Rob Yates’ first century of the season boosted Warwickshire’s Rothesay County Championship title credentials, as Hampshire suffered another chastening day.
Opening batter Yates produced a passive and sensible innings to underpin a great Warwickshire batting performance – with Sam Hain scoring 90 and 21-year-old Kai Smith firing out a half-century.
Kyle Abbott celebrated his 50th wicket of the season – the first player in Division One to the landmark this season – but his four for 51 was a rare high point for Hampshire.
The relegation-threatened county lost six wickets to trail by 328 at the end of day two – with Indian spinner Manav Suthar and fast bowler Olly Hannon-Dalby both picking up two wickets each.
