Toby Roland-Jones claimed four wickets to round off Middlesex's County Championship campaign in winning fashion as they ground down Gloucestershire on the final day at Lord's. Former Gloucestershire duo Zafar Gohar and Ryan Higgins backed up Roland-Jones with three and two wickets apiece as the Seaxes sealed an innings victory with 22 overs unused. The result meant Middlesex finished fourth in the final table, 11 points short of the promotion places, with Gloucestershire in sixth. Having dispatched Roland-Jones for two early boundaries and survived Noah Cornwell's appeal for a catch down the leg-side, Price settled into the groove, advancing to his half-century from 91 balls. Middlesex's hopes were lifted again by the new ball, which brought Roland-Jones the wickets of Matt Taylor – and then his elder brother, one short of his half-century – both snapped up at second slip.
