Think that’s the second time we have made that mistake this season ? Winning the toss and electing to bat first because we don’t want to bat last on this wicket ! We need to concentrate on the first innings it might not get to the fourth innings ?

Very good last wicket partnership, something we've allowed a lot this season. 47 so far I think. Hope it doesn't come back to bite us

This looks like a result wicket, can't afford to lose

This is where we lost the game. 120-9 would mean we're chasing 230 now.

Big day for both sides at Southampton. Hope Yorkshire can get to a lead of 200 minimum.

Is it time test matches kicked off on Fridays so the weekend punters can see some cricket.

Depends on the test match, they're designed to get to 5 days with days 3 and 4 being the two key days ideally. Which is normally Saturday and Sunday.

Wednesday was a strange day to start I agree

Final day at Southampton. Hampshire need another 171 runs to beat Yorkshire. Yorkshire need 7 wickets.

Good start for us. Prest stupidly trying to hit sixes this early and is caught by Revis. 114-4.

Don't think I've ever seen a batsman take guard that far outside off stump as Albert has..

Only to Bess it seems... negating the LBW?

6 down.. TBH I didn't think we'd make 200. Long tail too, and we haven't had an innings built all season really.

No clue why Mayes didn't play...

Yes! Great catch by Cliff and Albert finally bodges a sweep. 153-6 and Yorkshire firm favorites now. Staunch effort from Albert there.
