That's all for the coverage of this game. Do join us tomorrow as the County Championship matches are back! Till then, this is Anurag Dasgupta, signing off on behalf of my co-commentator, Badal Parekh and our scorer/analyst, Shubro Mukherjee.
That's the end of the game and Nottinghamshire have won this game rather comfortably in the end. A win by 5 wickets and they take the crucial points from this contest. The chase started with Alex Hales and Joe Clarke in full mood to finish this game off quickly. They came out all guns blazing and took the opposition attack to the cleaners.
Hales was particularly severe on the frontline seamers and was the aggressor in the partnership. The duo added 66 for the opening wicket and snatched the game away from the Foxes. However, Leicester saw a glimmer of hope when both Clarke (22) and Hales (44) departed in quick succession.
The Notts middle order batter found it difficult to handle Callum Parkinson as the wily spinner took 2 wickets and was superb in the middle overs. However, a total of 123 was never going to trouble the Notts side as Ben Duckett remained unbeaten on 44 and helped his side cross the winning line.
Earlier in the day, Leicestershire never really got going as they kept on losing wickets at regular intervals. Nobody showed a fight for them and they were eventually dismissed for a mere 123 on the board.

4 That's the end of the game. Notts are the winners. Duckett sweeps the fuller length delivery towards deep backward square and ends the contest.
13.1 C Parkinson to B Duckett
4 Scores are level! Duckett with that powerful stroke. He skips down the track and slogs the floated delivery towards long on for a boundary.

12.5 R Ahmed to B Duckett
1 Fuller on the middle and leg. Duckett sweeps and gets a top-edge behind the stumps for a single.
12.4 R Ahmed to T Moores
1lb Moores misses the flick as the ball cops a blow on his thigh pad and rolls behind keeper for a leg bye.
12.3 R Ahmed to T Moores
0 Good length, outside the off. Moores cuts well, but finds the man at point.
12.2 R Ahmed to D Christian
W Taken! Another one perishes. But it has surely come too late for the Foxes. Short on the stumps. Christian pulls and doesn't get the desired connection. The ball lobs up and the man at mid on takes a good catch running to his left.
12.1 R Ahmed to B Duckett
1 Duckett sweeps the fuller length ball to the leg side for a single.

11.3 C Parkinson to B Duckett
0 Full and straight, Duckett plays it back to the bowler.
11.2 C Parkinson to B Duckett
4 This was short and it gets the deserving treatment. Not the ball you want to bowl at this stage. Duckett was ready for it. He stays back and pulls it with disdain towards deep square leg.
