LANCASHIRE’S hopes of qualifying for the knock-out phase of the One-Day Cup ended despite a 25-run victory at Derby that dented Derbyshire’s chances of emerging from the North Group.

Liam Livingstone’s 86 from 73 balls and Jordan Clark’s 51 from 40 balls took the Lightning to 290-8.

Darwen's Alex Davies made 39 at the top of the order with Duanne Olivier taking 2-36 from nine overs for the home side.

A century opening stand from Billy Godleman (73) and Ben Slater put Derbyshire on course before Lancashire’s spinners turned the game as the home side ended on 265-8. Matt Parkinson and Stephen Parry both finished with two wickets but results elsewhere put the Lightning out.
