Wayne Madsen's blistering innings helped Derbyshire win at Somerset in a rain-affected One-Day Cup game.

After the match finally began at 16:15 BST, Madsen hit 45 from 27 balls as the visitors managed 134-7 from 14 overs.

More rain forced the teams off again with Somerset 5-1 in reply after one over, with the hosts then set a revised target of 104 to win in 10 overs.

But they failed to get going after the restart, with Ben Cotton taking 3-11 to help bowl them out for 74.
