Rain-hit Durham settle for a draw

BEN Brown reached his third-highest Rothesay County Championship score as Hampshire and Durham's clash inevitably ended in a draw.

Brown ended up on 162, three shy of his first-class best, as Matthew Potts and Codi Yusuf shared seven wickets to bowl Hampshire out with a deficit of 41.

Alex Lees and Emilio Gay put on 61 around frequent rain breaks before hands were shaken on the assured result at 3.50pm - only 20 wickets having fallen across four days.

Hampshire remain unbeaten, and move up to fifth having taken 12 points from the fixture, while Durham are three points ahead of them in the table, with 13 points received from the draw and bonus points.
