    Fine by me. I don't care if it's April, July or September. You don't choose to bowl first at the RB, if you have any sense.

    Gareth Berg is such an important player for us. Not a star name, but boy does me make valuable contributions with both bat and ball.

    Come on Hants, another wicket before the close would be good.

    Even day, I'd say. Which in turn arguably means we leave the happier, because if you choose to bowl first (as Worcs did) then you should really be winning the first day.

    I'd say 60/40 in Hampshire's favour, given the conditions and Worcestershire's batting line up. That last wicket stand of 48 could prove very important.

    Excellent first hour for Hants. Worcs 78/5.

    149/7. They’re letting them back into it. Need to clean up these last few wickets.

    Possibility of tomorrow being washed out, so we may need to make the rest of the day really count.

    Annoying if we can't get a decent amount of cricket in tomorrow, because we're certainly in the driving seat right now.

    Hmmm. Isn't going to make any difference right now if tomorrow gets washed out. We're heading for a result.

    I think if you offered me a 250 lead, I'd take it.

    Thank God for Abbott and Berg, Wheal has chipped in well too.

    Not only has this morning been great in terms of adding to our lead, but we've also been bowled out at a brilliant time. A nice 20 minute session to have a go at them before lunch, and then again after. Abbott could end up bowling 10+ overs in a row here.
