Should you be visiting us for the match against the Durham Jets on Friday 1 July, this matchday guide contains all the information you need to ensure maximum enjoyment from your evening out at Trent Bridge.

Hours of Play

Gates open at 5pm, at which point the big screen production will begin, with the start of play scheduled for 6.30pm.

The first innings will take place between 6.30pm and 7:45pm, before a 15 minute interval. The second innings will then commence from 8pm until 9.15pm. In the unfortunate circumstance of any rain delays, there's provision for 30 minutes of extra time before any overs are lost.

Weather Forecast & Policy In The Event Of Rain

The weather forecast for Friday evening is largely sunny with temperatures reaching a high of 17 degrees.

Should we be hit by enough rain for play to be restricted to 9.5 overs or less and no result is obtained, then you will be entitled to a full refund on your ticket or the right to use it for any other Notts Outlaws NatWest T20 Blast group match, Royal London One Day Cup group match or a day of Specsavers County Championship cricket at Trent Bridge during the 2016 season.

If 10 overs or more are played but no result is obtained then you will be entitled to use your match ticket for any other Notts Outlaws NatWest Blast T20 group match, Royal London One Day Cup group match or a day of Specsavers County Championship cricket at Trent Bridge during the 2016 season.  

Ticketing Information

Tickets will remain available online until gates open at 5pm with the option to beat the queues by printing at home or collecting at the ground, with savings to be made by purchasing by midnight the night before the game.

Team News

South Africa international leg-spinner Imran Tahir, the world's number three T20 bowler, is set for his Outlaws debut against the men from the north-east, bolstering an already impressive line-up of international talent on show.

Durham are likely to be armed with the England trio of Paul Collingwood, Phil Mustard and Scott Borthwick, while the Outlaws boast a Three Lions trio of their own in Michael Lumb, Samit Patel and Harry Gurney.

Notts Outlaws captain, the former Australia all-rounder Dan Christian, completes the international line-up as the home side seek redemption for their defeat against the same opposition earlier in the tournament.

Food

A range of outlets, serving local Nottinghamshire food, will be situated around the ground for you to enjoy.

The Cricketers' Suite, on the first floor of the Radcliffe Road Stand, is open to all serving hot and cold food & drink, including vegetarian and gluten free options.

A range of additional food concessions will be available in the Trent Bridge Inn courtyard, including Dodson’s Fish & Chips, Gallop Farm Burger & Sausage and - new for 2016 - Rustic Crust Pizzas, with all outlets offering vegetarian options. 

A number of ice cream outlets will also be available in a variety of locations around the ground.

Bringing Your Own Food & Drink (No Glass Or Cans)

If you still wish to bring your own meals, kindly ensure that any food or soft drinks are in plastic or cardboard containers. It is not permitted to bring alcohol, cans, glassware or metal cutlery into the ground.

William Clarke Family Stand

The William Clarke Stand is now Trent Bridge’s designated family area for T20 cricket; a role it has fulfilled with great popularity for international cricket for a number of years.

Situated between the Radcliffe Road End and the Smith Cooper Stand, the William Clarke Stand will be alcohol free and is perfectly located for a host of family fun entertainment on the Trent Bridge Inn Courtyard.

A face painter and glitter tattooist will be situated in the stand, which will also be the best bet for the free NatWest T20 Blast t-shirt giveaways in the middle of each innings.

Match Day Activities

If the explosive entertainment of the NatWest T20 Blast isn’t enough, we are also laying on a host of family friendly entertainment.

The Trent Bridge Inn Courtyard will be the hub for much of this entertainment, with distribution of NatWest T20 Blast & Outlaws giveaways and our brand new Outlaws Cricket Zone, where spectators - especially kids - can take part in batting, bowling and fielding exercises.

Visit our face painters and bouncy castle, situated in the Squash Courts via the ticket office near the pavilion.

Nuts the Squirrel and our Freestyle Entertainers will be around the ground for your entertainment, and the entire Outlaws team will sign autographs in-front of the Pavilion shortly after close of play.

Finally, look out for our in-ground displays of pyrotechnics, as we celebrate Outlaws’ boundaries and wickets with entertaining flashes of colour. 

All of the above entertainment is free of charge. Please ask a steward should you require any further information.
