Northamptonshire fell agonisingly short of victory against Glamorgan at the County Ground in LV County Championship Division Two.

Glamorgan were battling to avoid an innings defeat for much of the final day, and they achieved their aim but with little to spare.

The Dragons were all out for 238 second time around leaving Northamptonshire needing 38 for victory but they could only reach 28 for three by stumps, with Alex Wharf claiming all the wickets.

The anticipated draw between Warwickshire and Derbyshire materialised at Edgbaston.

The home side reached 241 for four in their second innings, with Darren Maddy making 138, before their declaration signalled the end of the match.
