Nottinghamshire's lower order stood strong to deny Lancashire victory on a dramatic final day at Trent Bridge.

Lancashire declared on 329-8 at lunch, giving the hosts 67 overs to defend for a draw. Nottinghamshire looked to be heading for a third defeat in four when George Balderson took three wickets in 11 balls to have them six down but Joe Clarke (42) and seam bowler Brett Hutton blocked for 34 overs to offer a glimmer of a result.
They only lost two more wickets in the remaining 13 overs, the ninth with just four balls remaining, as Stuart Broad also saw out 50 balls and injured Olly Stone survived the last four deliveries to secure the draw.

Adam Lyth's mammoth 174 made sure Yorkshire held on for a draw with Glamorgan after Jonny Bairstow's promotion up the order backfired with a nine-ball duck.
Bairstow was making his senior return this week after eight months out injured when Lyth and Finlay Bean's 99-run opening stand was broken on the stroke of lunch.
Yorkshire's 492-run target was soon dismissed when the England batter edged to second slip off Timm van der Gugten.
Lyth was twice dropped on 48 and 69 and showed intent with his 138-run partnership with George Hill and in the end, Yorkshire were left reeling when they lost seven wickets in the final session. Jordan Thompson (55 not out) blocked out Michael Neser's final over to salvage a draw.
