Harmison, who picked up four for 28 in the first innings of a match dominated by the ball, added devastating figures of five for 46 in the visitors' second knock, which subsided for 135 to spell a 138-run defeat.

Leaders Nottinghamshire are looking to close out victory against Hampshire on the final day after fine centuries from Ali Brown (148) and Chris Read (116) put them in a commanding position.

They declared on 380 for six before Darren Pattinson removed opener Jimmy Adams late on to leave the home side on nine for one at the close.

That means an unlikely last-day chase of 403 or, more realistically, a fight to hold on to their last nine wickets.

At New Road, new Sussex signing Piyush Chawla continued his fine debut with a thrilling 102 not out to heap the pressure on Worcestershire.

That helped give Sussex a 342-run lead and it only got worse for Worcestershire as they stumbled to stumps on 120 for three.

Both Yorkshire and Somerset are in the hunt at Headingley, with the hosts needing nine wickets to win, while the away team require 208 runs.

In Division Two, hosts Derbyshire are relying on a big knock from Wavell Hinds (42no) if they are to overturn Glamorgan after closing on 142 for six and needing further 132 to complete the win.

At Northamptonshire's County Ground, Surrey look set for victory after taking seven of the hosts second innings wickets for 189 with Northamptonshire needing 132 more to make Surrey bat again.
