Notts Fightback After Strong Start For Seconds
Wed 10 May 2023
Nottinghamshire’s batsmen took the upper hand on a rain-affected day in the SEC at Lady Bay.
Tom Loten (55*) and Calvin Harrison (74*) put on a patient, but undefeated, 120 partnership, with Michael Finan, Sam Wood and Roman Walker taking the three wickets to fall.
Home captain Liam Patterson-White became the first man to fall, skewing Walker to Leicestershire skipper Sam Evans on 22. Notts 29/2.
It was soon 33/3, as Finan took a splendid caught and bowled chance to dismiss James Hayes for seven.
Dane Schadendorf was then caught behind by Harry Swindells off the bowling off Sam Wood for 13, unlucky for some, to leave Notts reeling on 57/4.
Wood was forced off after just nine deliveries with a side issue, an unfortunate development for the all-rounder who was looking threatening. Hishaam Khan his replacement.
Loten and Harrison then embarked on a resolute stand worth 120, interrupted by rain delays, off 40.5 overs. Notts still trailing by 29 runs, but with six wickets in hand heading into day three.
