Superb work from the glove man.
Jeetan Patel tosses it up to Ollie Robinson, who misses an attempted flick to leg.
The ball loops to the right, bounces on the popping crease and Tim Ambrose dives like a gazelle and flicks the ball on to the stumps.
Great knock from Ollie Robinson - and a career best.
There's the declaration and that's a monster total.

Durham 224 v Sussex 73-7
Image source, Getty ImagesBeen a bit of a sorry tale for Sussex's batsmen this afternoon and a few, as just mentioned, have had their furniture rearranged by Chris Rushworth.
Michael Burgess gave this photographer a great image for his portfolio if not one that he'll want to add to his own scrapbook.
The same fate then came David Wiese's way soon after...

Jack Leaning still unbeaten on 31 at the other end.
Durham 224 v Sussex 71-1
More problems for Sussex as Durham's bowlers keep on top of the game.

Shot!

Four more to Tom Abell from a pull shot off Jake Ball at the other end takes the visitors past 200.
Somerset in control.
Surrey 395 v Essex 38-2
Image source, Rex FeaturesEssex and Dan Lawrence facing a going-over on two fronts at The Oval it seems.
One from the four-pronged home pace attack and another from the flock of pigeons creeping across the square as ever.
Lawrence settling in to his innings in testing circumstances as well as having to keep the local wildlife at bay.
Warwks v Kent 487-8
Finally some reward this afternoon for Jeetan Patel, who tosses one up to Matt Milnes...
he miscues a sweep and top edges a catch to Will Rhodes at first slip.
Adam Riley to bat next.

Notts 263 v Somerset 179-3 - trail by 84
Just three runs off two Samit Patel overs and a couple of leg byes off Jake Ball since the break.
Steady start for Somerset on a pitch which may be slowing up a bit here.
Warwks v Kent 487-7
Image source, Getty ImagesTrial by spin first up at Edgbaston and Jeetan Patel teases Robinson with width outside off stump.
The batsman isn't interested. Maiden over.
Craig Miles finds the edge but it's well wide of the keeper and first slip.
A streaky four runs. Robinson picks up a couple more to move to 129.
Surrey 395 v Essex 28-2

Notts 263 v Somerset 174-3
Image source, Getty ImagesThe umpires are making their way to the middle for what may well be a pivotal session of play.
Just 89 runs between the sides at the moment and early wickets are a must for the hosts.
Samit Patel, it's over to you.
Yorkshire 413-5 v Hampshire
Another tough session may be in store for Hampshire, with Tom Kohler-Cadmore and Jack Leaning settling in to a promising partnership before lunch.
Both have been circumspect so far - only three boundaries between the two right-handers so far - but have the ability to push the scoring along at a healthy rate if they survive the early overs after lunch.
Middx 265 v Lancs 88-0
The visitors had a great session this morning but will take nothing for granted against a quality bowling attack as Haseeb Hameed and Keaton Jennings look to build on a promising partnership... all under the watchful eyes of Ed Smith.
Steven Finn to bowl.
Warwks v Kent 475-7
It's already been a record-breaking innings for Ollie Robinson.
His 123 not out is both his highest first class score by a distance (previous best 26) and also his maiden first class ton.
He returns to the middle with Matt Milnes, who has 28.
Image source, Getty Imagesfrom BBC Radio Kent's Ben Watts: “Prior to this innings, Ollie Robinson’s first-class best was just 26.
He scored buckets of runs in the second XI last season, including a double-hundred against Middlesex, and spent the winter playing club cricket in Sydney for Campbelltown-Camden in the New South Wales Premier division.
With regular gloveman and captain Sam Billings away at the Indian Premier League, the 20-year-old is demonstrating much maturity at the crease in this knock. He hit three boundaries in an over off Craig Miles to move to 98, before edging to third man to bring up three figures.”
Surrey 395 v Essex 21-2
Surrey have an opportunity to seize control of the game after lunch, with Tom Westley and Dan Lawrence new at the crease together, and Championship debutant Rishi Patel due to come in next.
Morne Morkel and Tom Curran shared the new ball before the interval, and the reigning champions have Liam Plunkett 'waiting in the wings' and eager to make an impact with the ball after his duck during the morning session.
Glamorgan 570-8 dec v Northamptonshire
