- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR40.6 caught down the leg side! Gloucestershire's other set opener departs, flicking at Mahmood. Both the bowler and Phil Salt were convinced - and so too Richard Illingworth, which is the main thing 131/237.4 lured into a prod outside off, and it's taken by the juggling second slip! Steven Croft seemed to need two goes at it, but he holds on - and Hasan has made the breakthrough 119/141.5 bowled him, Gloucs lose a third! James Bracey, with two hundreds to his name already this season, beaten by some nibble from Balderson, who clips the top of middle stump 133/357.1 Hasan gets another! A loose drive and an edge to the keeper! Tempter on a wide line and it brings about a fifth for Lancs, Hammond nicking off after a lengthy vigil 150/552.1 short and down the leg side, gloved to the keeper! Extra pace perhaps doing the trick there, although it didn't look like a wicket-taking ball when Mahmood let it go. van Buuren was looking to pull, but just got a tickle through to Salt 142/457.2 two in two! Hasan has detonated another! Full and straight from over the wicket, Lace beaten working around his front pad. Steve O'Shaughnessy didn't take long to make his decision there. First-baller for the Gloster No. 7 150/678.6 gives Parky the charge, and leaves Salt with a simple stumping! Not sure if it was a googly, but Gohar was beaten on the outside, looking to thump the leggie down the ground, and he was never regaining his ground 215/783.2 chopped on! Hasan gets his fourth... Shaw reaching away from his body to drive, and the leg bail is dislodged via an inside edge 238/885.5 five-for Hasan, snapped up a third slip! Second new ball, taken earlier in the over, does the trick - Warner propping forward and Lamb taking a low catch 240/987.6 spooned to backward point, Hasan finishes the innings with his sixth wicket.
