Robert Croft continued his prolific run of form, only to see his efforts foiled by Durham skipper Jon Lewis at Chester-le-Street.

Both teams went into the match with only one defeat in the Norwich Union League second division.

But, in a low-scoring game, early leaders Durham stayed ahead of their visitors as they edged home by two wickets with nine balls to spare.

Lewis finished unbeaten on 46 in a match in which Croft, with 67, was the only other batsman to pass 30.

Croft batted at number three and rescued Glamorgan from 15 for four.

He transformed the game as he went for his shots and put on 93 in 19 overs for the fifth wicket with Michael Powell before wickets tumbled again and Glamorgan were all out for 145 in 40.2 overs.

Durham got off to an equally sticky start as they slipped to 10 for three.

Then, as they threatened a recovery, Croft nipped in with two for 27 in nine overs.

Croft's England one-day team-mate Paul Collingwood took three for 21 then blasted three sixes in a cameo innings of 25.

But he was caught on the square leg boundary attempting a fourth and, as Durham stumbled to 98 for seven.

Lewis though came to his side's rescue to sheperd the tail to the victory target with nine balls to spare.
