County Championship: Hampshire's Lewis McManus frustrates Surrey with first ton

<div class="sp-story-body__introduction" style="text-align: justify;">
                           <img alt="Lewis McManus" class="" src="http://ichef.bbci.co.uk/onesport/cps/480/cpsprodpb/3467/production/_90451431_mcmanus.jpg" /></div>
<div class="sp-story-body__introduction" style="text-align: justify;">
Lewis McManus hit a maiden Championship hundred as Hampshire held up Surrey's push for victory at the Ageas Bowl.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Hampshire, who resumed 564 runs behind on 73-2, still trail by 239 after ending day three on 398-9.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Wicketkeeper
 McManus (117 not out) reached his century off 171 balls and has so far 
put on 71 in 27.4 overs with last man Brad Wheal.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Adam Wheater (59) and Sean Ervine (52) hit fifties for bottom club Hampshire, while Surrey's Mark Footitt took 3-62.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Eighth-placed Surrey were unable to call upon Zafar Ansari in the field because of a back injury.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The visitors <a href="http://www.bbc.com/sport/cricket/36821561">posted a mammoth 637-7 declared</a> in their first innings and were boosted by two early breakthroughs as they set about bowling out fellow strugglers Hampshire.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Dominic
 Sibley trapped Ryan McLaren (31) lbw with the first ball of day three, 
before Tom Alsop (32) was caught at first slip by Jason Roy off the same
 bowler two overs later.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sizeable partnerships for the fifth and 
eighth wickets stunted their progress, but they looked well-placed to 
enforce the follow-on just after tea.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
However, Wheal accompanied 
21-year-old McManus to three figures and spent 100 minutes at the crease
 for his nine not out off 67 balls.</div>

<div class="sp-story-body__introduction" style="text-align: justify;">
Somerset opener Marcus Trescothick hit a superb 218 before Nottinghamshire fought back at Trent Bridge.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Notts leg-spinner Imran Tahir led the recovery with 7-112 as Somerset were all out for 437 - a lead of 36.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Resuming
 on 244-3, South Africa international Tahir claimed six of the seven 
Somerset wickets to fall on a scorching day - including Trescothick, who
 added 101 to his overnight 117.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Notts lost Steven Mullaney and Michael Lumb early, before closing on 58-2.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Trescothick,
 who equalled Somerset's record for the most first-class centuries with 
his 49th on Monday, was in wonderful form once again despite stifling 
temperatures.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The 40-year-old brought up his double century off 
323 balls with a trademark cover drive off Samit Patel - his 31st 
boundary - before he was the last man to go, chipping Tahir to cover.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Somerset
 looked set for a much bigger lead as Trescothick and Jim Allenby's 
hundred partnership took them to 379-4 and within 22 of the hosts.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But
 once Allenby was bowled by Patel for 63, Tahir tore through the rest of
 the batting order as Somerset lost their last five wickets for 37.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The
 procession of afternoon wickets continued in Nottinghamshire's second 
innings as Craig Overton pinned first-innings centurion Mullaney lbw and
 Allenby bowled Lumb without scoring in the next over.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Jake Libby and Brendan Taylor batted out the final hour to give Notts a lead of 22 at stumps. </div>
