  1. Signing off

    There hasn't been as much cricket played this evening as we would have liked, but Notts Outlaws and Glamorgan won't be complaining after victories in the two completed games.

    Samit Patel hit an unbeaten 64 and took two wickets as they defeated neighbours Derbyshire Falcons by two runs in a thrilling 15-overs contest.

    Glamorgan, meanwhile, moved up a place to fifth in South group following their comfortable 21-run win over Middlesex.

    Let's hope for better weather over the next few days as the Blast continues. Thanks for your company.

  3. NOTTS WIN BY TWO RUNS
    Breaking

    Notts Outlaws 152-6 v Derbyshire Falcons 150-6 (15 overs)

    Leus du Plooy hits Luke Fletcher for six but Notts have done it! A big win for them.

    Du Plooy scored 10 off the last two balls and finished on 58 from 35 balls in a fine innings but it wasn't quite enough for Derbyshire as they fall to a narrow defeat.

    Samit Patel's contribution can't be overlooked as he followed-up his unbeaten 64 with two wickets and a catch to steer his team to victory.

  4. Notts Outlaws 152-6 v Derbyshire Falcons 144-6 (19.5 overs)

    Leus du Plooy hits four - but it's not really enough.

    One ball to go and nine needed.

  5. Notts Outlaws 152-6 v Derbyshire Falcons 140-6 (14.4 overs)

    Alex Thomson is hit on the pad and a leg bye is run and that will help Notts.

    13 required from two balls looks a tall order...

  6. Notts Outlaws 152-6 v Derbyshire Falcons 138-6 (14.2 overs)

    Leus du Plooy hits Luke Fletcher for four!

    15 from four balls needed.

  7. Notts Outlaws 152-6 v Derbyshire Falcons 134-6 (19.1 overs)

    A single from the opening ball of the final over - 19 needed from five.

  8. Notts Outlaws 152-6 v Derbyshire Falcons 133-6 (14 overs)

    Leus du Plooy has now passed 250 runs in this season's T20 Blast but he can't add anything with the last ball of the over as Jake Ball's delivery deceives him.

    Final over upcoming - 20 needed.

    Are you ready?!

  9. Notts Outlaws 152-6 v Derbyshire Falcons 132-6 (13.4 overs)

    A better couple of deliveries for Jake Ball with only singles conceded.

    The next ball is close to a wide but the umpire says no - and it's a dot ball.

  10. Ingram 'chuffed' after Glamorgan win

    "The work the boys have done in the off-season, in terms of team culture and that type of thing, made it really difficult for Middlesex."

    Listen to Glamorgan batsman's Colin Ingram verdict on this evening's South group victory and his own return to form.

  11. 6 runs

    Notts Outlaws 152-6 v Derbyshire Falcons 130-6 (13.1 overs)

    That'll help!

    Alex Thomson smashes a big six off the second ball he faces!

  12. Notts Outlaws 152-6 v Derbyshire Falcons 124-6 (13 overs)

    Leus du Plooy's innings has been more a slow-burner but he's the man who needs to stay in and score runs here for Derbyshire.

    Two overs left and the Falcons need 29.

  13. wicket

    WICKET Guest c Patel b Carter 6

    Notts Outlaws 152-6 v Derbyshire Falcons 122-6 (12.4 overs)

    You can't keep Samit Patel out of this game as he takes a catch to dismiss Brooke Guest for six.

    It really is getting interesting now!

  14. Notts Outlaws 152-6 v Derbyshire Falcons 118-5 (12 overs)

    Leus du Plooy releases the pressure a little with the first boundary in several overs and follows it up with a six!

    He is now on 40 and is being supported by Brooke Guest who is on a run-a-ball four.

    A better over for Derbyshire that one but it's still anyone's game as we approach the final stages.

    There are 35 needed from 18 balls.

  15. Notts Outlaws 152-6 v Derbyshire Falcons 102-5 (11 overs)

    Notts have really wrestled back the momentum of this game with those wickets.

    Derbyshire looked to be racing towards the total but they are now behind where Notts were at the same stage.

    The Falcons require 51 from 24 balls.

  16. wicket

    WICKET Hudson-Prentice b Patel 6

    Notts Outlaws 152-6 v Derbyshire Falcons 97-5 (10 overs)

    Wicket 250 is closely-followed by wicket 251 for Samit Patel!

    Fynn Hudson-Prentice goes for the big shot but gets it all wrong and is clean bowled by Patel.

    It's very interestingly poised now at Trent Bridge and after all those early boundaries it's been some time since the last one.

  17. Notts Outlaws 152-6 v Derbyshire Falcons 92-4 (9 overs)

    Steven Mullaney took out Luis Reece and has conceded only five from his latest over as Notts seek to build on their momentum.

    Leus du Plooy (21 not out) and Fynn Hudson-Prentice (5 not out) are the men in the middle for the Falcons.

  18. wicket

    WICKET Critchley lbw Patel 0

    Notts Outlaws 152-6 v Derbyshire Falcons 87-4 (8 overs)

    Two quick wickets and this one is a milestone for Samit Patel who claims his 250th wicket in T20 cricket.

    Matthew Critchley only lasted three balls before heading back to the changing rooms and Notts have just checked Derbyshire's progress at an important stage of the game.

  19. wicket

    WICKET Reece c Hales b Mullaney 56

    Notts Outlaws 152-6 v Derbyshire Falcons 82-3 (7 overs)

    What an important breakthrough for Notts as Luis Reece departs after a fine innings.

    The opener launches another big shot towards the boundary but this one doesn't quite have the legs and is snaffled-up by Alex Hales.

    His innings could be the match-winning one though.

  20. 50 runs

    for Reece

    Notts Outlaws 152-6 v Derbyshire Falcons 82-2 (6.5 overs)

    A boundary brings up Luis Reece's half-century and what a great knock it's been from 24 balls.

    He's had three sixes in that total and after passing 50 he sends the ball on a familiar journey to the boundary for his sixth four.
