Rahul Chahar’s Ten-Wicket Debut Seals Surrey’s 20-Run Win at Hampshire

Hampshire now rely on Yorkshire beating Durham to stay in Division One.

Overview

  • Chahar returned 8 for 51 in 24 overs in Hampshire’s second innings to finish with match figures of 10 for 118.
  • Wisden reports his 8/51 are Surrey’s third-best innings figures this century and earned him his first ten-wicket haul in first-class cricket.
  • News18 reports he became the first player to take eight wickets in an innings on a Surrey debut, surpassing William Mudie’s 7/61 from 1859.
  • The leg-spinner dismissed fellow India international Washington Sundar in both innings after Sundar made 56 in Hampshire’s first-innings lead.
  • Surrey had already fallen out of title contention after Nottinghamshire’s bonus points, and the result now leaves Hampshire’s survival dependent on Yorkshire’s result against Durham at Headingley.
