Sean Ervine hit 93 runs as Hampshire set a 472-run target, before Durham were reduced to 79-2
Hampshire all-rounder Sean Ervine hit 93 with the bat as Hampshire posted an impressive 472-9 before declaring, then Durham were restricted to 79-2 on the second day of their Specsavers County Championship match at Chester-le-Street.
Ervine (93) and Gareth Berg (56) made an excellent 95-run partnership to enhance the progress made by Will Smith (67) and Jimmy Adams (86) on the opening day, then Ryan McLaren took 2-33 to put further pressure on the Durham batsmen.
Berg had an excellent day two, bowling three maiden overs to open his account with the ball and giving away just one run from his six overs - an inspired spell - after registering fifty with the bat.
Hampshire lost three wickets as they progressed proficiently with the bat from their overnight 319-6, beginning with Lewis McManus (5), who mistimed a pull of Graham Onions to be caught at mid-wicket by academy boy Alasdair Appleby, on as a substitute for Chris Rushworth.
Ervine and Berg then put on 95 in 22 overs, with Berg becoming the dominant partner as he raced to 56 off 74 balls, before lofting Jennings to long-on. Berg had gone to his 50 by following a six over extra cover off Ryan Pringle with a back-foot four to the same area off the next ball.
With the declaration looming after lunch, Gareth Andrew drove a straight six off Borthwick and Ervine was accelerating towards his century. On 72, he pulled Paul Coughlin for six and had sped to 93 when he attempted a scoop off the same bowler and was bowled.
When Hampshire declared on 472-9, Durham were dealt a difficult chase with the conditions making it an increasingly testing batting wicket.
In the sixth over, McLaren found a breakthrough as Durham skipper Mark Stoneman offered no stroke and lost his off bail. Scott Borthwick then fell for five when he tried too late to withdraw his bat and edged into his stumps, as McLaren compounded the home side's misery.
It passed quickly enough for play to continue, but the thickening cloud made batting more tricky, prompting Keaton Jennings (36*) to drop anchor. He had raced to 20 off 16 balls, then added only three in facing a further 40 before bad light prompted tea to be taken an over early.
Berg conceded one run in six overs, but on the resumption following heavy rain in the interval Jennings and Jack Burnham added 22 in six overs before the rain returned.
Durham are 79-2 and will begin day three trailing Hampshire by 393 runs after another day of domination for the away side.
