Sibley ton aids Bears fightback against Northants

LV=County Championship Division One, The County Ground, Northampton Warwickshire 396-8:Warwickshire trail Northants by 55 runs with two wickets remainingDom Sibley posted his second County Championship century of the campaign as Warwickshire frustrated Northamptonshire's hopes of pushing for victory at Wantage Road.

However, it looks unlikely either of the sides - who have registered just one Championship win between them this season - can find a way of increasing that tally on day four. Bears skipper Will Rhodes joined Sibley, who continued to advance at a snail's pace. The England opener's stay at the crease was approaching four hours when he reached his half-century.

Northamptonshire persevered with an all-spin attack but Sibley dealt with that to bring up his 17th first-class hundred, from 260 balls.
