We’d love to welcome you to Trent Bridge as Notts Outlaws begin their Royal London One-Day Cup campaign against Lancashire on Friday 19th April.
The game is set to mark the return of Australia fast bowler James Pattinson in an Outlaws shirt, two years after he hit the winning runs as the Outlaws won the One-Day Cup in a classic final at Lord’s.
You’ll be able to take in the action within a venue which has frequently been voted the best spectator experience in the country by cricket supporters, and one that holds a TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence.
Should you be thinking of attending, this matchday guide will tell you all you need to know.
