    And Abbas gets Robson to complete the top and middle order clean sweep.

    And Abbott ruins Abbas's chances of getting all 10 by cleaning up Roland-Jones. 36/7.

    Middlesex are in serious danger of being bowled out for less than 50 never mind 100.

    I don't think there's any chance of Hants enforcing the follow on. Weather is good all weekend and Hants can just pile up a massive lead.

    Starting to get a bit concerned now, Hants haven't taken a wicket for 8 overs.

    Not sure I agree with that on a green, day 2 pitch. More likely the seamers will get wickets.

    Brendy reckons tailenders struggle to pick him.

    Could still have seam at the other end.

    Wheal mops up the tail nicely and Middlesex are bowled out for 79!

    Unsurprisingly Hants elect not to enforce follow on.

    Still some way to go yet, but a second consecutive thrashing could be on the cards here. And if so, that would be a sensational way to start the season.

    It's incredibly rare to see Abbott reduced to the junior partner. Such a mouth-watering prospect that we're seemingly no longer almost wholly reliant on him to carry our attack. Best opening attack in the country? It's certainly a candidate.

    Good thing is the two top order players who didn't score much in the one innings we had against Leicestershire, Northeast and Holland, have both hit 2 fifties in this match and have chances of centuries. So all the top 5 batsmen (maybe apart from Weatherley) can be considered in good form.

    I appreciate Hampshire are building a lead and taking time out of the match but how much time and how many runs do you think they’ll need?
