Sussex 250 (49.3/50 ov)
Hampshire 253/8 (49.2/50 ov)
Hampshire won by 2 wickets (with 4 balls remaining)
A quick-fire 65 from all-rounder Gareth Berg handed Hampshire a dramatic two-wicket win against Sussex at Hove in the One-Day Cup.
The visitors chased a target of 251 with just four balls to spare as they recovered from a perilous 133-6.
Berg struck sevens fours and two sixes off just 37 balls to follow his earlier 3-51 with the ball.
Sussex had looked set for a second win in two games when Harry Finch made 108 from 142 balls in a total of 250.
Finch's maiden List A century came from 137 balls as he marshalled the majority of Sussex's innings, although he survived being dropped three times - including twice in his 90s.
Luke Wright made 56 from 66 balls as he and Finch shared a second-wicket partnership of 105.
Hampshire looked well behind the required rate when Hashim Amla fell for 63 off 83 balls, but Berg and Lewis McManus (41) put on 61 in just 37 balls for the seventh-wicket to wrestle the momentum back in their favour.
Worcestershire 323/6 (50 ov)
Derbyshire 273 (46.3/50 ov)
Worcestershire won by 50 runs
Worcestershire began their One-Day Cup campaign with a 50-run victory over Derbyshire at New Road.
Ross Whiteley (58), Ben Cox (56 not out) and Tom Fell (56) all made half-centuries as the hosts reached 323-6 - their second biggest total at their home ground in 50-over cricket.
Wayne Madsen's 87 and 62 from Luis Reece kept Derbyshire in contention at 208-4 with 15 overs remaining.
But they lost three wickets in six balls before ending 273 all out.
Three Worcestershire bowlers took two wickets apiece, with Travis Head (2-48) ending Madsen's aggressive 70-ball innings.
