Gloucestershire register their first Championship win since 2022, with Marchant de Lange taking 3-58 as they beat Northants by 256 runs.
Pace bowler Marchant de Lange led the charge with three wickets to set up Gloucestershire's first County Championship victory since September 2022 on the final day of their clash against Northamptonshire at Wantage Road.
For a while that looked a possibility as India international Karun Nair and George Bartlett shared a fluent stand of 83 in 24 overs after Luke Procter was caught and bowled by Tom Price as he tried to flick the ball to leg. South African De Lange had struck Nair on the helmet shortly before lunch and finally claimed his wicket when the India batter fended a catch to mid-wicket.
