That's 284 runs and counting for Smith in his past two innings.

Bailey b Bashir (Lancs 314-8 v Derbys)
Shoaib Bashir has a fourth wicket (4-69) and is ripping through this Lancs lower order.
Tom Bailey looks accusingly at the wicket but he has no answer to a dart that just snakes its way past his outside edge and turns back.
100 for Calvin Harrisonpublished at 17:18 BST 10 April
Kent v Northants 378-1
Image source, ShutterstockA third century of the day to applaud in Canterbury and this time, it's Calvin Harrison raising his bat.
He clips Matt Milnes fine for four to move to a second first-class career ton.
It has only taken 123 balls and as BBC Radio Northampton reliably informs listeners, it is only the second time that Northants' top three have all scored centuries in the same innings.

Surrey 356-4 v Leics
Well, the new ball isn't having an immediate impact. At least not for Leicestershire.
Ben Foakes punches down the ground for four off Ian Holland and, if anything, it flies even quicker off the bat with that solid new piece of leather.

Will this make a difference?
350 up for Surreypublished at 17:15 BST 10 April
Surrey 351-4 v Leics
Ben Foakes clips wonderfully off his pads from Tom Scriven and that races over the boundary through the leg side.
A third batting point in the bag for Surrey, Foakes onto 32, Jamie Smith 145 not out at the other end and a 58-run partnership already for this fifth wicket.
It's all going rather well for the hosts.
Haynes gets Notts out of sticky situationpublished at 17:14 BST 10 April
Notts 279 all out v Glamorgan 17-2
Dave Bracegirdle
BBC Radio Nottingham commentatorMuch of last season’s title success was built around Nottinghamshire’s ability to prise their way out fo sticky situations and Jack Haynes 10th career hundred is a case in point.
From 103-6, the champions appeared to be spiralling towards a sub-par total but aided by a bludgeoning half-century from Fergus O’Neill and a punchy 25 from Brett Hutton, Notts have put a challenging total on the board.
Haynes continues to blossom – my one to watch in the pre-season BBC preview - so extra pleased for this burgeoning talent to call his fifth hundred for the county.

Notts 279 v Glamorgan 17-2
Second boundary for Zain ul Hassan and second of the game for Glamorgan - and in identical fashion to the first.
Ul Hassan clips off his legs from Brett Hutton for four before picking up three more from the following ball.

Surrey 346-4 v Leics
Proper village cricket stuff here. Gotta laugh.
Ajaz Patel bowls an awful pie-chucker no-ball that Ben Foakes swats away to the cover boundary.
It's pea-rolling towards Tom Scriven on the rope and he somehow let's it roll under him - and we mean literally roll at a snail's pace.
Five runs from the ball and a wry smile for all involved.
WICKETpublished at 17:11 BST 10 April
Hartley b Bashir 17 (Lancs 307-7 v Derbys)
And Shoaib Bashir has a third...
Fellow spinner Tom Hartley effectively yorks himself here allowing the ball to squeeze under his bat and hit the stumps.
And Derbys once again haul themselves back into this contest when it looked like it was slipping from their grasp.
WICKETpublished at 17:09 BST 10 April
Hurst c Montgomery b Dal 32 (Lancs 306-6 v Derbys)
Two batting points for Lancs and Tom Hartley and Matty Hurst have not hung around getting them to it.
But once again Derbys have checked momentum with Matt Montgomery taking the chance at slip off the bowling of Anuj Dal.

Notts 279 v Glamorgan 10-2
A first boundary of the innings for Glamorgan as Zain ul Hassan gets Dillon Pennington away for four behind square leg, clipping away off his legs.

Chris from Dorset again. Let me be clear I am NOT advocating dropping Bethel and as a Bears fan I well remember his 154. I am just saying 12 into 11 doesn't go so what are the options if Jamie Smith keeps scoring hundreds?
Chris, Dorset
By crikey, I hear of a lesser spotted batting point for Hampshire. Rare, those.

Play resumes in Bristolpublished at 17:05 BST 10 April
Glos v Durham 358-2
A brief stoppage in Bristol and no overs lost, either.
The resumption sees Durham pass 350 and collect a third batting point. The remaining two will surely arrive before stumps tonight.
WICKETpublished at 17:04 BST 10 April
Woakes b Crocombe 64 (Sussex v Warwickshire 256-7)
Neither set batter gets from 50 to 100 in the evening session as the light darkens at Hove.
Henry Crocombe with his second wicket as Chris Woakes get caught on the crease, he did not get forward to that enough to smother the seam of the Dukes ball.
The Bears did just reach their first batting bonus point though, so you can say Chris Woakes still more than did his job coming in at number eight and bailing his team out of trouble.
Michael Booth in at 10.

Surrey 334-4 v Leics
Ben Foakes is onto 20 for Surrey as he punishes a half-volley from Ajaz Patel and it goes through the field and away for four, before picking up a single.
Another expensive over with 10 from it.

Notts 279 v Glamorgan 4-2
Both openers went early doors for Notts and the same has happened here for Glamorgan.
Will they be able to recover in similar fashion?
WICKETpublished at 17:02 BST 10 April
Abell c Pepper b Snater 29 (Essex 347 v Somerset 73-4)
Curse of the text commentator?
Tom Abell does not need to play at that, a decent delivery in the channel from Shane Snater, Abell nibbles and an easy catch behind.
Lewis Goldsworthy scored a century the last time Somerset played here in September remember, that is a big reason as to why he is picked ahead of Archie Vaughan for this second of two matches this season.
He is in at six, under a small amount of pressure having been the only Somerset batter to not reach 40 in either innings last match.
HAMPSHIRE ALL OUT FOR 251published at 17:01 BST 10 April
Lehmann c Bess b Hill 76 (Yorks v Hants 251 all out)
Jake Lehmann holes out on the midwicket boundary, Dom Bess taking the catch with his heels almost on the rope, to give George Hill 5-46.
Bess tosses the ball to a fielder close by, almost by instinct fearing he was about to topple over the rope, but he kept his footing and that is his catch.
Lehmann gets a decent round of applause as Hill raised the ball aloft on his way off the pitch.
The Hants batsman has ensured the visitors have at least a batting point with his 76 in 92 balls.
And while their 251 looks short of a competitive total you never know.
We will be back in 10 to see what Kyle Abbott, for one, makes of that.

Byrom c Patterson-White b O'Neill 1 (Notts 279 v Glamorgan 4-2)
Oh dear. Perhaps it is a bowling track?
Eddie Byrom dangles at a fairly tame attempted back foot drive outside off-stump from Fergus O'Neill and it finds the outside edge.
It goes through to Liam Patterson-White in the slips and he takes a regulation catch.
Glamorgan are in a spot of bother at 4-2 already.
