BBC Wales' Nick Webb at Grace Road: "Former Glamorgan batsman Mark Cosgrove helped his new side Leicestershire to bat out a draw after they had been set a target of 306 in a minimum of 50 overs to beat the Welsh county.
"The home side slumped to 1-2, but Cosgrove's stubborn knock of 59 not out helped Leicestershire finish on 141-3.
"Earlier Chris Cooke's fluent innings of 81 had allowed Glamorgan the luxury of declaring on 227-7 early in the afternoon session after Mark Wallace became the club's first specialist wicketkeeper to pass 10,000 runs in first class cricket."

Walmsley signed for the club in 2013 and has gone on to make 62 appearances, including in last season's Grand Final win over Wigan.
"I had offers from the NRL which I naturally had to think about," said Walmsley. "There is obviously a pull there as it is a prestigious league but credit to Keiron [Cunningham] - he made it clear he wanted to keep me and in the end that was the deciding factor.
"When the club made it very clear how much they wanted to keep me on board then it made the decision easier."
Draw on cards in Northampton

BBC Radio Gloucestershire's Bob Hunt at Wantage Road: "Only one wicket fell in an afternoon session that never really fell short of turgid.
"Chris Dent only added 20 runs in two hours for Gloucestershire, who, despite batting fluently in the morning, became happy to accept the inevitable draw with Northants, as they reached the tea interval on 235-2, still trailing the hosts by 218.
"It was the spin of Rob Keogh that brought the only success as he trapped Gareth Roderick in front for 52, the wicketkeeper's second half century of the match, adding to his record-equalling six victims in Northants' first innings."
Leicestershire v Glamorgan heads for draw
Cricket
BBC Wales' Nick Webb at Grace Road: "Leicestershire reached tea on 34-2 after being set a demanding target of 306 in a minimum of 50 overs by Glamorgan.
"The Welsh county upped the run-rate after lunch with Chris Cooke reaching 81 and Craig Meschede belting a rapid 33 before Jacques Rudolph declared on 227-7.
"The Foxes made a nervous start as Dan Redfern and Ned Eckersley were back in the pavilion with only a single on the board, but Angus Robson and Mark Cosgrove survived to the interval to get the home side within sight of a draw after a match of fluctuating fortunes."
Middlesex battling to save the draw

BBC London 94.9's Kevin Hand: "Middlesex continue to battle to save the draw at tea on the final day - they are 235-5 but the momentum is very much with Nottinghamshire.
"Three wickets fell in the session, including the foundation of the innings Nick Compton (85), but captain Adam Voges remains unbeaten on 66 and, with Dawid Malan unable to bat, much now rests on him.
"The pitch continues to play well but the new ball is only eight overs old and remains a threat for the visitors."

Hernandez once had a $40m (£27m) contract with the New England Patriots.

In his closing arguments, Hernandez's lawyer acknowledged that the 23-year-old was there when Odin Lloyd was killed, but said it was two of Hernandez's friends who committed the murder.
Prosecutors said Hernandez planned the killing and then helped cover it up.
The conviction carries a sentence of life in prison without the possibility of parole.

"With the new ball due before lunch on day three, it's perfectly possible they could bowl West Indies out quite cheaply and have a healthy first-innings lead to build on. So I'd much rather be in the England dressing-room at the moment.
"However, that only tells half the story of a rather frustrating day for England that saw them squander some of the advantage gained on a dominant first day through tentative cricket."

BBC Radio Gloucestershire's Bob Hunt at Wantage Road: "It was almost the perfect morning for Gloucestershire as they set off in an unlikely pursuit of the 419 needed in the day to produce an historic victory, but the dismissal of Will Tavare for 66 close to lunch has dented their chances.
"Tavare and Chris Dent (65 not out) put on 137 for the first wicket before the former was bowled by Azharullah.
"Northants had bowled loosely up until then; but, as often happens, a change of ball meant a change of fortune and they will be hoping for further inroads early in the afternoon, with Gloucestershire still needing 310 from 56 overs."

