Jake Ball finished with four wickets, and Toby Pettman three, as Northamptonshire were bowled out for 297 on day three at Lady Bay, 185 short of Nottinghamshire’s first innings 482/9d. 

A fourth-wicket partnership worth 158 between Saif Zaib and Aadi Sharma - the latter of whom finished on 104 - threatened to nullify the hosts’ first inning lead.

But the former’s demise - caught by Calvin Harrison off the bowling of Farhan Ahmed - with the visitors on 202 cued a collapse of sorts, with the final six wickets falling for 95 runs.
