“It was a very hot day and to get eight is just amazing,” said Sanderson, who claimed 55 Championship wickets this season at an average of 21.03.
“We knew that a couple of wickets with the new ball would give us a new lease of life and it wobbled just a little bit.
“We thought they were a bit short with the ball so we worked on our lengths to get a bit fuller and it proved key in both innings.
“I said I probably won’t beat the seven-for at Swansea but this is amazing, what a way to end the season.”
