I think this may end in a draw.
Oh really? To be honest we should get the maximum batting points needed (400 runs, 5 pts??) then declare and bowl them out in quick order for another 3 bonus points.
Mind you saying that it’s only the runs in 110 overs, so they’d have to score 130+ runs in 14 overs…
At which point I mention we are prepping for a big bank holiday bbq here in Poland 
10 more runs needed for 4 bonus points
351/7d, 108.4 overs
last 10 overs 80/2
they certainly put the foot down a bit
Hampshire declare after fourth batting point
Hampshire 351-7 (108.4 overs) v Essex
Looks like Essex are going to try and get as many batting points as possible, minimum of 57 overs left today…
