Several matches continued to be impacted by bad weather on Sunday.

Surrey put themselves in a strong position to push for victory over Hampshire after a rain-hit third day of their Vitality County Championship match at The Oval.

Hampshire then slid further to 116 for five, a deficit of 92, as James Vince and Tom Prest were dismissed within four balls of each other following the early loss of Nick Gubbins, who was caught in the slips by England’s Ollie Pope off Dan Worrall.South African Roderick made 122 and his partnership of 194 with opener Jake Libby was the foundation of Worcestershire securing four batting bonus points as they built a first-innings lead of 142 at 451 for nine declared.

Essex are set to resume at 314 for three in reply to Durham’s 358, with Nick Browne needing six runs for a century. After then slipping to nine for two, Holden, who finished 105 not out, and Higgins, ending the day unbeaten on 102 against his former club, fronted the recovery.Northamptonshire’s hopes of turning a strong position into a first Championship victory suffered a setback as heavy rain removed any prospect of play on day three against Leicestershire at the County Ground.
