Surrey v Essex, Kent v Worcestershire, and more: county cricket, day two – live

Day two of several County Championship cricket matches is underway, including Surrey v Essex at The Oval and Kent v Worcestershire. Surrey drew notable attention for their crowd engagement efforts, reportedly attracting over 5,000 spectators to The Oval for their championship match the previous day. Discussion is ongoing about whether Surrey lead other counties in innovative promotional schemes, such as work-from-home desk setups at the ground.
