Although this is not a pitch on which to be chasing anything substantial, Hampshire are giving themselves a chance of coming out of this game with a win, assuming that it is not going to end in a draw. They have had much the better of the third morning with Warwickshire six down at lunch with only Ian Bell left of the recognised batsmen. Warwickshire’s lead stands at 167. Gareth Berg has been the pick of the bowlers with three wickets, although the best ball of the morning was the one that ended the session, leaving Alex Thomson looking bemused as Kyle Abbott brought one back to knock back his off stump. Only one over so far from Mason Crane, who might not get much of a chance to demonstrate why he has been named in the Ashes squad.
