Northamptonshire are defeated by Leicestershire by 132 runs on a difficult day with the bat.
Leading by 113 on first innings, Leicestershire, resumed on the third morning on 96 for six in their second and their lower order knuckled down diligently to bat until the brink of lunch.
Ian Holland’s 113 minutes’ resistance for 11 ended when he nicked an outswinger from Conway but Logan van Beek (27, 84 balls) and Ben Green (32, 56) also batted for more than 100 minutes.
Even after van Beek fell lbw to Justin Broad, the last two wickets added 37 as Tom Scriven and Hull offered Green support.
Scriven edged Conway to second slip before Green (32, 56 balls) ladled Sanderson to deep mid-wicket to supply the big-hearted bowler’s sixth wicket.
Northamptonshire’s quest for 289 was then reduced to 31 for three after Hull hit the stumps three times in his first 23 balls. The left-armer outlined his credentials to add to his single Test appearance so far with a superb spell of swinging, pitched up, fast bowling which emphatically vindicated the old adage, “if they miss, you hit.”
He clipped a leg stump left exposed by Ricardo Vasconcelos, beat a half-forward Luke Procter for pace to find off stump and rattled middle and leg through James Sales’ attempted on-side flick.
Rob Keogh perished carelessly when he chipped a leg-stump offering from Holland to mid-wicket. George Bartlett (37, 82) applied himself well until tea but fell to the third ball after the interval.
A heavy shower during tea invigorated the pitch and three wickets fell in the first ten balls after the break as Bartlett was lbw to van Beek and Saif Zaib and Broad edged away-swingers from Green to wicketkeeper Ben Cox.
Lewis McManus and Calvin Harrison defied the oppressive bowling and the appalling din from an adjacent pub to add 37 in 76 balls before both fell in three balls to Scriven.
Harrison edged behind and McManus fell lbw to leave last pair Sanderson and Conway with a day and 19.2 overs to survive. Sanderson, who passed 1,000 first class runs earlier in the match, made inroads into his second thousand with a merry 32 before Rehan Ahmed bowled him to round off another resounding Leicestershire win
