Hampshire v Kent - Liverpool Victoria County Championship - The Rose Bowl
Day 4 -1st Session
The final day gets underway with Hampshire needing to bat out the day or score a decent amount of runs to avoid defeat. They manage to add just 23 runs before the fall of the first wicket of the day.
Soon after its probably all over for Hampshire as Thornely is bowled out for 46, He'd been looking in good form and this is a massive wicket for Kent. Once again its Ferley who strikes. Key's plan of tempting him into a straight drive by removing the fielder worked to perfection.
Ferley might be getting the wickets but its Stevens who has looked the best of the Kent bowlers, how he has remained wicketless so far is a mystery. Although Kent are one step closer to solving the mystery when Burrows survives an edge. O'Brien makes a good effort but cant get to the ball. The two slip fielders however, looked like cardboard cutouts and didn't move an inch.
Burrows lives to survive the early setback and at lunch Hampshire are 123/5.

Hampshire v Kent - Liverpool Victoria County Championship - The Rose Bowl
Day 4 - 2nd Session
Stevens continues to trouble the batsman after the break, particularly Burrows but lady luck is just not shining on him. Key decides to rest Stevens but stick with medium pace at one end so he throws the ball to Matt Walker. Immediatley there is a breakthrough and Burrows is out with Walker's first ball.
Shane Warne walks to the crease and has an immediate impact, running out Stokes for 40 in Walker's second over.
The introduction of Walker proves to have been a master stroke as Tremlett edges one to Fulton in the slips.
Stevens comes back for his second spell and finally his hard work pays off as he clean bowls Bruce. Hampshire are now 170/9.
Hampshire will go into the final session of the match with 1 wicket remaining and a lead of 10 runs.

Hampshire v Kent - Liverpool Victoria County Championship - The Rose Bowl
Day 4 - 3rd Session
Warne and Taylor refuse to go down without a fight and the pair add 36 runs before Joseph takes the final wicket for Kent.
Hampshire are all out for 209. Kent require 47 runs and have just over an hour to make them.
Walker and Fulton walk out to bat and will be looking to make the required total without losing a wicket to make up for their poor performances of late.
They get halfway before Fulton is bowled, he was trying to push the score along but goes for a shot that was never on.
Tremlett strikes again and both openers are out.
It's three for Tremlett as van Jaarsveld edges to Burrows.
Kent are making a bit of a mess of such a low target and its up to Hall and Key to see them across the finish line. Hall grabbing the winning run with a sweep shot, Kent win with just 5 mins to spare.

Nice bowling by the Irish boys. Should be a comfortable win for Kent, though.
