Hands shaken on a hard fought draw. Surrey end the match on 447-4 in their second innings, an overall lead of 231, Dan Lawrence 161 not out, Ben Foakes 36 not out. Surrey had a horror start on day one, bowled poorly (by their own admission) in the Warwickshire innings, but fought back from both setbacks and have earned the draw.

Tea on day four. Surrey are 390-4, 174 ahead overall. Jamie Smith scored 132, Dan Lawrence is 130 not out 11, and Ben Foakes is 11 not out.

350 up for Surrey and with it a new record for a fourth wicket for Surrey against Warwickshire - 202*, beating the 199 put together by Hayward and Goatley in 1906.

Smith and Lawrence moving Surrey ever closer to a draw. Warwickshire have had the better of this match but Surrey have provided ample demonstration of their resilience, recovering from 65-6 in the first innings to post 328, and now batting like this in response to a 216 run first innings deficit.

lunch on day four, and Surrey have made it through the morning without losing a wicket. They go into lunch on 274-3, a lead of 58 overall, with Jamie Smith 84 not out and Dan Lawrence 78 not out.

Lunch on day three (slightly late due to a brief rain interruption). Warwickshire are 435-4, 107 ahead of Surrey so far.

Mousley looking like continuing where he left off yesterday. Warwickshire can probably allow themselves two full sessions plus the first hour of the evening to pile on the runs, looking to leave Surrey with a day plus half a session to survive to avoid defeat.

Warwickshire have bowled Surrey out on day one, but a Surrey total of 328 is bad news for them given that a) they won the toss and opted to bowl and b) Surrey were 65-6 at one point before Ben Foakes (128) led a recovery aided by Tom Lawes and Sean Abbott.

Batting bonus point for Surrey, which did not look likely at 65-6. They are now 250-7 with Ben Foakes 87 not out and Sean Abbott 14 not out.

The great partnership between Lawes and Foakes ends with Lawes going for 83, caught by Mousley off Gilchrist. Foakes is into the 70s, and the seventh wicket stand yielded 155, turning a dire 65-6 into a semi-respectable 220-7.

Tea in #Birmingham. Surrey are 198-6, having at one point been 65-6. Tom Lawes has 78 not out, the highest score of his career to date (he is mainly a bowler, and a very good one too) and Ben Foakes (wicket keeping all rounder) has 55 not out.

Good fightback from Surrey after a disastrous start. They were 61-4 at lunch, lost two wickets almost immediately after the interval to be 65-6 at low water mark but Tom Lawes (67 not out) and Ben Foakes (44 not out) have taken the score to 176-6 with tea not long distant.
