I think I am the only one in the press centre at Headingley who believes Durham can still lose this one.

Alex Lees has just been caught behind off Dom Bess for 18 and Durham are now 29-2 and still trail Yorkshire by 100.

They can't just occupy time in the middle. They need to be scoring runs too and wiping out that deficit. This is not a foregone conclusion by any means.

Hampshire are not down yet!

Residents say the plan for the 6.5ft fence is "overkill" but the council says it will be positive.

News of Hampshire's demise against Surrey couldn't have come at a better time for the players here in Leeds.

It happened just as Durham were about to begin their second innings, 129 runs behind Yorkshire, after bowling them out for 475.

Jordan Thompson was the last man to go, on his final appearance for Yorkshire, caught off the bowling of Ben Raine, by Alex Lees, at long off, for 50.

Raine, who scored a century in the Durham first innings, then took 5-76 with the ball. If only Durham had a few more like him! He's given it his all to keep them up.

All they need to do now is bat the day out to stay up. Surely they can't mess this golden opportunity up! Can they?

I expect the cricketing equivalent of Coventry City v Bristol City in 1977 next. Ask yer dad!

As for The Yorkies, they are now safe.
