With promotion already secured last week, Durham required a maximum of five points to clinch top spot.
Northamptonshire – who will be relegated if either Middlesex or Kent win – put the pressure on as they reduced Surrey to 79 for six before a spirited response from Foakes and Overton, who made an unbeaten half-century, helped move them on to 158 when bad light and rain ended play early.
Surrey still trail by 199, but a draw still looks the most likely outcome heading into the final day’s play. At Chelmsford, Hampshire batter Tom Prest scored his maiden Championship century to frustrate title hopefuls Essex despite a five-wicket haul for Simon Harmer.Sadly the rain isn't letting up & the umpires have called stumps for the day.We come back tomorrow the the final day.Prest scored an unbeaten 102 to guide Hampshire past the follow-on score with vital contributions from openers Toby Albert , Fletcha Middleton , James Vince and Keith Barker .
South African Harmer claimed five for 143, but Hampshire ended the day on 322 for eight, now 125 runs adrift and with potential to set up a result on the final day. Somerset’s Tom Kohler-Cadmore celebrated his England call-up with a savage assault on Kent’s injury-hit bowling attack on day three at Taunton.
