Leaders Surrey hit back at Scarborough but clash with Yorkshire heading for draw
Surrey are just 179 runs adrift of Yorkshire's first-innings 517 for six declared – which featured Matthew Revis' unbeaten ton – as they ended day three on 338 for four. Revis completed his century on the third morning, hitting 110 runs from 134 deliveries as he was supported with an unbeaten 45 from Dom Bess. Bess then starred with the ball to dismiss Dom Sibley – who became the first player to reach 1000 County Championship runs this season – for 52 and Will Jacks for 17, while Surrey skipper Rory Burns scored 78.

Tilak Varma scored 112 as Hampshire dashed title-chasing Nottinghamshire's hopes of victory. In response to Notts' first-innings 578 for eight declared, Hampshire reached 367 for six. Joe Weatherley and Fletcha Middleton both scored 52 before being dismissed by Mohammad Abbas but Varma led the fightback for Hampshire, while Felix Organ finished the day not out on 71. Essex are closing in on victory at Sussex despite James Coles' unbeaten 99. Sussex are 245 for seven in their second innings and still 55 runs behind Essex, who posted 504 at the start of the third morning.

Tom Alsop led the fightback with 72 and was aided by Coles' 99 not out but Matt Critchley finished with figures of three for 33 as Sussex's middle order were restricted to single scores. Warwickshire require another 338 runs with eight wickets remaining in a mammoth chase as their derby clash with Worcestershire hangs in the balance. Ethan Brookes scored 87, backing up a career-best 140 from the first innings, as bottom-of-the-table Worcestershire set the hosts 393 to win. Warwickshire lost both openers inside the first four overs and they ended the day on 55 for two, with both sides harbouring hopes of a win on day four. In Division Two, Rehan Ahmed's stunning match continued as leaders Leicestershire look to clinch victory at second-placed Derbyshire. Ahmed made it 10 wickets in the match by taking the hosts' first four wickets in their second innings, with Derbyshire still 348 runs behind. Ian Holland starred with the bat, scoring 90 before being caught and bowled by Alex Thomson – who finished with four wickets – and Luis Reece took five for 64 as the visitors declared on 236 for nine. Derbyshire's pursuit of 446 was plunged into trouble as Ahmed – who also hit a century in the match – claimed four for 41 runs as they tumbled to 98 for four at close.

The hosts still require 164 to take victory after Asa Tribe and Zain-ul-Hassan were dismissed in the opening 10 overs. Kent duo Harry Finch and Grant Stewart had earlier both scored half-centuries to set Glamorgan their target of 189. Tom Hartley followed up his maiden first-class century by taking six wickets as Lancashire forced Gloucestershire to follow on at Cheltenham.
