Michael Lumb's 133 helped Nottinghamshire cruise past Warwickshire to move joint top of the Royal London One-Day Cup table with Derbyshire.

Notts won by 36 runs after bowling out their visitors for 379 as they chased Nottinghamshire's daunting 415-5 at Trent Bridge.

Daniel Christian hit 93 as Riki Wessels (76) and Greg Smith (73) also took apart the Warwickshire attack in addition to Lumb's century.

The mammoth score came after Lumb clubbed 184 in Notts' 445 against Northants on Monday.

Rikki Clarke claimed 2-45 and, in response, Warwickshire's Jonathan Trott hit 100 while Sam Hain reached 69 and Ian Bell 60. Tim Ambrose's 73 kept Warwickshire's hopes alive but they fell short in the final five overs.

White helped reduce Lancashire to 98-5 as they chased their hosts' 287-8 but only Karl Brown's 51 and Luke Procter's 52 offered any resistance as they were bowled out for 211.

Hamish Marshall's 74 helped Gloucestershire to 254-8 on the day the club announced he would leave at the end of the season - only for Middlesex to win by seven wickets on the Duckworth-Lewis method.

The 37-year-old former New Zealand Test player joined Gloucestershire in 2006, initially as an overseas player, and helped them beat Surrey by six runs in last year's One-Day Cup final at Lord's.

Toby Roland-Jones took 3-36, including the wicket of Marshall, before Middlesex raced to 211-3 - chasing a revised target of 208 to after a rain delay - with opener Paul Stirling hitting an unbeaten 125 from 102 balls.

Chris Cooke's 80 from 67 balls helped Glamorgan convincingly beat Sussex by 84 runs.

The hosts posted 302-6 and bowled the visitors out for 218 thanks to Michael Hogan's 4-41.

Somerset won a dramatic game against Surrey on the Duckworth-Lewis method at the Kia Oval.

Needing 13 runs to win from the final two overs, the visitors triumphed in the final over to post 180-2 after rain reduced the game to 24 overs each.

Surrey had reached 163-6 as Jason Roy hit 46 and Rory Burns an unbeaten 51 but Johann Myburgh (76) and captain Jim Allenby (71) put Somerset on course for a successful run chase.
