Opener Daniel Hughes gave the visitors something to cheer with an impressive rearguard 56 not out from 131 would now be a significant surprise if Revis is not selected to tour Australia with the England Lions this winter. Another man who could be on that tour is George Hill, with whom Revis shared an entertaining seventh-wicket partnership of 140 either side of all-rounder Hill contributed a season's best 75 off 93 balls. He has already had Lions exposure this summer, courtesy of his near 40-wicket campaign with the Sussex, off-spinner Jack Carson plugged away with 3-150 from 43 overs. But he was swimming against the who started the day on 22, drove handsomely down the ground before pulling a couple of sixes off Carson just before Yorkshire declared minutes before 15:00 lunch, Hill lofted Carson over long-on for six and out of the ground at the Trafalgar Square reached his fifty off 77 balls and his fifth career first-class century off 137, the latter on the stroke of lunch.

The pair have shared an unbroken 95, with Ibrahim 50 not reached 50 off 111 balls with the day's final delivery.

They will be mightily frustrated at letting things slip on day three when Yorkshire were 273-8 in reply to a first-innings Matthew Revis and Ben Coad were the ones to turn the tide for Yorkshire, new-ball seamer Jack White supplemented their good work with an excellent 4-37 from 20.1 overs in the second innings and seven wickets in the Revis hit a first-innings 150 and struck once with the ball on Wednesday, removing England fringe batter Jordan Cox for 55. Seamer Coad hit a career-best 89 and completed an excellent 3-33 from 17 struck three times during a 55-minute morning session which was bookended by rain. Coad and new-ball partner White did the damage as Essex slipped to 48-6 in 28 overs. The visitors had started on Simon Harmer sliced a low catch to Abdullah Shafique diving forwards at gully, handing Coad a third wicket of the innings, before White trapped Matt Critchley lbw pushing forwards and sent Charlie Allison's off-stump was due to restart following an early lunch, though more rain briefly delayed things as the players scuttled back in when ready to play did get under way, with a minimum of 68 overs remaining and Essex 48-6, Cox and Michael Pepper frustrated the hosts by sharing 59 to take their county into the was somewhat of a surprise to see Cox drive expansively against Revis' seam, getting an under-edge behind shortly after reaching his fifty off 89 balls. That left Essex at 107-7, leading by it was bordering on shock when Pepper edged behind a similarly aggressive cut against White almost seven overs later, leaving Essex at 114-8 with a lead of Bess's off-spin bowled Noah Thain shortly afterwards before White wrapped things up by getting Khaleel Ahmed caught at second slip by Adam Lyth, signalling the break, Yorkshire dotted the i's and crossed the t's on a 20-point haul to jump up to eighth in the Lyth and Fin Bean, the latter on his home ground, reached the target in nine overs.

Both men posted career best scores, Revis with 150 off 187 balls and Coad 89 off 110 in a 459 all out started their second innings with 16 overs remaining in the day, trailing by 91, and closed on 33-3 as Coad struck twice with the new visitors had struck three times during a morning which had started with Adam Lyth on 65 and captain Jonny Bairstow on cut two boundaries before falling caught behind for 29 when trying to uppercut another, leaving the hosts 169-4 after 61 overs - the seventh of the batted with a calf injury picked up during the latter stages of day two and edged behind a checked drive against Snater on 84, passing 14,000 career runs in the Championship in the was the first of two wickets for the Dutch international in as many overs with the new ball as Yorkshire fell to 228-6 in the 84th over, with George Hill trapped lbw on the back pad pushing lunch, Simon Harmer's off-spin ousted Will Sutherland lbw before Dom Bess was caught behind down the leg-side, handing Snater a fourth wicket and leaving Yorkshire eight down, 95 behind and in some in between the seventh and eighth wickets, Revis reached his fifty off 89 balls - his second in as many innings after 93 not out against Nottinghamshire at Trent Bridge last came next, few would have predicted as Revis and Coad pinched a second batting point and denied Essex a third bowling heaved two huge leg-side sixes off Noah Thain's seam while Coad hoisted two maximums off spin in reaching his fifty off 69 had secured a lead of two by the time they reached tea at 370-8, with Revis unbeaten on 94 and Coad celebrating his second career fifty - and his second against Essex after 69 at Headingley in a 2022 reached his ton, off 151 balls, inside the opening 10 minutes of the evening and later his maiden 150 off 185 as Essex struggled to finish off the was understandably frustrated when bowled by Matt Critchley's leg-spin, 11 runs short of a maiden century - and Revis then holed out to long-on against the same left Yorkshire with an hour's bowling against an Essex top order now under unexpected that pressure only mounted as Coad continued to influence removed Paul Walter and Tom Westley for ducks as Essex's second innings slipped to 6-2, the former trapped lbw and the latter another batter to be caught behind down when Hill bowled Dean Elgar with a beauty late in the day, Essex ended on supplied by ECB Reporters' Network, supported by Rothesay

