ThomasDraw confirmed at The Oval - Hampshire can count themselves very lucky IMO. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/cricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyCricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyCricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyChampionship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyChampionship</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SurreyvHampshire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SurreyvHampshire</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SURvHAM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SURvHAM</a>

ThomasOff for bad light at The Oval (it is sufficiently gloomy that the players now have the multiple shadows caused by floodlights as opposed to the single shadow caused by the sun). Hampshire are 299-5 and there are 10 overs scheduled. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/cricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyCricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyCricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyChampionship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyChampionship</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SurreyvHampshire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SurreyvHampshire</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SURvHAM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SURvHAM</a>

ThomasNew ball taken by Surrey. Wickets needed very quickly. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/cricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyCricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyCricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyChampionship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyChampionship</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SurreyvHampshire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SurreyvHampshire</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SURvHAM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SURvHAM</a>

ThomasTea on day four. Hampshire are 216-4. This partnership between Gubbins and Albert may well have saved them. The new ball is due in two overs time, and represents Surrey's last serious chance of forcing an opening. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/cricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyCricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyCricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyCHampionship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyCHampionship</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SurreyvHampshire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SurreyvHampshire</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SURvHAM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SURvHAM</a>

ThomasLunch on day four. Hampshire are 121-4, needing 256 more to win. Surrey need six more wickets. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/cricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyCricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyCricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyCHampionship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyCHampionship</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SurreyvHampshire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SurreyvHampshire</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SURvHAM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SURvHAM</a>

ThomasUnder way at the Oval. The first two sessions should be clear, but there may be bad weather in the third. If Hampshire escape with a draw they can count themselves incredibly lucky - after last night's stupidity with night watchers they deserve nothing from this match. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/cricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyCricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyCricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyChampionship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyChampionship</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SurreyvHampshire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SurreyvHampshire</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SURvHAM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SURvHAM</a>

ThomasStumps on day three at The Oval, the last match to finish for the day. Hampshire are 35-3 chasing 377 to win. They made a very questionable decision to send Brad Wheal in as a night watcher with 13 overs still scheduled (of which we got nine), and then a downright stupid one to use Sonny Baker as a second when Wheal was out. In the end Gubbins who they had been so desperate to protect saw it through in company with Middleton. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/cricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyCricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyCricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyChampionship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyChampionship</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SurreyvHampshire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SurreyvHampshire</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SURvHAM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SURvHAM</a>

ThomasBaker goes first ball and it is 30-3 with Clark on a hat trick, and Hampshire's obsession with protecting their regular number three has put them right in the mire. Sending Wheal in when they did was dubious given how many overs there were still to be bowled, sending Baker in as a second night watcher was just plain crazy. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/cricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyCricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyCricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyChampionship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyChampionship</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SurreyvHampshire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SurreyvHampshire</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SURvHAM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SURvHAM</a>

ThomasBrad Wheal goes bowled by Clark for 9 (28). Had he been sent in at a sensible time to deploy a night watcher it would have been a fine effort, but as it is Hampshire are 30-2, still needing 347 to win. Sonny Baker has been a sent in a second night watch which will mean Abbott batting at number 11. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/cricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyCricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyCricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyChampionship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyChampionship</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SurreyvHampshire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SurreyvHampshire</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SURvHAM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SURvHAM</a>

ThomasThe light is now too poor for seamers, so Surrey have turned to the very occasional off spin of Rory Burns, possessor of precisely two first class scalps in a very long career (the nearest other approaches to a spin option being Sibley or Pope bowling filthy "leg spin"). <a href="https://mas.to/tags/cricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyCricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyCricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyChampionship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyChampionship</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SurreyvHampshire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SurreyvHampshire</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SURvHAM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SURvHAM</a>

ThomasSurrey have their first wicket, Roach pinning Surrey reject Stoneman LBW for 3 to make it 16-1. Hampshire need 361 more runs to win, Surrey nine wickets. Wheal has been sent in as nightwatch with 13 overs due to be sent down unless the weather intervenes. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/cricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyCricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyCricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyChampionship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyChampionship</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SurreyvHampshire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SurreyvHampshire</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SURvHAM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SURvHAM</a>

ThomasDeclaration, Surrey 342-9, a lead of 376. Burns wants to get stuck into Hampshire this evening because the forecast for London tomorrow suggests there may be weather interruptions tomorrow. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/cricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyCricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyCricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyChampionship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyChampionship</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SurreyvHampshire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SurreyvHampshire</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SURvHAM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SURvHAM</a>

ThomasFive-for for Baker and he is on a hat trick. Surrey 338-9, 372 ahead overall.

ThomasFourth wicket of the innings for the youngster Baker.

ThomasTwo strikes in one over for Baker, the first a little lucky (neither he nor keeper Brown were exactly convinced of what they were appealing for) the second a fine bit of bowling to get Clark.

ThomasDouble landmark for Sibley. He has completed his second ton of the match, the first Surrey player to do so since Kumar Sangakkara in 2017, and he has also ensured that even if he is dismissed forthwith his overall FC average will stay above 40. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/cricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyCricket" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyCricket</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/CountyChampionship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CountyChampionship</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SurreyvHampshire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SurreyvHampshire</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SURvHAM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SURvHAM</a>
