Yep, two massive wickets just before lunch.

Don't know whether the run out was anyone's fault but perhaps it was on Brown's mind when he got out.

Yes, huge. Could believe my eyes when I checked the score one last time before lunch. Need to knock these last two over quickly. We have all followed Hants for long enough to know it won't be plain sailing once they get in!

If the chase is around 150 you would think that if they failed to run it down the season would be unrecoverable, hammer blow and such like.

Still lets be positive, and hope for a Hants victory some time after tea.............aaaaargh!!

1 to go. 123/9 effectively.

[haggishants]

126 to win.

Need a wicket please.

One wicket could bring all 4. Sussex will target 300 to give them at least a slender target to defend, but Need probably 350-400 to realistically put Hampshire under pressure

Thankfully you were right, Sussex.

And Durham going well against Somerset who are on 78/5. A win for Hants should get them up to 6th in CC1.

Our tail without Jordan or Shehzad is three batters long, so you always thought breaking the partnership could lead to a quick assault. Well done to Hampshire for the win, it might make the difference in the relegation battle at the end of the season

Carberry in scratching mode.

[budgetmeansbudget]

What a strange innings that was, openers motoring along towards the target then in comes Carberry, slows everything down and then gets out.

Still doesn't really matter much.

A double hat-trick and this is on now

Durham have just beaten Somerset. So we just need those 31 runs now.....

[budgetmeansbudget]

We doubted Terry 's selection for this game but he has done okay.

[haggishants]

Well done Hampshire. Onwards and upwards.

Well done Hampshire, Benks will be pleased!
