Brown - already with two one-day double-centuries to his name, including a record 268 - hit 20 fours and eight sixes as Surrey ran up the highest score in a 'list A' limited-overs match.

James Benning, who put on 296 for the first wicket with Brown, hit an equally impressive 152 as Surrey comfortably overtook Sri Lanka's 443 for nine against Holland last year.

Rikki Clarke added a rapid 82 from 28 balls, including six sixes, as the Brown Caps left Gloucestershire facing a mountainous task at The Oval.

Richard Montgomerie hit a magnificent 125 as Sussex set Somerset a target of 288 at Taunton.

Montgomerie's knock came off 161 balls, while Murray Goodwin offered able assistance with 88.

Ravi Bopara was run out for just 10 on his first appearance since the World Cup as Essex recorded 210 for seven against Hampshire at Chelmsford.

Alastair Cook set them on their way with a breezy 37, but Ronnie Irani, Mark Pettini and Alex Tudor were all dismissed after amassing just 11 between them. James Foster hit an unbeaten 69 to give Essex some hope of recording victory.

Ed Joyce could only manage 16 on his World Cup return as Middlesex set Glamorgan a target of 263 at Lord's.

Meanwhile, Kent recorded 231 for seven against Ireland in Belfast in the hosts' first game since their World Cup heroics. Joe Denly hit an unbeaten 102.
