Royal London One-Day Cup - Play-Offs and Semi Final details
Worcestershire Rapids and Hampshire are one win away from the Royal London One-Day Cup final at Lord’s, leaving Essex Eagles, Yorkshire Vikings, Kent Spitfires and the holders Notts Outlaws to square up in next Thursday’s Play-Offs for the right to meet them in the semi finals.
The Outlaws will have home advantage against Kent after a crushing victory over Derbyshire Falcons in the last round of group matches today lifted them to second place in the North Group.
Yorkshire, who finished level on points with Notts after winning their last game at home to Northamptonshire but were placed third because of an inferior net run rate, must travel to Chelmsford to face the Eagles – who finished second in the South Group.
That game will be shown live on Sky Sports (2pm start), with the winners earning a trip to Hampshire, the South Group winners, in the second semi final on June 18 – another day-night game with a 2pm start.
The winners of the Notts-Kent play-off, which will start at 11am, will travel to Worcester on Sunday June 17.
Worcestershire earned top spot in the North Group for the second consecutive season with a dramatic victory against local rivals Warwickshire at Edgbaston.
