    Just a feel that the Rapids are coming back. There are smiles back on faces, adrenaline coursing through veins.

    Can they grasp victory when it was looking all Notts?

    Notts 137-3 (target 148)

    Dan Christian trying to power a length ball over mid-off and Moeen Ali backpeddles from mid-off to leap up and claim the catch.

  13. Divine shot from Christianpublished at 13:41 British Summer Time 21 September 2019

    Former England batter on BBC Radio 5 live Sports Extra

    I really enjoy watching Dan Christian bat.

    He's one of those people that just wears his heart on his sleeve and that was a brilliant strike.

  14. Notts need 11 from 12 balls to beat Worcspublished at 18 overs

    Ben Duckett now sensing a chance to win the game.

    He shuffles around in his crease and lifts this from way outside off over the wicketkeeper for four! Superb stuff.

    That was the over Notts needed. Game over now surely.

    A huge strike from Dan Christian to whack a length ball over midwicket into the bleachers.

    Wayne Parnell is back...

  17. Notts need 26 in 18 balls against Worcspublished at 17 overs

    Ben Duckett offered width and cuts hard but only finds short-third man.

    A single to Dan Christian keeps the Australian on strike.

    Ed Barnard's penultimate over.

    Useful boundary.

  19. Notts in the driving seatpublished at 13:33 British Summer Time 21 September 2019

    It's not plain sailing for Notts but you certainly favour the batting side in this sort of situation.

    If the Rapids can keep it quiet this over that might put the onus back on to the Outlaws a little.

  20. Notts 113-2 chasing 148 to winpublished at 16 overs

    Alex Hales' half-century - the first of the match - had Nottinghamshire in cruise control.

    But with 35 needed from the final four overs, could nerves creep into the Outlaws' camp?
