On a high, Egerton Park set out to find early wickets, and Nick Watchorn got them off to the perfect start when he picked up two quick wickets in an over.
Overseas signing Mitchell Ellis bowled a very tight spell to help take the game away from Narborough.
There were further wickets from Panchal, Newton, Glover and two further wickets from Watchorn, but the visitors shut up shop and saw out the draw seven wickets down.
