Big hearted Australian quick bowler Harry Conway claimed four wickets for 38, including three in one over, on a dramatic third day of Northamptonshire’s opening County Championship match against Lancashire at Wantage Road.

Bowling aggressively and finding plenty of bounce and movement, Conway’s initial burst either side of lunch helped reduce to Lancashire to 18 for four and while Luke Wells made 40, no top-order batter looked comfortable. Leg-spinner Calvin Harrison also claimed 4 for 55 from his 26.4 overs.
