Warwickshire County Cricket Club ended their Pro 40 campaign with a five wicket home defeat to Northamptonshire.

Warwicks had Ian Bell and Jon Trott back but were in trouble straight away when they batted first with Trott and Neil Carter both out without scoring.

Ian Bell hit 26 before he was caught by Sweeney with Troughton going for three and Will Porterfield for 30.

Tim Ambrose added 23 and Ateeq Javid hit 34 but Warwicks struggled and were all out for 145.

Northants put on 44 for their opening wicket and with Kyle Coetzer hitting an unbeaten 54, they passed the total with five wickets in hand and 52 balls to spare.

Warwicks are back to County Championship action against Yorkshire at Edgbaston on Wednesday. Play is due to start at 11am and commentary can be heard on the BBC Coventry & Warwickshire website.
