http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Nottinghamshire-c826, decided to bat first after winning the toss. He expected the pitch to assist the batsmen, but things didn’t go in the way of the visitors, as they kept on losing wickets at regular intervals
in the day.
Nottinghamshire’s openers, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Huzefa-Mohammed-Patel-c63657 was sent back to the pavilion after adding just eight runs to the total.
Things didnt go well for the visitors after that, as wickets started to fall on regular intervals. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Samit-Patel-c2426 failed to make an impression and were dismissed for three and four runs respectively.
Wessels played well and top scored the Nottinghamshire innings with 67 runs. He paced his innings nicely, as he got his runs from just 83 balls with the help of 10 fours and one massive six.
However, he was unable to carry on and make a http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Adam-Griffith-c919 one for his team and was the fourth wicket to fall in the day for the visitors.
Things didn’t look good for Nottinghamshire, as they lost four wickets for just 91 runs on the board.
However, cameos of 31 and 25 from middle-order batsmen, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Steven-John-Mullaney-c91313, guided the team’s total closer to 150.
The visitors’ skipper looked in good touch as he chipped in with 37 runs. He would have liked to carry onto the start he got to his innings, but failed to do so and was the seventh wicket to fall in the innings.
A quick fire 21 off 17 balls from the former http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Andre-Adams-c1033, guided Nottinghamshire to 223 in their first outing.
The new ball bowlers for Worcestershire, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Damien-Geoffrey-Wright-c52166, shared three wickets each in the day, restricting the opposition to a lesser total.

Opener, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Close-c51347 of play.
