Kohler-Cadmore helps Somerset stave off Notts threat
Rothesay County Championship Division One, Cooper Associates County Ground, Taunton (day four)Somerset 379 & 238-4: Kohler-Cadmore 147*; Patterson-White 4-104Nottinghamshire 509: Haynes 157, Slater 124, James 66; Leach 6-121 Somerset (11 pts) drew with Nottinghamshire (12 pts) Match scorecard Somerset's Tom Kohler-Cadmore defied Nottinghamshire with a match-saving final day century as the Rothesay County Championship Division One match at Taunton ended in a visitors had realistic hopes of victory when reducing their opponents to 28-3, still needing 102 to avoid an innings defeat. But Kohler-Cadmore hit an unbeaten 147, off 196 balls, with 11 fours and six sixes, sharing stands of 96 with James Rew and 114 with Tom Abell, to see Somerset to 238-4 by the time the players shook spinner Liam Patterson-White bowled 29 overs unchanged from the River End either side of lunch and finished with 4-104 from 33 overs, but no other Notts bowler could make a significant impression with the Kookaburra ball on a pitch offering only occasional turn and no assistance for the home side set out at 4-1f but it was soon 18-2 as Sean Dickson was rapped on the back pad by a ball from Patterson-White that turned and departed lbw for was to follow for Somerset when Tom Lammonby, on seven, pulled a short ball from Patterson-White and picked out the only fielder on the leg side, Farhan Ahmed at deep went on the counter-attack, launching three big sixes back over the head of off-spinner Ahmed, the last pitching on top of the Marcus Trescothick the most impressive aspect of the former Yorkshire player's innings was the respect he showed the other bowlers having spread the field, content to pick up ones and twos as he and Rew laid the first foundations for avoiding Rew was equally intelligent in his shot selection, nullifying the effect of Patterson-White, who displayed the same control of line and length that his Somerset counterpart Jack Leach had shown on day lunch the scoreboard read 112-3 and the Notts lead was down to 18 runs. Patterson-White had bowled throughout the morning, sending down 15 overs for 46 runs and two wickets. Somerset could feel some relief, but there was still work to be done, especially when Rew fell for 43 early in the afternoon session, top-edging a sweep off Patterson-White to Joe Clarke at short fine took his place and batted through the rest of the session with Kohler-Cadmore, who blasted his fourth six over wide long-on off Patterson-White and then clipped a four through the leg side off Ahmed to reach a fine hundred off 138 was Kohler-Cadmore's third Championship century since joining the county in 2023, two of them coming in the last two matches. Cloudless skies did not aid the Notts bowlers and by tea, with the Somerset total advanced to 197-4, the draw looked final session saw Kohler-Cadmore strike another straight six, this time onto the roof of the Lord Ian Botham Stand off Patterson-White, before moving past his previous best Somerset score of then the outcome was all but settled. Abell had contributed just 21 when his stand with Kohler-Cadmore reached the century mark, but it was a typically solid knock that extinguished any lingering notions of a Notts Notts wicketkeeper Ishan Kishan entered the attack to bowl what proved the last over of the game it was a tame end to an often compelling Reporters' Network supported by Rothesay

Leaders Notts thump Hampshire by 366 runs
Rothesay County Championship Division One, Trent Bridge (day three)Nottinghamshire 333 & 345: Patterson-White 135, Haynes 120; Abbott 3-62Hampshire 196 & 116: Baker 27; James 5-22, Hutton 4-56Notts (21 pts) beat Hampshire (3 pts) by 366 runsMatch scorecard Hampshire collapsed to defeat after centuries from Jack Haynes and Liam Patterson-White had batted them out of the game as Division One leaders Nottinghamshire romped to a third victory in their opening five matches of the County Championship season, winning by a massive 366-run Patterson-White struck a magnificent career-best 135 containing 21 fours and two sixes, with Haynes making 120, the pair sharing a seventh-wicket stand of 238 as the Trent Bridge side made 345 in their second down 483 to win looked wholly unrealistic on a pitch that has made the new ball a potent weapon but Hampshire supporters would have hoped at least to see the match taken to a fourth they witnessed their team bowled out for a miserable 116 by 17:30 BST with former favourite Mohammad Abbas not even among the wickets as the bowling honours were shared between Lyndon James (5-22) and Brett Hutton (4-56).The winning margin is Nottinghamshire's second largest by runs in their Championship mayhem of the final session was in complete contrast with the first, when it felt like a different match as Nottinghamshire's seventh wicket pair, whose partnership was worth 87 at Saturday's close, added another 144 runs before 60 overnight, had given his team-mate a 21-run start but in the event, as Hampshire's bowlers toiled in vain to conjure life from an aging ball on a pitch that looked benign for the first time in the match, Patterson-White was first to three reached the milestone from 139 balls with a mighty pull for six off Sonny Baker. It was his second six of the innings, having hit 76 runs of his hundred runs in that he had not made even a half-century in 32 innings over three seasons before this one and had struggled to keep his place in the side, it was little wonder he allowed himself a lengthy later, he overtook his previous career-best - 101 against Somerset at Taunton in 2021 - before a single off Baker completed Haynes's hundred, from 137 balls, also with 16 fours, his second in five dropped at deep square leg on 80, departed three overs after lunch. Kyle Abbott now had the new ball in hand but it was coming back for a second run to deep mid-wicket that cost Haynes, Baker's throw to the wicketkeeper beating him the completed first run was enough to take the partnership to 238, Nottinghamshire's second biggest for the seventh wicket against any followed up with a more conventional new-ball wicket in his next over - taking his tally for the season to 23 as the country's leading wicket-taker so far - as Hutton was caught behind without scoring, after which Farhan Ahmed was yorked by James Fuller and Patterson-White bowled off a bottom gave Hampshire a theoretical target of 483 to win the match or else bat long enough to salvage some pride. Yet the chances of achieving even that quickly diminished as they slipped to 33-3 at bowled six wicketless overs but from the other end Hutton had a leaden-footed Fletcha Middleton leg before and Mark Stoneman caught behind off a thin outside edge. First change James then dismissed Prest, who top-edged a cut as Kyle Verreynne held a second there was little sign of Hampshire trying to bed in for a fight after tea as wickets tumbled with unseemly Brown's loose pull off Hutton came down in the hands of square leg, Nick Gubbins fell tamely to a catch at extra cover off, Liam Dawson was caught on the boundary hooking, Fuller flicked straight to midwicket, Toby Albert, dropped at first slip, edged to third - albeit superbly caught by Haynes - and Brad Wheal was caught at mid-off, leaving the visitors and Baker kept the home side's celebrations on hold for 10 overs before the latter sliced to backward point for 27 as Hampshire's top scorer, Patterson-White aptly taking the final Reporters' Network supported by Rothesay
