Ollie Robinson for a duck.

Leicestershire are making inroads into the Gloucestershire batting at Bristol where the hosts are struggling on 105-3 after a steady opening partnership of 50 in 22 overs. Miles Hammond, Chris Dent and Benny Howell were all out for 35 runs between them and Mohammed Abbas has two wickets to date.

Graham Wagg and Chris Cooke are at the crease for Glamorgan, where the hosts are struggling on 157-7 against Warwickshire at Colwyn Bay – with two wickets each for Keith Barker, Ollie Stone and Jeetan Patel.

Northants are firmly on top at the Riverside where Durham have been dismissed for 129. Luke Procter took a career best 5-33. The visitors are 24-0 in reply.

Derbyshire have just the two wickets so far, where Kent are 192-2 at Derby. Zak Crawley was prized out agonizingly short of a maiden century first class century, falling lbw to Tony Palladino for 96 and Sean Dickson fell early in the day, lbw to Hardus Viljoen for 4.
