WORCESTERSHIRE have managed to etch out a draw in their final LV County Championship Division One match against champions Durham.
Resuming the final day on 41-1, still trailing by 237 runs, the New Road outfit batted out the day against a side who had spent much of the week celebrating back-to-back titles.
Steve Davies hit a fluent 97, while Gareth Andrew struck his second half-century of the match and Richard Jones scored a career-best 53 not out as they closed on 410-7, a lead of 132 runs.
