In all the first & second innings of Hampshire's two matches with the experimental balls, 31 wickets (75%) fell in the first 35 overs and 10 (25%) in the next 45 overs from that point up to 80 (new ball available). I didn't track after with that new ball as not always clear if it was taken immediately but it seems clear what was happening - on the other hand, spinners were more effective (Liam Dawson 16 wkts in three innings etc.)
