At Trent Bridge, Nottinghamshire ended the day at 264 for 8, trailing Warwickshire by 195 runs in their Rothesay County Championship clash. Joe Clarke was the standout performer for Nottinghamshire, scoring 94 runs, while Ed Barnard was instrumental for Warwickshire with a remarkable 165 runs. Nottinghamshire's innings began poorly, losing early wickets before Clarke and Ben Duckett (62 runs) stabilized the innings with a solid partnership. However, the loss of Clarke just before the close of play, along with quick dismissals of other batsmen, left Nottinghamshire in a precarious position. Warwickshire had earlier strengthened their grip on the match with a ninth-wicket partnership of 119 runs between Barnard and Michael Booth, who contributed a career-best 70 runs. Josh Tongue was the pick of the bowlers for Nottinghamshire, taking five wickets for 124 runs.
