Derbyshire seal dramatic victory at Trent Bridge

Fynn Hudson-prentice’s 91 not out guided Derbyshire to their highest successful run chase against a county side with a ball to spare over Nottinghamshire at Trent Bridge.

The all-rounder’s superbly-judged 169-delivery innings saw the visitors reach their 365 target off the penultimate ball to secure a three-wicket Bob Willis Trophy victory in the North group.

Defeat left Nottinghamshire, who lost fast bowler Joey Evison with a foot injury early on the final day, still looking for their first county championship win since June 2018 despite having reduced their opponents to 234 for six.

Dawid Malan and Harry Brook helped Yorkshire get off the mark with a sixwicket victory over Durham at Emirates Riverside in the North group.

Requiring 68 on the final day to secure the win, the White Rose were frustrated by rain before debutant Malan finished with 73 and Brook – who finished things off with back-toback sixes – 66 not out to take them to their 171-run victory target.

Surrey-bound Jamie Overton led the way at Taunton with five for 48 to complete Somerset’s 289run victory over Glamorgan in the Midlands group.

Brother Craig finished with two for 31 and match figures of seven for 69 as the visitors’ five remaining wickets fell for 40 runs in 70 minutes on the final morning after they had resumed on 126 for five, 329 behind. Northamptonshire escaped with a draw against Warwickshire at Edgbaston after seventhwicket pair Adam Rossington and Luke Procter batted through the final day.

The visitors had been 148 for five in their second innings at lunch on the third day, 227 behind, but a flattening pitch and resilience from Rossington, who made 135, saw them reach safety.

Joe Leach took four wickets in a devastating five-over spell to propel Worcestershire to a comfortable eight-wicket victory over Gloucestershire.
