Durham Holds Firm for Draw Against Essex Despite Browne's 184.

Essex's Nick Browne hit his first County Championship century in over a year, and Callum Parkinson took his first five-wicket haul for Durham. However, due to weather interruptions, the match at the Riverside ended in a draw.

The match was likely heading for a draw after the third day was washed out by rain. Despite Essex's strong first innings with 488 runs and a 130-run lead, they couldn't secure a win on the final afternoon.

Durham's Alex Lees (48 not out) and David Bedingham (33 not out) guided the team to 131-2 before play was halted due to bad light at 4.40 pm, leading to a draw.

Nick Browne's century (184) was the highlight, ending a long drought since his last century in Championship innings. Essex lost quick wickets in the afternoon session, including two run-outs in three balls.

Parkinson's impressive bowling (5-131) helped dismiss Essex for 488, with notable wickets including Harmer and Porter in the same over.
