County Championship D1, Lord's (day three, close): Middlesex 370 & 74-0; Surrey 568
On another perfect day at Lord's seemingly made for batting, Mark Ramprakash achieved a rare distinction.
The former England batsmen's century gave him a full house of tons scored against county teams.
Ramprakash used to play for Middlesex, so switching to Surrey allowed him to add them to his list of victims.
Surrey stretched their overnight 274-3 to 568 all out.
Everyone got into double figures except the not out Jimmy Ormond and Ramprakash's 110 was followed by Alec Stewart's 87 and Saqlain Mushtaq's 69.
Middlesex had to face 19 overs before stumps and Surrey tried five different bowlers in a vain attempt to dislodge Andy Strauss (42) and Sven Koenig (29).
Middlesex: A J Strauss (Capt), S G Koenig, O A Shah, B L Hutton, E C Joyce, Abdul Razzaq, P N Weekes, D C Nash (Wkt), S J Cook, A A Noffke, C B Keegan.
Surrey: A J Hollioake(Capt), I J Ward , M A Butcher, M R Ramprakash, G P Thorpe, A J Stewart (Wkt), , M P Bicknell, A J Tudor, I D K Salisbury, Saqlain Mushtaq, J Ormond.
