On the final day of the County Championship, Surrey cruised to a nine-wicket win over Hampshire with 122 from Ollie Pope. Dom Sibley and Pope added 193 together in 30 overs to help Surrey home. Surrey needed 145 for victory after tea on the final day, but Pope accelerated superbly, striking three sixes, including an audacious tennis-style lap over fine leg. Hampshire’s second innings was a similar story of recovery, a dogged 84 from Nick Gubbins alongside handy contributions from Brown and Ian Holland setting up an exciting finish. But Pope’s class and Sibley’s cool head gave the champions their first win of the season.
