Milestone
So, that is it from myself, Karthik Raj, my co-commentator, Nikhil and our scorer for this game, Ghanendra. Do stay tuned for more such matches including the fourth day of the Edgbaston Test between England and India. Until then, it is a warm good-bye from us!
End of a comfortable five-wicket win in the end for Hampshire despite a mini middle-order collapse! Chasing 181 for victory, Hampshire got off to a tremendous start with the opening pair of Ben McDermott and Jams Vince stitching 86 runs for the opening partnership. It was only the Sussex skipper Ravi Bopara who finally managed to break the partnership by dismissing McDermott in the ninth over. The wicket didn't seem to curb the run-flow as young Tom Prest taking on Rashid Khan with a couple of lusty blows.

At the other end, James Vince was also looking in pristine touch as Sussex didn't have any clue despite various changes in bowling. It had to be a soft dismissal to break the partnership and James Vince did just that by miscuing a full delivery from Delray Rawlins to be caught by the keeper. In the very next over, Rashid Khan trapped Prest in front as Hampshire started to stumble slightly. Sussex continued to make inroads as Toby Albert and Joe Weatherley departed in consecutive overs to make the match interesting. 

The chase was poised nicely with Hampshire requiring 37 runs required off 21 balls. However, the pair of James Fuller and Ross Whiteley finished the job calmly with some clean hitting as Hampshire secured their win with five balls to spare!
19.1 W Beer to J Fuller
4 FOUR!!! Fuller has heaved this for a boundary towards mid-wicket and the visitors have won this to keep up the momentum going into the knock-off. This was Fuller and in the middle as Fuller has slogged this towards the mid-wicket region for a boundary to conclude the game.
With 4 runs needed of the penultimate over Visitors are just one hit away now...