BBC Radio Wales' Nick Webb at Grace Road:
"Glamorgan reached 155-5 at lunch on the final day, a lead of 233 runs over Leicestershire, with a draw looking the most likely result in their Championship opener.
"Mark Wallace reached his landmark of 10,000 first-class runs, the first Glamorgan specialist wicketkeeper to do so, but his dismissal for eight left Leicestershire in with a chance of forcing a run-chase.
"Chris Cooke rescued them as he reached 69 not out, dominating a half-century partnership with Graham Wagg, and Leicestershire's hopes of breaking their two-year barren stretch without a four-day win were not helped by losing paceman Atif Sheikh with shoulder trouble after bowling only seven deliveries."
The home side, promoted from Division Two last summer, were bowled out for 285 just before lunch, having been set a victory target of 378.
Pace bowler Ajmal Shahzad was the most successful bowler for the three-times champions, taking 3-63.

Chief F1 writer Andrew Benson profiles Britain's Will Stevens, the 23-year-old driver with the struggling Manor team, revived at the 11th hour ahead of the 2015 season from the ashes of Marussia, who collapsed three races before the end of last year.
Stevens is facing a steep learning curve in his debut season in F1 but managed to finish last weekend's Chinese Grand Prix.
Buffon has no plans to retire
Football
Juventus goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon says he has no immediate plans to retire and that it would be a waste to quit now when he feels he is still in top form.
ReutersCopyright: Reuters
The 37-year-old, speaking after Juventus beat Monaco 1-0 in the Champions League quarter-final first leg on Tuesday evening, said: "At the first sign of slipping, I would be the first to bow out.
"But why bid farewell to football if you are playing well? I think one should stop playing when you go onto the field and see that you are no longer the same person."

Martin, Reading: My 10th birthday party was a football party, at the same time as Reading drew away at Leicester in 2006 to promote us to the Premier League for the first time ever. Most of my friends were Reading fans and we all went crazy. Best birthday present ever.
The Tottenham forward last played for Spurs in their defeat at Manchester United in March, but has apparently been busy improving his ball skills out on the patio, making hay while the sun shines.
Lovely slow-mo action at the end.
Vaughan wants clarity on ECB role
Cricket
Former England captain Michael Vaughan says the England and Wales Cricket Board's (ECB) newly created director of cricket role "needs defining" before he can fully declare his interest in the position.

Vaughan and fellow ex-captains Andrew Strauss and Alec Stewart are the leading candidates for the new role, created as part of a restructure following the departure of managing director Paul Downton.
Vaughan says there is no need for the ECB to "panic" and rush into a selection, stressing instead the importance of choosing the right long-term strategy for English cricket.

Bradley Wiggins will attempt to add cycling's world hour record to his four Olympic gold medals and 2012 Tour de France title in London in June.
The 34-year-old will try to break Australian Rohan Dennis's mark of 52.491 km at the Olympic Velodrome on 7 June.
"The hour record is a holy grail for cyclists," said Wiggins, who finished his Team Sky career last weekend.
"It's been fought over tooth and nail by some of the greatest names in our sport for over a hundred years and it's time for me to have a crack at it."

'Starc will go to that next level'
Cricket

Former Australia captain Steve Waugh says pace bowler Mitchell Starc will have no trouble in carrying his excellent World Cup form into this summer's Ashes series against England.
Left-armer Starc was named the player of the World Cup but is yet to cement his place in the Australian Test side after 15 matches.
"We've got so many bowlers at our disposal that we're capable of winning every Test match because we can take 20 wickets," Waugh said. "I think Starc will go to that next level in Test cricket as well."
Juventus 1-0 Monaco
Football
APCopyright: AP
And in other French Champions League news, Monaco went down 1-0 away to Juventus in last night's other quarter-final first leg.
Arturo Vidal's penalty split the sides in Turin, although Monaco, who knocked Arsenal out of the last round, went close through Yannick Ferreira-Carrasco and Dimitar Berbatov.
Coach Leonardo Jardim wasn't happy though, claiming the result was a "big injustice" and the decisive spot-kick "inexistent".
'Pastore the best in the world'
Football
If the opinion of former Manchester United striker Eric Cantona is anything to go by, and I certainly wouldn't argue with him, Paris Saint-Germain's top man is Javier Pastore.

