to eight made their way past 15, and an innings including half-centuries from James Adams, Jono McLean, Simon Katich and Dimitri Mascarenhas, saw them to a total of 350. Australia leg spinner Shane Warne hit three sixes in a 17-minute 24, while Glamorgan captain Robert Croft snared five wickets, but was also the second most expensive bowler by economy rate of the six used, conceding 103 runs in 25.4 overs. The returning Shane Warne, fresh from taking 40 wickets in the 2005 Ashes series, took four for 50 in Glamorgan's innings, as Glamorgan faltered from 151 for 4 to 249 all out, and the third day's play ended with Simon Katich and Sean Ervine plundering runs in return. An opening stand of 117 was achieved quickly, and Warne then hit two sixes in a nine-ball 15, as Hampshire added 218 for 7 in 32 overs before declaring. Croft completed another five-wicket-haul, but still conceded 57 in ten overs (admittedly with an economy rate lower than the other bowlers). Set 320 to win, Glamorgan attempted the chase, hitting 44 in the first 40 minutes, and Croft led from the front with a well-paced 90. Once he was caught behind off Ervine, however, Glamorgan needed 94 for the last three wickets, and the lower order succumbed to the Zimbabwean Ervine. Wicket-keeper and number eight Mark Wallace was left not out on 33, as Glamorgan posted a total of 244, while Ervine finished with five for 60 in the second innings, his best bowling figures of the season thus far.
