Notts in one-day win shock

With neither side having anything to play for in this match, thanks to the stupid format of the C&G Trophy this year, Notts took the opportunity to give youngster Paul McMahon his first game of the season

and there were a couple of familiar faces in the Northants' side -

Notts' old boys Usman Afzaal and Bilal Shafayat...

After a shaky start, Northants' Sourav Ganguly and Bilal Shafayat laid the foundations for a good score, and some wild bat swinging at the end of the innings proved quite productive...

...leaving Notts a very competitive target of 265 to chase.

Notts were soon in trouble at 41-4, but a hundred partnership from Fleming and Read kept them in the hunt.

Read was devilishly unlucky to be run out - when a straight drive from Fleming was deflected onto his stumps by Shafayat

but the skipper carried on, carving out a stylish century...

...to see Notts home

(with a bit of help from tailenders Gareth Clough and AJ Harris)

He finished the match in fine style, sweeping the third ball of the last over for six...

Notts 267-8 (49.4 overs: Fleming 121no, Read 61) beat Northants 264-7 (50 overs: Ganguly 71, Shafayat 53) by 2 wickets
