Gloucestershire 237 all out & 149-3, Derbyshire 278 all out

Gloucestershire lead by 108 runs with 7 wickets remaining. Hammond 46no, Bracey 3no.

Part-time spinner Ollie Price took a career-best six for 45 as Derbyshire collapsed from a strong position at 204-2 to 278 all out as this Rothesay County Championship fixture hangs in the balance.

Derbyshire had resumed overnight on 162-2 with Matt Montgomery in decent nick and put on 43 with nightwatchman Jack Morley but Gloucestershire fought back with three wickets in six overs. Montgomery was first to fall before Wayne Madsen and Martin Andersson quickly lost their wickets to Price.
