Kent, Glamorgan and Essex enjoy Championship victories
Ralph Dellor - 18 May 2002

In Division One of the Frizzell County Championship, there was just an outside chance that Yorkshire, having been forced to play second fiddle to Kent throughout the match, might just have been able to conjure up a result against the run of play. That would have needed Richard Blakey to press on beyond his century, but he fell for 90 and Yorkshire could only add 23 to their overnight total. There were five wickets for Martin Saggers. Even so, set 168 to win, Kent lost six wickets in reaching their target.

Only 11 overs were possible at Old Trafford in the match between Lancashire and Sussex which was therefore consigned to a draw. It was the same story at Taunton where the players did not even manage to get on the field.

At Edgbaston, Hampshire batted out time for a draw. Neil Johnson was 74 not out at the close as Warwickshire's bowlers failed to break through to achieve the win that looked likely when Hampshire were forced to follow on.

In Division Two, Glamorgan completed a five-wicket win over Durham at Cardiff. Set 201 to win, captain Steve James led them home with 121 before his was fifth out when his side was just two runs short of their target.

John Stephenson, who only played for Essex because of injuries to other bowlers, took seven for 44 as Worcestershire were bowled out for 140 in their second innings. That left Essex 135 to win and, despite one or two scares along the way, they got home with five wickets in hand.
