Kasey Aldridge recorded his best figures for Durham as he helped to bowl Gloucestershire out for just 137. It was their second lowest score against their hosts.

Aldridge only bowled five overs but finished with 5-16. His previous best for the county had been 5-19 in a home win against Derbsyhire in June.

Only James Bracey was able to get going with the bat. He was eventually out for 60, LBW to Aldridge in the 42nd over - and at a point where the batsman was running out of partners. Didn't look the best of decisions however!

It will be interesting to see how the Durham batsmen get along in these conditions - and with the lights on. They are up against a depleted Gloucestershire side.

JT Langridge, a 20-year-old left armer, with no Championship experience, has opened the bowling and taken the wicket of Alex Lees. He was caught behind for six.

It's finally stopped raining at a saturated Edgbaston and the umpires have left cover for a look at the middle.

Whether it signals a mopping up operation or a decision to call it a day, we'll soon find out.

This morning, afyer Josh Davey took two early wickets, the ball hooping all over the place - I said on commentary that it was a "green pitch that looks like it will be very good for pace bowling".

Cue a side-eye from my esteemed colleagues who have been here lots of times before. I'm often told I don't know what I'm talking about, but on this one occasion I was told that the pitch can do a lot in the first hour, before settling down.

That is exactly what has happened here. Since those two wickets fell, batting seems a lot easier. James Wharton has seemed comfortable and has passed 50, Sam Whiteman started slowly too before starting to gather pace.

His departure for 49 came out of nowhere really. The tactic seemed to be for Tom Scriven to bowl wide outside off stump and see if Whiteman would take the bait. He did, surprisingly, nicking off.

Matthew Revis has also now just departed to Alex Green - the 19-year-old can be inconsistent but will get you a bit of magic, as he has here.

Yorkshire should be frustrated. The pitch isn't doing too much and Leicestershire's bowling has not been a ferocious as it can be. All season they have struggled to back up good spells, and turn one wicket into two.

They have done it now - but let's see if Leicestershire can back this up and knock down the middle order.

Alex Lees picks up a couple off JR Langridge's first over, with Daz Ahmed taking the fresh cherry from the opposite end, with Ben McKinney on strike.

The word from Wantage Road is they will try to begin play at 15:30 BST.

A lot of work going on to try and dry the square, particularly the run-ups.

We live in hope.

A look at the weather app doesn't look overly promising for this part of the North Yorkshire coast.

Heavy rain is expected soon and is forecast not to relent for the rest of the day.

Matthew Revis and James Wharton (65) will be keen to avoid any mishaps before the weather turns. The tempo has dropped from the innings a tad - are they playing for the close?

Tom Scruven bends his back, but Revis (14) and Wharton (66) trade a single apiece.

Sam Cook beats Adam Thomas with a delivery that was a carbon copy of the ball which removed Dom Sibley.

If he is trying to show England what they are missing he is doing good job. He has yet to concede a run in 18 deliveries.

Alex Lees and Ben McKinney head out at CLS, where the skies remain leaden and the track remains green.

JT Langridge will take the new ball on debut, complete with a flashy white headband. Game's back.

Tea will be taken early before another pitch inspection at Worcester at 15:30 BST.

Keep those fingers crossed.

It hasn't taken long for new batter Matthew Revis to get into his stride, punching a ball from Alex Green off the back foot.

It's placed beautifully through the gap between mid-off and extra cover for his first boundary.

Revis plays the last ball of the over off his hip for four more.

A rare costly over from Green - his previous seven had gone for just 15 runs.

Sam Cook missed out on lunch at Lord's as he was surplus to requirements but after dumping his bags, changing his kit and downing a quick sausage roll, he is into the swing of things at Chelmsford.

His first over was a maiden and he has three dots at the start of his second.
