- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.6 top-edged straight up, Hammond has been put out of his misery! Slower delivery, Hammond aiming flat-footed slog, and it goes nowhere... Ben Foakes circling around towards short fine leg and pouches the catch. Topley strikes, and this has been an excellent start for Surrey 12/14.4 slogged straight up, simple catch at midwicket! Dent now falls, having looked the closest thing to fluent in this Gloucs batting effort... Top-edged on the sweep, Jason Roy got around to take it in two hands 24/33.3 flicked straight to midwicket! Cockbain was being touted as a match-winner for Gloucestershire but he's gone third ball! Jacks strikes, not for the first time this campaign - tossed up nicely and wristed straight to Rory Burns 12/29.1 sends a steepler to third man! Full and wide and Higgins has a hack at it, manages to top edge the ball down the throat of the man set back... Second wicket for Plunkett, Gloucestershire limping towards the finish 58/56.1 hoicked off a length, but long-on is settling under it! Plunkett gets amongst 'em first ball, maybe a cross-seamer, skidding on as Taylor swung hard across the line... went high but not far enough to clear the rope! Surrey keeping the boot down here 33/49.3 slaps this one to deep midwicket! Plunkett bites back, another hefty shovel across the line but this time Jacks is into position to swallow it out by the rope! 64/610.6 wide full toss, splunked straight to deep point! Filthy ball, filthy shot and that's the end of this Gloucestershire effort... Could have planted that anywhere on the off side, but sent a low mishit to Jamie Overton running in. And Surrey will run off happy with their work 73/7Extras5 (lb 2, w 3)TOTAL73/7 (11 Overs, RR: 6.63)Fall of wickets: 1-12 (Miles Hammond, 2.6 ov), 2-12 (Ian Cockbain, 3.3 ov), 3-24 (Chris Dent, 4.4 ov), 4-33 (Jack Taylor, 6.1 ov), 5-59 (Ryan Higgins, 9.1 ov), 6-65 (Benny Howell, 9.3 ov), 7-73 (Graeme van Buuren, 10.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.4 beaten for lack of pace, but that's a stunning take from Howell! Up and over the shoulder at deep midwicket as Roy launches through a straight drive, and gets right underneath his shot... it's the breakthrough Gloucestershire needed! 15/13.4 bowled him! It's a straight full toss, nothing much to write home about, except for its stump-splattering denouement! Jacks just didn't pick it up, heaved across the line, and this is an over which is just threatening to get Gloucestershire back in business. 28/25.6 outside off, and Howell has the breakthrough! It's due reward for an outstanding over, an apparent hint of width, and Evans climbed into it, but his shot flew straight to backward point, and while Surrey have the edge, they've got some work to do too! 41/39.3 edged and gone! Foakes opens the face, tries to run the winning four through third man, but he mis-picked the cutter, and that's Payne's third of the innings... it's probably too late, but it's been a valiant effort 70/4Extras4 (lb 3, w 1)TOTAL74/4 (9.4 Overs, RR: 7.65)Fall of wickets: 1-15 (Jason Roy, 1.4 ov), 2-28 (Will Jacks, 3.4 ov), 3-41 (Laurie Evans, 5.6 ov), 4-70 (Ben Foakes, 9.3 ov)
