The early thrill for the Taunton crowd of Craig Overton completing his maiden first-class hundred subsided into a long Hampshire rearguard action as they saved a draw with some comfort
Craig Overton ended the day three runs short of a maiden Championship hundred and hoping that Somerrset would not declare overnight with a 196-run lead at Taunton
Tom Abell gave a reminder of his immense promise as Somerset responded positively to Hampshire's first innings score of 338 on the second day of the Specsavers County Championship match at Taunton