County Championship leaders Nottinghamshire held to a draw by Yorkshire
Nottinghamshire stayed top of Rothesay County Championship Division One but their lead is now just two points after the draw with Yorkshire at Trent Bridge. Yorkshire's first innings had stretched until lunch on day four thanks in part to an unbeaten 93 from Matthew Revis, helped by an earlier 224 by Finlay Bean, as they were all out for 510 thus setting an insurmountable challenge for the leaders to overcome to take the win. Advertisement Ben Slater hit an unbeaten 74 for the hosts, the sixth consecutive innings in which he had passed 50, as they reached 148 for one before declaring. Surrey, targeting a fourth successive title, had wrapped up a dominant nine-wicket win over Worcestershire on Tuesday. Danial Ibrahim's unbeaten 121 and John Simpson (85) helped Sussex to a draw at Durham, as they declared on 322 for six. The visitors had resumed play on 111 for four with a lead of 145 and successfully slowed the game down despite probing bowling from Matthew Potts and Ben Raine. Potts came closest to making a breakthrough when Ollie Robinson dropped Simpson on 77, as the teams remained lodged in mid-table. A 215-run sixth-wicket partnership by Tom Westley and Michael Pepper saved Essex from a third County Championship defeat of the season against Hampshire at Chelmsford. Advertisement Essex were still 26 short of making Hampshire bat again at 131 for five when the pair began their three and a half hour partnership – which carried them to 358 for six declared. The visitors had enjoyed a lead of 157 after their first innings but Pepper's 140 – his highest first-class score – and an unbeaten 130 from Westley took the game away from them, despite Hampshire spinner Liam Dawson finishing on four for 82. Warwickshire had been set an unlikely target of 377 from 69 overs by Somerset at Edgbaston, the sides unsurprisingly coasting to a forgettable draw on the final day. Tom Latham's 52 and Sam Hain's unbeaten 68 were all Warwickshire could muster after Somerset had extended their second innings to 229 for eight in the morning. In Division Two, leaders Leicestershire stayed unbeaten but Glamorgan denied them a sixth win in eight games. Advertisement It took a commendable effort from the visitors to deny the Foxes, as centuries from Sam Northeast and Colin Ingram contributed to a fourth-wicket stand of 225 at Grace Road. Glamorgan were 92 behind and three wickets down at the start of the day but Northeast's 139 and Ingram's unbeaten 133 helped them to a second-innings total of 342 for six when the declaration came. Second-placed Derbyshire were made to settle for a draw despite 91 not out from Harry Came against Gloucestershire at Bristol. The visitors had at one stage been 177 without loss, chasing 316, but their pursuit of victory was undone by Graeme van Buuren's four for 64. Anuj Dal's late 36 not out saw the visitors finish short on 296 for eight. James Sales (108) and Luke Procter (107) shone as Northamptonshire successfully chased down Middlesex's 311 with 10 overs to spare at Wantage Road to claim victory. Advertisement Kent ended a run of four straight defeats and denied Lancashire a first win of the season in James Anderson's first match as captain thanks to Grant Stewart's 130. An eighth-wicket stand of 182 from Stewart and Joey Evison helped Kent hit back from a slow start to their second innings to finish on 328 for eight. Australian off-spinner Chris Green took four for 104.
