Lyndon James and Steven Mullaney made the most sizeable contributions as Nottinghamshire brought the curtain down on their programme of home pre-season cricket.

Homegrown all-rounder James made a composed 42 before retiring at the lunch interval, with captain Mullaney chalking up 55 in his first innings at Trent Bridge this summer.

With the second day of the friendly against Warwickshire having effectively constituted a new game, Notts made 192/5 from their 60 overs. In reply, the visitors closed on 115/3.

The morning began with Ben Duckett and Joe Clarke at the crease, with the former starting once again from 0 after hitting a breezy 42 the previous evening.

And even if the scoreboard had been reset, the southpaw picked up precisely where he left off with attacking intent and sublime strokemaking.

His six boundaries included consecutive cover drives off Ryan Sidebottom which scorched the Trent Bridge turf as they raced to the fence.

Not to be outdone, his partner Clarke was in equally classy touch, an impeccably-timed short-armed pull to the leg-side rope off Craig Miles being a feast for the eyes and ears.

Clarke eventually holed out off Jacob Bethell for 25, leaving James and Mullaney to see the hosts through to lunch.

And while Mullaney was more watchful, James unfurled a brace of emphatic scythes through square on the off-side before retiring at luncheon.

The afternoon saw the skipper open his shoulders with more regularity, effortlessly leaning into cover-drives off Jordan Bulpitt and mercilessly targeting the shorter boundary in front of the PKF Smith Cooper Stand.

The fifty would come from 92 deliveries, Mullaney having now enjoyed the company of Tom Moores (18), Liam Patterson-White (14) and Joey Evison (6*).

Evison struck early in the evening session, Ben Slater completing a fine, tumbling catch at pace on the boundary edge to see off Chris Benjamin (4).

Michael Burgess played nicely before retiring on 60, and it would be Calvin Harrison who would make the final mark on the contest, cleaning up Miles for 13.
