Graham Clark's long stay at the crease has finally come to an end - after around six and a half hours.

He came in yesterday at 13:54 BST and has just fallen for 160, the victim of a brilliant piece of reactionary fielding from bowler Liam Dawson. Clark thought he'd driven Dawson towards the boundary but the bowler dived into the air to snatch the ball one-handed as it was passing over his head.

It's the batsman's highest score. When he came in Durham were 82-4. When he left the field they were 453-8.

He put on partnerships of 124 for the fifth wicket with Ollie Robinson and 163 for the sixth with George Drissell. That was a record sixth wicket stand for Durham against Hampshire.

If nothing else, they appear to be in a position where they can't lose, but taking 20 wickets on a track as flat as this one may take some doing. And it's a used track as well!
