England Test captain Ben Stokes was dismissed for just 14 as he continued his return for Durham in their Division Two clash at Worcestershire.

Stokes had taken two wickets on the opening day in his first outing since the Ashes, but saw hopes of making a solid innings with the bat come up short as he was out for 14 from 17 balls, edging 20-year-old Jack Home to second slip.

Yorkshire, at 110-4 overnight, swiftly collapsed to 152 all out. Olly Hannon-Dalby finished with four wickets - including skipper Jonny Bairstow for a run-a-ball 25 - and Jordan Thompson taking three in a blistering 4.2 over spell.

Warwickshire ended the day at 267-3, after half-centuries from Rob Yates (81) and Dan Mousley (70).

Jimmy Anderson took four wickets for Lancashire against Middlesex at Old Trafford, finishing with 4-67 in 16 overs as the visitors were dismissed for 169. Lancashire finished the day on 45-3, leading by 77 runs, with all three wickets taken by Ryan Higgins.

Defending champions Nottinghamshire posted 415 in their first innings against Surrey at Trent Bridge. Centurion Joe Clarke could not add to his overnight 129 as he was caught behind before Surrey eventually got the last two wickets, with veteran seamer Dan Worrall finishing on 6-73.

Surrey went on to reach 211-4 in reply after half-centuries for Dom Sibley (77) and Dan Lawrence (52 not out).

At Chelmsford, Simon Harmer produced an unbeaten 80 to add late runs for Essex, who reached 273 all out against Hampshire. Nick Gubbins (35 not out) helped the visitors to 58-2, a lead of 20.
