    Incredibly unlucky to only get one wicket in that mini-session. On another day, Lancs finish the day four down.

    Need to hope that bad luck doesn't continue tomorrow morning, because once the ball gets older Lancs have an aggressive enough batting line-up to really cash in.

    What a gift! Short, wide and slashed to 1st slip! Woeful shot from Croft.

    Hants have bowled brilliantly this morning (and yesterday to be fair). They've nailed their line and lengths and are finding the edges.

    Dropped! First thing Hants have done wrong in the field.

    I really hope Fuller can carry on bowling like this because his batting ability down the order can be priceless, like yesterday.

    Weatherley's 2 drops are proving very costly.

    Really need to clean up the last 2 quickly. Salt could be really dangerous here.

    Rubbing Salt into Weatherley's wounds.

    As much as I would have taken this at the start of the day, it's bitterly disappointing we're not getting a first innings lead of 50+. Joe takes one of those catches and we surely bowl them out for less than 200.

    Lancashire finally dismissed, and Hampshire are ahead. By 6 runs. Hampshire openers being cautious, but Weatherley decides that he'd rather have a long rest, so he's out for 0. Hampshire 0 for 1. Now we've got the idea, we're nearly in double figures. Nearly.

    Only got ourselves to blame if we do go on and lose this (not that I'm saying we will).

    Don't drop those catches and we probably have a 100 run lead. And in this match, that's a huge lead.
