Resuming on 201 for seven, all went well for Durham until Mark Wood pulled Luke Fletcher straight to mid-wicket with the total on 244.
Jennings, on 82 overnight, moved into the 90s when he pulled Jake Ball through square leg for his first boundary of the day.

Hide AdHe was on 99 when Wood departed, but ran Gurney to third man to reach his hundred off 201 balls, with 16 fours.
Graham Onions’ reluctance to get into line saw him bowled by Gurney, then Chris Rushworth pushed his first ball into the covers and failed to beat Ball’s throw in going back for a second.
Other than a couple of edges, which did not go to hand, plus a very quick bouncer from Wood, there were no scares for Nottinghamshire openers Greg Smith (26) and Jake Libby (16).
