Unhone apne last three matches lose kiye hain, aur latest defeat tab aayi jab wo total defend kar rahe the jo 4 balls remaining ke saath chase ho gaya.

Haynes’ powerplay blitz sets it up
Jack Haynes’ 17-ball 36 gave Nottinghamshire the head start that ultimately carried them through a nervy finish, even as the chase threatened to unravel. After restricting Warwickshire to 139 all out, Notts looked in complete control early, then had to scrap deep into the 20th over before getting home by three wickets with one ball remaining.
Yates turns the middle overs
The game swung hard in the middle phase of the chase. Nottinghamshire stormed to 67/1 in the powerplay, but from there Warwickshire’s bowling squeezed and struck, dragging the hosts to 121/7 across the middle overs (54/6 at 5.4 an over). Robert Yates was the catalyst: his 4/22 repeatedly hit the stumps and forced miscues, turning a cruise into a chase that demanded calm in the final two overs.
Haynes starts, Ali finishes job
Haynes’ early striking created breathing room that mattered once wickets fell in clusters. Mohammad Ali’s 3/27 was just as important in shaping a chaseable target, breaking Warwickshire’s momentum as they tried to accelerate after a steady start. Yates was the standout on the day, yet Nottinghamshire’s composure at the death — 22/0 after the wobble — ensured his spell didn’t steal the points.
Pre-match edge, match-day stress
Nottinghamshire came in rated slightly ahead on form and recent head-to-heads, and the powerplay showed why: they scored faster and cleaner up top than Warwickshire managed. But the expected late-innings comfort never arrived because Warwickshire’s best work came exactly where Notts can be vulnerable — the middle overs — and it kept the finish tight. Warwickshire, winless in their last three, still pushed the game to the last ball, but couldn’t land the final blow.
