County Championship leaders Nottinghamshire held to a draw by Yorkshire
Yorkshire's first innings had stretched until lunch on day four thanks in part to an unbeaten 93 from Matthew Revis, helped by an earlier 224 by Finlay Bean, as they were all out for 510 thus setting an insurmountable challenge for the leaders to overcome to take the win. Ben Slater hit an unbeaten 74 for the hosts, the sixth consecutive innings in which he had passed 50, as they reached 148 for one before declaring.
