Scorecard

Four wickets from Jordan Clark helped Surrey keep Hampshire in check before rain and bad light brought play to an early conclusion at the Ageas Bowl.

Hampshire closed on 229-7, failing to capitalise on a solid start at 104-2.

Clark’s 4-59 was ably supported by two wickets from Rikki Clarke (2-71) and miserly spells from fellow seamers Jamie Overton (1-38) and Ryan Patel.

Ian Holland had battled to 58 at the top of the order while Colin de Grandhomme will resume unbeaten on 48.

Both sides came into this penultimate round of the Championship’s first phase just outside the top two places in Group Two.

Hampshire are a point behind second-placed Gloucestershire while Surrey, in fourth, are seven points further back.

Honours appear pretty much…
