Kent, Notts, Bears, Hants, Worcs, Essex & Glam win in One-Day Cup

Matt Parkinson's four wickets sealed a tense win for Kent at Blackpool

Kent leg-spinner Matt Parkinson thwarted his former Lancashire team-mates to clinch a thrilling five-run win in the One-Day Cup at Blackpool.

Parkinson, who left the Red Rose county last season, finished with 4-30 to leave Lancashire skipper Keaton Jennings high and dry on 107 not out as the home side fell just short in the final over.

Rocky Flintoff, the 16-year-old son of former England captain Andrew, made his first-team debut and scored 12 before becoming the first of Parkinson's four victims.

There were also victories in Group A for Worcestershire and Hampshire, who overcame Durham and Somerset, respectively, to both join Derbyshire at the top of the table with two wins from two.

Warwickshire squeezed past Sussex by one wicket to stay top of Group B, with Will Rhodes – who will leave the Bears at the end of the season – playing a crucial innings of 60.

Glamorgan thrashed Surrey for their second successive win in the tournament, while Nottinghamshire defeated Yorkshire, and Essex triumphed away to Gloucestershire.

Group A - Jennings' heroic knock in vain for Lancs

Captain Jennings, who had already struck two centuries at Blackpool in the County Championship this season, looked certain to guide Lancashire home with another ton until Parkinson intervened with two late wickets.

Chris Green took 3-38 as Kent were bowled out for 209, with left-arm seamer Ollie Sutton picking up a wicket on debut before he was forced off with a side strain just three balls into his spell.

Beyers Swanepoel (3-26) and Charlie Stobo (2-30) struck back with the ball for Kent before Parkinson removed Will Williams and Sutton, who was clearly in pain at the crease, to wrap up the game with four deliveries to spare.

Left-arm spinner Tom Hinley claimed a five-wicket haul in only his second game for Worcestershire, who defeated Durham by 93 runs at New Road to make it two wins from two.

Skipper Jake Libby led the fightback after the Pears had slipped to 16-3, hitting 89 to steer the home side to 260 all out, with on-loan debutant Fateh Singh contributing a 46-ball knock of 60.

Tom Taylor's incredible first over left Durham reeling at 1-3 in reply and, although 19-year-old Ben McKinney's career-best 80 kept the visitors in contention, Hinley rattled through the tail to dismiss them for 167 and finish with 5-56.

Toby Albert's 96 not out was his highest white-ball score for Hampshire

Hampshire's Toby Albert narrowly missed out on a maiden white-ball century, but his unbeaten 96 from 87 balls was enough to steer his side to their second successive win, overcoming Somerset by five wickets at Southampton.

The home side fought back to bowl out their opponents for 242 after an opening partnership of 85 between Josh Thomas (41) and Andy Umeed – who followed up his hundred against Kent with an innings of 84.

Despite losing two early wickets in reply, Hampshire got back on track thanks to Fletcha Middleton's 50 before Albert and Felix Organ (46 not out) shared an unbroken partnership of exactly 100 to win with 3.5 overs to spare.

Group B - Bears' last pair squeeze past Sussex

Last man Olly Hannon-Dalby scrambled two runs off Archie Lenham to clinch a nail-biting win for Warwickshire as they edged past Sussex in a low-scoring game at Hove.

The home side began well with an opening stand of 71 between Tom Clark and Tom Haines, but they then crumbled to 173 all out in 35.1 overs, with Bears seamer Michael Booth taking 3-16.

Warwickshire struggled at the start of their chase, sliding to 76-5 before Rhodes and Kai Smith (44) added 73 – only for three wickets to fall in eight balls and reignite Sussex hopes, but Jake Lintott and Hannon-Dalby held their nerve.

Glamorgan needed only 15.5 overs to chase down a modest target of 122 against Surrey at the Oval, with Colin Ingram smashing an undefeated 39 from 26 balls to seal the visitors' seven-wicket victory.

Only three Surrey players managed to reach double figures as they were rolled for just 121 in 34 overs, Ben Foakes top-scoring with 44.

Glamorgan spinner Ben Kellaway bowled both right and left-handed – capturing a wicket each way – to finish with figures of 2-16, while Jamie McIlroy, Dan Douthwaite and Andy Gorvin also claimed two wickets apiece.

Brett Hutton ripped through Yorkshire's top order to finish with figures of 6-38 and set up an 83-run success for Nottinghamshire at Nettleworth.

The result was harsh on Yorkshire seamer Ben Coad, whose career-best 4-14 reduced the home side to 60-5 before Lyndon James' 76 and Liam Patterson-White's undefeated 38 at a run a ball lifted them to 209 all out.

That proved more than enough, with Yorkshire-born Hutton producing his second-best figures in limited-overs cricket as the visitors were dismissed for 126, although Coad (31) led defiant resistance from the tail.

Teenage all-rounder Luc Benkenstein top-scored with 67 from 63 balls to help secure Essex's first victory of the campaign as they triumphed by 63 runs against Gloucestershire at Bristol.

Benkenstein was supported by Robin Das (52) in the visitors' total of 262-8, with seamer Dom Goodman taking 4-43 for Gloucestershire, who collapsed to 78-8 in reply after three early wickets for Shane Snater.

Ajeet Singh Dale held Essex up with an extraordinary career-best knock of 63 from 34 balls, including five sixes and five fours.

He shared an 85-run partnership for the last wicket with Tom Smith until he was finally dismissed to end the Gloucestershire innings at 199.