He's come under fire since his £37m move from Palermo in 2011 but this year seems to have finally turned the corner.
It'll be the third time these two teams have met in the Champions League this season, having already played home and away in the group stages.

Barcelona have the edge on points from those fixtures, having beaten PSG 3-1 in Spain before losing 3-2 in France.
As if you needed me to tell you, Lionel Messi will be the one to watch. He's been particularly brilliant over the past couple of months, and this season has already scored 45 goals in 44 games.
Oh and there's Neymar and Luis Suarez too. They're not bad.

Selby staged a superb comeback to beat Ronnie O'Sullivan 18-14 in the 2014 final and claim his first World Championship.
"It took a long while, months, for the fact that I'd done it to sink in. It is every snooker player's dream as they start out to become world champion and I did that."

Watford's promotion push
Football
In tonight's Championship action, Watford have the chance to go up into second if they can beat Nottingham Forest at the City Ground.
Defender Craig Cathcart (calf) has been passed fit to play for promotion-chasing Watford but striker Fernando Foresteri (knee) misses out along with Joel Ekstrand and Sean Murray.

Glamorgan and Leicestershire play out draw
Cricket
BBC Wales' Nick Webb at Grace Road: "Former Glamorgan batsman Mark Cosgrove helped his new side Leicestershire to bat out a draw after they had been set a target of 306 in a minimum of 50 overs to beat the Welsh county.
"The home side slumped to 1-2, but Cosgrove's stubborn knock of 59 not out helped Leicestershire finish on 141-3.
"Earlier Chris Cooke's fluent innings of 81 had allowed Glamorgan the luxury of declaring on 227-7 early in the afternoon session after Mark Wallace became the club's first specialist wicketkeeper to pass 10,000 runs in first class cricket."
Wakefield sign Widnes prop Kavanagh
Rugby League
Wakefield Trinity Wildcats have signed Widnes prop Ben Kavanagh on loan until the end of the season.
The 27-year-old, who started his career at Wigan, has made six appearances for the Vikings this season.

Van Gaal preparing for next season

"Already in January [we began thinking about the 2015/16 season] because we have to prepare our pre-season," he explained.
"We also think about the scouting of players, the scouting of our own players because we have a lot on loan and then we have to analyse their performances, so it's a lot of work. It's not only the present season but also what we have to decide for players next season."

