🏏 Hampshire Cricket 2018

Listening to the game via Radio Solent sat in the garden at 20-00 oor close enough and its still 30 deg

Rum and coke to keep me company.

143-7 at Lunch still 68 runs behind Amla 52 and Abbott 22

Radio Solent has gone to Eastleigh and MAcclesfield for Lunch Eastleigh losing 0-1

Abbott goes for 23 middle stump removed

Wheal appears to have gone by LBW

147-9

Amla goes for 55 Hants 147 all out.

Surrey second innings starting soon and we need some quick wickets.

Surrey 20-1

Surrey are presently 233-4 a lead of 297 runs nearly time they gave us a run chase.

We could win this if we lose no wickets

A draw counts as a win to me at this stage.

Vince and Amla in both below 10 runs we need these two to stay in for a good session.

116/4 at close, 356 runs still needed

Hants 174 -6 in the second innings

Northeast and Abbott are in

Is that the Bishop of Durham?

Hants 212 -7 at Lunch 260 still required to win or 2 sessions to play for the draw.

Probaility of Sussex getting the 3 wickets required is about the same as Saints gettting relegated.

Tasty little ninth-wicket stand going on here - 64 runs so far. It’s 309/8 at tea, with Northeast on 117 and Wheal on 6 (off 44 deliveries). Yes, the chances of us surviving another 34 overs after tea is remote to put it mildly, but at least we’ve put up a bit of a fight.
