Olly Stone to Ben Aitchison
Short ball, slower into the batter. Ben was early into the pull and gets a thud at the midriff. He was a bit too early here. Stone follows and gathers the ball, exchanges smiles with Ben.

Olly Stone to Ben Aitchison
A swing and a miss! Pace on from the bowler, short ball and whiskers past the outside edge as Ben goes for the wild pull.
Two sixes against legal deliveries is the need of the hour

Olly Stone to Ben Aitchison
A sharp bumper and breezes past the outside edge of Ben, who goes for the pull once again. He removes the eyes off the ball at the last moment, and seemed more of a rash pull. Its all in for the hosts!
Unless any extras, this is Outlaws' game now. Three wins on a trot loading....

Olly Stone to Ben Aitchison
Stone does it for the Outlaws. A happy Sunday for the hosts as their home lads does the job defending a 180-plus total. Short and wide outside the off, Ben gets the cue end on the swat towards deep cover point.

NOTS won by 10 runs
10:21 PM IST and 5:51 PM Local Time: A ten runs triumph is what the Nottinghamshire Outlaws fetch in this encounter. Not their A game tonight but plenty of positives to take away from as they pip the Derbyshire Falcons in a close-fought game at Trent Bridge.
Arriving for a tricky chase, the Falcons lost four wickets inside the powerplay. Aneurin Donald got off to a brisk start with the bat for the falcons but could not go along the way for long. Mohammad Ali and Dillon Pennington were discipline with the new ball as they removed the top order in quick time. However, Wayne Madsen, who came out to bat at No. 4, and tried to stay around for a while. He scored 27 off 22 balls with wickets falling from the other end.

The good thing about the Falcons was that they were up and running with the required run rate despite the fall in wickets. George Linde was tight with the ball and Liam Patterson-White bagged a couple in the middle overs to push the opposition on the back foot. Eventually, the Falcons were nine down for 141 in the 16th over with a three-fer each from Mohammad Ali and Dillon Pennington. With 39 to get from the last 18 balls, the tail didn't give up. Ben Aitchison remained unbridled for 25 in 16 balls but fell short to go over the line, leaving a deficit of 10 runs.
Previously, a rollicking start and twin fifties propelled the Outlaws to a respectable 183/6 against Derbyshire. George Munsey single-handedly dominated the powerplay in his 53 off 32 balls. Following Joe Clarke’s early departure, Jack Haynes maintained the momentum, anchoring the middle overs with a fluent 50 off 36 balls. A 67-run partnership was the backbone behind the innings. Right after, Tom Moores carried the baton with the bat, as he kept the foot on the gas with a quick-fire 39 off 24 balls. Though Derbyshire’s Akif Javed (2/31) and Nick Potts (1/27) triggered a late middle-order slide, a cameo from Freddie McCann (12* off 5) ensured a strong finish.

Hattrick of wins for the Nottinghamshire Outlaws in the end, and they keep moving in the T20 Blasty extravaganza. The Falcons would be proud of their effort despite the defeat. Let's see how the two sides unfold in the remainder of the competition.