"I tried to make a fight of it but it just didn't happen. I was too far back," said Doherty.
But Scotland's Graeme Dott is through to Saturday's main draw at the Crucible after beating China's Yu Delu 10-7.
"I don't care who I play," said Dott. "Ronnie O'Sullivan in the first game, why not? I've played three games and he's not played any.
"I don't think anyone is going to want to draw me. I'm not saying they will be intimidated but there will certainly be easier games than me."
Dengue fever affects Brazil clubs
Football
Brazilian teams are on alert because of a dengue fever outbreak that is affecting some of the country's top clubs.
Three players were diagnosed with the mosquito-borne disease this week, while clubs have been supplying insect repellent during training.
Cases of dengue fever have increased significantly across Brazil this year, with most of them reported in Sao Paulo state.
Corinthians midfielder Renato Augusto said some of the club's players have been training with pants and long sleeves to try to avoid the mosquitoes.
Brazil's health ministry said there have been more than 460,000 cases of the disease in the country in 2015, while more than 130 people have died this year already.
Walmsley to stay with Saints
Rugby League
St Helens prop forward Alex Walmsley has agreed a new three-and-a-half year contract at the club after getting offers from the NRL.
Walmsley signed for the club in 2013 and has gone on to make 62 appearances, including in last season's Grand Final win over Wigan.
"I had offers from the NRL which I naturally had to think about," said Walmsley. "There is obviously a pull there as it is a prestigious league but credit to Keiron [Cunningham] - he made it clear he wanted to keep me and in the end that was the deciding factor.
"When the club made it very clear how much they wanted to keep me on board then it made the decision easier."
Draw on cards in Northampton
Cricket
BBC Radio Gloucestershire's Bob Hunt at Wantage Road: "Only one wicket fell in an afternoon session that never really fell short of turgid.
"Chris Dent only added 20 runs in two hours for Gloucestershire, who, despite batting fluently in the morning, became happy to accept the inevitable draw with Northants, as they reached the tea interval on 235-2, still trailing the hosts by 218.
"It was the spin of Rob Keogh that brought the only success as he trapped Gareth Roderick in front for 52, the wicketkeeper's second half century of the match, adding to his record-equalling six victims in Northants' first innings."
Leicestershire v Glamorgan heads for draw
Cricket
BBC Wales' Nick Webb at Grace Road: "Leicestershire reached tea on 34-2 after being set a demanding target of 306 in a minimum of 50 overs by Glamorgan.
"The Welsh county upped the run-rate after lunch with Chris Cooke reaching 81 and Craig Meschede belting a rapid 33 before Jacques Rudolph declared on 227-7.
"The Foxes made a nervous start as Dan Redfern and Ned Eckersley were back in the pavilion with only a single on the board, but Angus Robson and Mark Cosgrove survived to the interval to get the home side within sight of a draw after a match of fluctuating fortunes."
Middlesex battling to save the draw
Cricket
BBC London 94.9's Kevin Hand: "Middlesex continue to battle to save the draw at tea on the final day - they are 235-5 but the momentum is very much with Nottinghamshire.
"Three wickets fell in the session, including the foundation of the innings Nick Compton (85), but captain Adam Voges remains unbeaten on 66 and, with Dawid Malan unable to bat, much now rests on him.
"The pitch continues to play well but the new ball is only eight overs old and remains a threat for the visitors."

Newcastle fans plan boycott
Football
Newcastle fans are planning to boycott Sunday's home match against Tottenham after it was revealed the club had more than £34m in their bank account at the end of the last financial year.
Newcastle recently announced a record annual profit of £18.7m for 2013-14, but many fans have criticised the ambition of owner Mike Ashley.
"A lot of fans would ask why was a significant portion of that money not spent on team strengthening," said Newcastle fanzine editor Mark Jensen.
"The idea of a boycott has been building for a long time and you can't blame the fans. The frustrating thing for them is the money is there but the club won't spend it."

Cricket
Jonathan Agnew
BBC Test Match Special
"England are still in a strong position after day two of the first Test against the West Indies. After reaching 399 in their first innings, they reduced the hosts to 155-4 in reply.
"With the new ball due before lunch on day three, it's perfectly possible they could bowl West Indies out quite cheaply and have a healthy first-innings lead to build on. So I'd much rather be in the England dressing-room at the moment.
"However, that only tells half the story of a rather frustrating day for England that saw them squander some of the advantage gained on a dominant first day through tentative cricket."

Concerns over Jamieson form
Swimming
Nick Hope
BBC Olympic sports reporter
Adam Peaty may have produced the shock result by claiming 200m breaststroke gold at the British Championships on Tuesday night, but it's the dismal form of Olympic silver medallist Michael Jamieson which most in the swimming world are discussing today.
Athens bronze medallist and BBC 5 Live pundit Steve Parry tells me he thinks the swimmer needs to be "less self critical" if he is to return to the British team, let alone get back to the top of the sport.

