Warwickshire and Leicestershire both qualify for the One-Day Cup knockout stages on a rain-hit afternoon.
Warwickshire made it six wins out of six as they and Leicestershire both secured a place in the knockout stages on a rain-hit day of action in the One-Day Cup.
Both are guaranteed at least a quarter-final place and, if they each win on Sunday, when the Bears host Durham and the Foxes host Yorkshire, they will skip the quarter-finals and earn a home semi-final on Tuesday week.After a day of bad weather in Birmingham, Edgbaston groundsman Gary Barwell and his team did well to get a game on - even for 10 overs a side.
"It was a clinical bowling performance from the guys. Execution-wise, it was outstanding, as good as it gets, To be fair, Northamptonshire bowled well too, but we had a strong start to our innings and then a couple of batters at the end, who scored valuable runs and were a bit frustrated they didn't get more."and Worcestershire are two points behind the 100-per-cent Bears but both have only one game left.in a game reduced to 38 overs a side.
Price, who contributed 42 in their partnership of 128 for the fifth wicket, perished in the deep looking to reach three figures first. Derbyshire gave a debut to 16-year-old Henry Moore, making him the club's youngest-ever player, but were left to rue a specular collapse with the bat as they subsided to 192 all out chasing 253, with Luis Reece's brilliant 96 off 64 balls in vain.The visitors lost openers Gareth Roderick and Ed Pollock with only 11 runs on the board. But, just as in their win over Northamptonshire, when they put on a record 194 together, Rob Jones and Jake Libby upped the momentum.
Derbyshire looked well set for only their second win in the competition when Reece's mix of power and touch had them 145-2 after 18 overs. But Wayne Madsen miscued Matthew Waite to Pat Brown at deep cover to start an alarming slide that saw six wickets lost for 28 runs.In the only game in Group A, Leicestershire clinched their place in the knock-out stages with a 23-run win over Middlesex in the last of the day's four rain-affected contests.
