Nottinghamshire Triumphs Over Warwickshire in Rain-Affected One Day Cup Match

Nottinghamshire's Metro Bank One Day Cup campaign concluded on a positive note as they secured a 12-run (DLS) victory over Warwickshire at Rugby School. Despite the inconsistent nature of their campaign, Nottinghamshire's triumph ensured a high-spirited finish.

Warwickshire, despite the defeat, qualified for the quarter-finals and will face Worcestershire at Edgbaston on Friday. However, they must address their recent struggles after suffering consecutive defeats in the group stage.

Warwickshire's batting lineup struggled against Nottinghamshire's impressive bowling attack, with only Ed Barnard reaching 30. Robert Lord and Liam Patterson-White led the charge for Nottinghamshire, claiming three wickets each.

Nottinghamshire's chase was heavily impacted by rain, with the target revised to 173 in 38 overs. Despite losing early wickets, Jack Haynes and Tom Moores steadied the innings with an unbroken 73-run stand, guiding Nottinghamshire to victory.

The defeat dropped Warwickshire to third in the final Group B table, but they will still host Worcestershire due to New Road hosting England Lions vs Sri Lanka on Friday.