Cornelius Lysaght
BBC horse racing correspondent
Trainer Philip Hobbs says Balthazar King, the Grand National runner who took a heavy fall at the Canal Turn during Saturday's Aintree feature, is making "slow but steady progress" as he recovers from his injuries.
The field had to bypass the fence on the second circuit as the 11-year-old, who suffered broken ribs, was being treated.
Glos openers start well against Northants
Cricket
BBC Radio Gloucestershire's Bob Hunt at Wantage Road: "It was almost the perfect morning for Gloucestershire as they set off in an unlikely pursuit of the 419 needed in the day to produce an historic victory, but the dismissal of Will Tavare for 66 close to lunch has dented their chances.
"Tavare and Chris Dent (65 not out) put on 137 for the first wicket before the former was bowled by Azharullah.
"Northants had bowled loosely up until then; but, as often happens, a change of ball meant a change of fortune and they will be hoping for further inroads early in the afternoon, with Gloucestershire still needing 310 from 56 overs."
Nadal goes through in Monte Carlo

Cricket
BBC London 94.9's Kevin Hand: "Middlesex's only wicket to fall this morning came in the final over before lunch as the hosts gave themselves a great chance of saving the game against Nottinghamshire.
"Nick Gubbins was the man to go caught at short leg off Samit Patel but his partnership of 132 for the second wicket with Nick Compton (63*) has kept Notts at bay and laid the foundation for the middle order to bat the day out.
"A second new ball will be available in the afternoon but the pitch has played well today and showed little sign of the indifferent bounce glimpsed on the previous three days."
Wallace reaches Glamorgan landmark
Cricket
BBC Radio Wales' Nick Webb at Grace Road:
"Glamorgan reached 155-5 at lunch on the final day, a lead of 233 runs over Leicestershire, with a draw looking the most likely result in their Championship opener.
"Mark Wallace reached his landmark of 10,000 first-class runs, the first Glamorgan specialist wicketkeeper to do so, but his dismissal for eight left Leicestershire in with a chance of forcing a run-chase.
"Chris Cooke rescued them as he reached 69 not out, dominating a half-century partnership with Graham Wagg, and Leicestershire's hopes of breaking their two-year barren stretch without a four-day win were not helped by losing paceman Atif Sheikh with shoulder trouble after bowling only seven deliveries."
Sussex wrap up victory over Hants
Cricket
Sussex have begun their County Championship campaign with a 92-run win over Hampshire at the Ageas Bowl.
The home side, promoted from Division Two last summer, were bowled out for 285 just before lunch, having been set a victory target of 378.

Today head of Mercedes motorsport Toto Wolff has had this to say: "We saw tensions between Nico and Lewis in the race and we tackled them directly on Sunday night to stop anything carrying over to this weekend.
"When you have intense competition, it's normal that it causes emotions to run high - and that's not something we want to change.
"China also confirmed that Ferrari will be a threat in all conditions this year, not just when it's very hot. We will have new challenges to face as a team, with another competitor who is much closer to our level of performance."

Mayweather - I'll fight just twice more

Earlier we heard from Ricky Hatton on how Amir Khan could beat Floyd Mayweather - in fact he said the American would "run a mile" from the Bolton-born fighter (see 11:10).
But now Mayweather says he will fight just once more after next month's clash with Manny Pacquiao, because he no longer enjoys the sport.
The unbeaten American's 2 May fight with Pacquiao is the fifth of a six-fight contract with broadcaster Showtime.

He added: "I don't enjoy it like I once did. My last fight is in September."

'Floyd would run a mile from Khan'

Former two-weight world champion Ricky Hatton believes British compatriot Amir Khan could be the man to dethrone Floyd Mayweather as boxing's pound-for-pound king.
Khan has been seeking a fight with Mayweather for almost two years, but the American WBC and WBA welterweight champion has spurned Khan's advances.
That's no surprise to Hatton, who believes Khan's blurring punches and rapid movement would hand Mayweather his first professional defeat.
"Amir is boxing with a lot more discipline lately, he's in and out and he's not getting involved. I think that type of style will cause Floyd massive problems. I think Floyd would run a mile.
"Amir's as big a name as is out there, he's beaten pretty much everyone, and Mayweather might be forced to fight him."
