That is the most ridiculous dismissal I have ever seen! 
Abell hit the ball into the ground and then panicked and somehow failed to kick the ball away and it rolled into off stump and knocked a bail to the ground.

Here it is if you want a laugh (from a Hants POV), @ChilcoSaint will not be as amused.

Right, first part done OK. Now can we get through an hour's batting (15 overs) without losing too many wickets?
Let's hope it's not a case of allowing Somerset back in the game, being 50-3 or 50-4 or something like that with Overton running amok.

So Lancs fall 1 wicket short of 3 bowling points and Essex fall 2 runs short of 3 batting points!
Not panicking just yet. We're only 94 behind and we bat deep. Somerset were 6 down at this stage.
That Gubbins dismissal looks a horrid decision. Looks like his bat hit his pad.
One way or the other the game is going to move forward at pace tomorrow. We need one of Donald, Barker or Fuller to counter attack like Overton did. Brown's job tomorrow morning is to stay there while those 3 be the aggressors. We need a lead of at least 40 I would say.
