00:56 IST & 20:26 Local Time| What a game we have had, it went all down to the wire and the Falcons held their nerves in the end to get over the line. Derbyshire Falcons have won this game by 5 wickets.

Earlier in the game, Derbyshire won the toss and invited Worcestershire Rapids to bat first. The Rapids got off to a decent start with their openers stitching together a partnership of 24 runs. Ed Pollock was then joined by Joshua Cobb, adding 25 runs for the second wicket. The Rapids had a strong powerplay, scoring 49 runs.

Ed Pollock played the anchor role, scoring 67 runs off 47 balls. A quick 30 off 19 balls by Ethan Brookes at the end helped the Rapids reach a total of 169 runs.
From a bowling perspective for the Falcons, Patrick Brown was the standout performer, taking 4 wickets.

Chasing a target of 170 runs, the Falcons' openers came out aggressively, forming a partnership of 33 runs off 17 balls. In the middle overs, the required run rate began to climb, but credit goes to Ross Whiteley, who stayed until the end and guided his team to victory with a well-played 41* runs off 22 balls.
For the Rapids, Harry Darley was the pick of the bowlers, taking 2 wickets.
