Worcestershire Win One-Day Cup on DLS After Last-Over Drama at Trent Bridge

A DLS chase ended with a boundary ruling that sealed Worcestershire's first 50-over title since 1994.

Overview

  • Worcestershire beat Hampshire by three wickets with two balls to spare, chasing a revised 188 from 27 overs under DLS.
  • Kyle Abbott completed a catch on the rope from Henry Cullen but touched the boundary cushion, turning it into the decisive four.
  • Ethan Brookes powered 57 off 34 balls to set up the pursuit before Matthew Waite’s late hitting finished the job.
  • Hampshire’s Ali Orr anchored their 45-over 237 with a century, while Scott Currie took 5-34 after being released from England’s T20 squad to play.
  • The Rapids dedicated the victory to the late Josh Baker, as Hampshire’s finals woes deepened with their women’s side losing Sunday’s One-Day Cup final to Lancashire.
