    17/5! This Leicestershire innings is a case of "Blink and you'll miss it"!

    At least Abbott and Abbas can come in fresh again when they come back.

    The man just gets better with age, it is an masterclass of how to bat with the tail.

    I'm not familiar with the ground. Is it a short boundary, a-la Barker last week, or is he just absolutely creaming it?

    I've just started watching it on the stream and he's started mistiming the ball!

    Apparently he's been dropped on the boundary a couple of times but it looks like he's belting it all around the ground.

    If it was dry day throughout tomorrow, then 15 wickets might just have been possible. Especially with Chris Wright as high as no.8!

    But the forecast seems to almost be the worst of all four days.

    59 overs to take 15 wickets? (Including taking those first five for under 55 runs)

    I've resigned myself to the draw now so for me, get the other 2 bowling points and if we do bowl them out for less than 84 see what happens.

    Hampshire have reduced Leicestershire to 48/8, so the follow-on looks likely. Unless Leicestershire completely close up, and stonewall every ball, a Hampshire victory looks possible, but not yet probable. Especially as there is yet another rain delay, although conditions seem to be improving. A bit.

    Right, one more to enforce the follow on.

    Hants have forfeited their 2nd innings, Leics need 150 runs to win.
