Dawson (2) is OUT, clean-bowled by Notts’ Gurney - Hampshire 24/3. Can Ervine forge a partnership with Smith (6*)?

Fifty partnership! Ervine (31*) Smith (26*) going nicely for Hampshire, extending their lead over Notts to 161 runs. 80/3 now. Keep it up!

Wheater (1) is caught at mid-on, attempting to pull the ball and scooping to Mullaney, b Luke Fletcher. Hampshire lead by 196, 115/6 now

152-6 off 53, a lead of 233

What do we think will be enough? Low scoring match so far

Would be nice to get them in for a few overs tonight, but the leads not big enough for a declaration

Smith gone. Lead 246

Think about 280

And now Best. 8 down

Look on the bright side - two wickets in an over from the spinner - and Crane had good figures in the first innings

Tomorrow’s going to be exciting

189-8 at close, a lead of 270

Have a feeling we may go for 20 more before declaring, subject to the weather, but we probably have enough already. Good work boys.
