County Championship: Ben Duckett hits unbeaten 197 for Nottinghamshire as Joe Root impresses for Yorkshire

Ben Duckett scored an unbeaten 197 to hold Nottinghamshire's batting together on day one against Warwickshire at Edgbaston.

Ben Duckett scored a brilliant 197 not out to hold Nottinghamshire's batting together on the opening day of their Vitality County Championship match against Warwickshire at Edgbaston. England batter Duckett struck 24 fours in his 230-ball innings as his side made erratic but highly entertaining progress to 367-8.

Holder took three wickets in 12 deliveries to reduce Somerset to 181-6, only for Banton to make 92 from 140 balls before being run out. Banton's knock, plus some late order big hitting by Migael Pretorius , enabled Somerset to recover and claim two batting points before declaring on 309-9. Jake Libby and Adam Finch safely negotiated five overs as Worcestershire closed on 14 without loss.
