Brett Hutton’s century was not quite enough for Nottinghamshire’s Second XI as they fell short against Derbyshire by 15-runs in the Second XI Trophy.
The all-rounder struck ten fours and two sixes on his way to 119 off 121 balls as the visitors to Denby tried in vain to chase down a victory target of 310 from their 50 overs.
Billy Root (40) and Tom Keast (66*) were the other significant contributors to Nottinghamshire’s 294-6.
Ben Slater had earlier starred for the hosts with 139 as they posted 309-2.
