Nottinghamshire closed out their first win of the County Championship season as Glamorgan, tasked with scoring 478 to secure a highly improbable victory, were bowled out for 285.

Asa Tribe, unbeaten on 82 overnight, was dismissed in the third over of the morning but promoted Glamorgan at least demanded patience and perseverance of the defending champions, who collected 20 points to go second in the early-season Division One table, winning by 192 runs.

Starting on 132-2, Glamorgan were 200-7 at lunch but kept Nottinghamshire in the field until just before 16:00 BST, thanks to a show of defiance led by Mason Crane, their leg-spinner, who batted two-and-a-half hours for his 39.

Crane was last man out, leg before to left-arm spinner Liam Patterson-White, who finished with 3-13. There were two wickets for all-rounder Lyndon James, who did not start this match but came in as a last-day replacement after Australian bowler Fergus O’Neill dropped out with a rib injury.

O’Neill had taken five wickets in the match and played an important role with the bat too, his first-innings half-century helping Nottinghamshire recover from 103-6 to 279 all out after being put in on a difficult pitch.

Jack Haynes led that fightback with his first century of the season, matched by Joe Clarke in the second innings, whose 136 was key to giving his side a commanding lead after Glamorgan had been dismissed for 113.

Glamorgan went into the final day theoretically needing 346 more to win. Surviving 96 overs nine down or fewer was a more realistic target, so losing three wickets in the first five overs of the day was not the kind of start that was needed.

The news that O’Neill would miss the remainder might have been a source of comfort but Hutton and Dillon Pennington, who had combined effectively on the third evening after 52 overs were lost to rain, continued where they had left off.

Pennington struck first, having Kiran Carlson caught behind with a fine ball that took the outside edge of the Glamorgan captain’s defensive bat, before Hutton landed two major blows in the space of nine deliveries.

The bigger of the two came first as Tribe, who had survived a fierce test of his technique and temperament before Sunday’s close, shaped to play square into the off side only to bottom-edge into his stumps.

Wicketkeeper Kyle Verreynne, who had been standing up when Tribe was facing Hutton, went back for Colin Ingram and profited almost immediately as the 40-year-old Glamorgan stalwart could only connect with the edge as he went to drive.

James, the all-rounder, came in for O’Neill as the second injury replacement of the match.

Sean Dickson, the first of the substitutes after Ben Kellaway dropped out on day one, joined Chris Cooke in the middle and the pair mounted some resistance. Had they been able to sustain it beyond lunch, then Glamorgan might have felt they still had a chance of effecting an escape.

But James, on after a brief spell from Josh Tongue at the Stuart Broad End, removed each of them in consecutive overs, Cooke leg before and Dickson caught behind square, both pulling. Lunch saw Glamorgan 200-7.

To their credit, Glamorgan refused to roll over.

Timm van der Gugten and Crane dug in for another hour before the former was leg before to Patterson-White.

Crane found another durable partner in Andy Gorvin, who almost made it through 21 overs to tea, only to lose concentration just two balls from the scheduled interval time, dragging on a delivery from Patterson-White to be bowled, the ninth wicket delaying tea just long enough for the left-arm spinner to finish the job.
