Surrey is on the verge of securing a third consecutive County Championship title after a decisive 10-wicket victory over Durham at The Oval. Dan Worrall and Sam Curran were instrumental, each taking four wickets as Durham was dismissed for 177 in their second innings, with only Emilio Gay providing notable resistance. Rory Burns and Dom Sibley quickly achieved the 25-run target, marking Surrey's eighth win of the season. Surrey's championship hopes now rest on the outcome of Somerset's match at Old Trafford, where Somerset needs 189 more runs with four wickets remaining to stay in the title race. Meanwhile, Sussex earned promotion to Division One after thrashing Gloucestershire. Surrey's final match is against Essex at Chelmsford, while Somerset will host Hampshire.
