Oxford Students 3 Day Friendly at Trent Bridge Draw

 

Day 3

With the morning session lost to the weather, Oxford declared on their overnight score and gave Nottinghamshire batsmen another opportunity to bat. Alas both Hameed and Duckett missed out for a second time in the game but Notts scored freely and at tea were 123 for 5 - a lead of 242

At tea it was decided to call it a day and the matched was declared drawn.

Day 2

Notts declared on their overnight score. Brett Hutton removed 4 of the students during the morning session. With great credit the students, they battled away for the rest of the day mainly due to Hampshire's Calvin Harrison 121, who had the ignominy of being dismissed by the less than occasional bowling of Ben Slater but also due to Essex 2nd's Moazzam Rizvi 66. Oxford closed 291/9 

Day 1

Hameed, Duckett and Clarke all missed out in the morning session.

Slater and Compton made the most of their opportunity at the crease with the former retiring out on 103 to be replaced by skipper Mullaney during the middle session.

At tea 260/3(4) 58 overs

100* retired out by both Compton and Mullaney followed by 51 from Moores meant Notts ended the day at 6pm on 410/4 (7).
