Otherwise, it was a tale of steady accumulation by Dominic Sibley and the South African batsman Hashim Amla.

Sibley, 81 overnight, became the youngest centurion in Surrey’s history when he crawled to the landmark 10 minutes before lunch, eclipsing the record of Jack Crawford, who was 18 years and 257 days when he scored 119 not out against Derbyshire at Derby in 1905.

At lunch, Sibley has 108 and Amla 40.
