Leicestershire v Nottinghamshire - Friends Life T20 - North Group - Nottinghamshire win by 6 wickets - Live Score and Update
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Nottinghamshire-c826 98/4 (13.0/20 ov) - Nottinghamshire won by 6 wickets (with 42 balls remaining)
After a week of merciless rain, fans in http://www.senore.com/Cricket/England-c56013 finally got to witness a superb T20 match between Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire on Tuesday in the Friends Life T20 that was won by Nottinghamshire by six wickets at Grace Road, Leicester.
Things were Nottinghamshire’s way right from the start as they won the toss and chose to field first in order to restrict the opposition on a small total.
The bowlers backed the decision of their skipper http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Adam-Voges-c925 as the made early inroads and wrecked havoc on the batsmen, reducing the opposition on a meagre tally of 96 runs.
Given a target of 97 to win the match, Nottinghamshire also had a nervous start to their innings as they lost their first wicket with only nine runs on the board. Opener AD Hales was the first to fall as he perished after scoring a knock of five runs.
Then with 29 runs on the board, Leicestershire struck for the second time by dismissing star middle-order batsman MH Wessels, who lost his way after clobbering a knock of nine runs.
After MJ Hoggard had struck twice, it was then RML Taylor’s turn to shine, as he dismissed Voges with 60 runs on the board. The Nottinghamshire skipper mustered a phenomenal innings of 21 runs off just 15 deliveries before hitting the showers.
The partnership between opener http://www.senore.com/Cricket/MJ-Lumb-c1981 and SR Patel served as a coffin nail for Leicestershire with both batsmen hammering away the bowlers in a bid to reach the target in a jiffy.
The daunting partnership met its doom with 82 runs on the board as CW Henderson struck to nab the wicket of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Huzefa-Mohammed-Patel-c63657, who played an innings of 17 runs off 14 deliveries.
This wicket could not save Leicestershire from an imminent defeat as the damage had been done.
Meanwhile, Lumb and JWA Taylor kept their cool and steered Nottinghamshire to victory in 13 overs with Lumb on 25 and http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Taylor-c92915 on 16
