County Championship Division One

Durban-born Gareth Roderick hit 94 off 168 deliveries (11 fours, one six) for Worcestershire in their 235-run loss to Hampshire.

Lancashire captain Keaton Jennings scored 56 off 68 balls (nine fours), leading his side to a massive 168-run victory over Somerset.

Former SA U19 batting all-rounder Colin Ackermann continued his fine form with another huge contribution, scoring 78* off 125 deliveries (10 fours) in Durham’s first innings, before hitting 40 off 94 balls (four fours) in their second. But his effort was not enough to avoid defeat, with Surrey claiming a 10-wicket victory.

County Championship Division Two

Former Proteas batsmen Colin Ingram scored 82 off 117 balls (13 fours) in Glamorgan’s 186-run defeat to Yorkshire.

Caribbean Premier League

Quinton de Kock scored 59 off 38 balls (three fours, four sixes) for the Barbados Royals in their nine-wicket win over the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots. De Kock maintains his position as the top-scorer in the competition, taking his total to 391 runs.
