- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.4 beautiful curling line from Fletcher, bending round the bat and kissing the edge. Moores dives in front of first slip to gather, and Notts are on the move! 7/130.6 a tumbling catch from Paterson at square leg! Broad's round-the-wicket line prises out the victim, a barrage of short balls, then the full one up to the toes. Libby is back on his stumps, flicks airily and his resistance is unpicked! 103/421.3 flicked off the legs, but straight at short leg! Fletcher's into the action once again ... 63/221.6 drilled hard, back through the full-length delivery, but it's straight at the bowler, who adjusts well in his followthrough to grab his second of the over, and tenth of the match! Now then... 63/347.6 a leading edge from D'Oliveira, working to leg, and caught at mid-off! That's a hammer-blow, and now Notts really are favourites for this round's only win! 136/738.2 hello, hello, that's one hell of a pluck from Duckett at second slip! Outside off, an uppish flash off the back foot, and out comes a ninja-quick right hand, to cling onto a flying edge! Nottinghamshire have an early breakthrough after tea, and now it's a fight to the finish! 124/543.5 nobbled on the knee-roll, and another one bites the dust! Full length, angled in, Cox leans into an injudicious drive, and that's plumb! 129/648.2 a strangle down the leg side, and Worcestershire are in ruins now! Broad knew instantly, celebrappealing all the way into Tom Moores' arms. He is loving his life back on the domestic scene. Such a soft way to go. And now it's really only rain that can save them 136/857.4 big inswinger, nailed on the knee-roll, up goes the finger and Nottinghamshire have won their third on the bounce! 150/955.3 Pat's got your Tongue! Off stump out of the ground! That's superb bowling, tightens his line by half a bat's width, and bends a length ball past a forlorn forward defensive, to send the stump cartwheeling! It's all over bar the ululating 149/9Extras13 (b 10, lb 2, w 1)TOTAL150 all out (f/o) (57.4 Overs, RR: 2.6)Fall of wickets: 1-7 (Daryl Mitchell, 3.4 ov), 2-63 (Tom Fell, 21.3 ov), 3-63 (Jack Haynes, 21.6 ov), 4-103 (Jake Libby, 30.6 ov), 5-124 (Riki Wessels, 38.2 ov), 6-129 (Ben Cox, 43.5 ov), 7-136 (Brett D'Oliveira, 47.6 ov), 8-136 (Alzarri Joseph, 48.2 ov), 9-149 (Josh Tongue, 55.3 ov), 10-150 (Joe Leach, 57.4 ov)
