Another world wicket-keeping record for Jack Russell, a triple hundred from Mike Hussey, and a win for Glamorgan inside two days were amongst the features of an action-packed day in the Frizzell County Championship. There were also victories for Warwickshire, Yorkshire and Hampshire in the First Division.

Ashley Giles appropriately claimed the final wicket as Kent were duly dispatched by Warwickshire in less than half an hour at Edgbaston. The visitors resumed on 304 for nine, still nine runs adrift. David Masters (68) and Martin Saggers (5*) at least had the satisfaction of making the hosts bat again before Masters was caught at gully. Giles finished with seven for 142 and match figures of 12 for 216. Michael Powell then hit two of three balls he faced for four to complete Warwickshire's win.

Hampshire completed a four-wicket victory over Somerset to deepen the Cidermen's relegation worries. Although Andrew Caddick dismissed Will Kendall and Robin Smith this morning, Dimitri Mascarenhas held his nerve either side of lunch, making an unbeaten 27 to see the hosts to the brink of victory, which was clinched by a single from Adrian Aymes.

What had promised to be a competitive final day in the Roses Match turned out to be a melancholy procession of Lancashire batsmen at Old Trafford, as bottom-of-the-table Yorkshire emphatically won their first match of the season. England off-spinner Richard Dawson took five for 42 as Lancashire, set 299 to win yesterday, made just 148. Veteran Neil Fairbrother (38) was the only batsman to get beyond 16. When he became Steve Kirby's second victim it was effectively over. Yorkshire won by a tidy 150 to deepen Lancashire's relegation fears.

Jack Russell broke another world wicket-keeping record at Bristol as Mike Hussey racked up an unbeaten 310 in Northants' mammoth 746 for nine declared. Russell did not concede a bye in the entire Northants innings, breaking the first-class record set by S Reuben Paul, the Tamil Nadu keeper who kept a clean sheet throughout the Karnataka innings of 716 at Bhadravati in 1995-96. Hussey's triple hundred was the second of the season (Graeme Hick made 315* against Durham in June), and included two sixes and 38 fours. He added a massive 318 for the sixth wicket with Graeme Swann, who made a career-best 183 (three sixes, 24 fours). At stumps Gloucestershire had reached 172 for four in their second innings, still 152 behind.

Glamorgan took just two days to complete a whirlwind win over Durham at Chester-le-Street. Michael Kasprowicz was again the hero, making an unbeaten 26 to extend the visitors' first-innings lead to 109, and then adding five top wickets as Durham collapsed from 77 without loss to 114 all out. Robert Croft (four for 20) also featured, as Kasprowicz finished with match figures of 11 for 105.
