Lancashire 325 & 48-3 drew with Yorkshire 243

Lancashire 11 pts, Yorkshire 9 pts

Yorkshire and Lancashire had to settle for a draw after rain led to the match being abandoned on the fourth morning.

In a contest continually disrupted by weather, umpires Ian Gould and Peter Willey made the decision at 11:15 BST.

Lancashire, who held a first-innings lead of 82, were 48-3 overnight, and the result means both sides have now drawn three of their six games so far.

Meanwhile, Tykes seamer Ryan Sidebottom will have a scan on the hamstring injury he sustained bowling on day two.

"We're hoping he'll only miss one game, it's certainly not a long-term injury," said Yorkshire first-team coach Jason Gillespie.
