Somerset's County Championship match at Lancashire ended in a draw after rain caused the fourth day's play to be cancelled without a ball being bowled.

An early lunch had been taken at Old Trafford, before the match was called off after an inspection at 12:25 BST.

Lancashire had trailed by 131 runs with one first-innings wicket left, but both sides take 10 points from the game.

Somerset remain fourth in the table, with Lancashire eight points behind them in fifth place.
