Match scorecard

Daniel Hogg took his maiden wickets in first-class cricket as Durham edged towards victory in their County Championship clash with Nottinghamshire.

Durham had quickly picked up the last two Notts first-innings wickets as the visitors only added nine runs to their overnight total, leaving them with a first-innings deficit of 302.

The Notts opening pair of Ben Slater, who made his fourth fifty of the season, and Haseeb Hameed started well after Notts were asked to follow on.

But after Hameed was dismissed, the floodgates opened and debutant Hogg helped reduce the visitors to 99-4.

Matt Montgomery and Jack Haynes frustrated the hosts in the evening session, with the pair surviving 50.3 overs, but Durham got two late wickets with the new ball to leave Notts 212-6 at stumps, still trailing by 90.

Hogg was excellent throughout the day as he picked up the baton left by Neil Wagner, who was missing for the hosts due to a shoulder injury picked up in the field on day two.

Durham skipper Scott Borthwick entrusted the teenager with new-ball duties and the 19-year-old picked up four wickets across the day.

Hogg dismissed Brett Hutton to wrap up Notts’ first innings for 229 and has 3-40 in the second, picking up the wickets of Hameed, Joe Clarke and Montgomery.
