Liam Patterson-White and Jack Haynes impress as Nottinghamshire thrash Hampshire
Liam Patterson-White and Jack Haynes both hit centuries as Rothesay County Championship Division One leaders Nottinghamshire cruised to a 366-run win with a day to spare against Hampshire at Trent Bridge.
All-rounder Patterson-White struck 21 fours and two sixes in a career-best 135 and shared in a seventh-wicket partnership of 238 with Haynes, who made 120, as Nottinghamshire reached 345 in their second innings.
That left Hampshire with an improbable run chase of 483 for victory and they were skittled for 116 as Lyndon James (five for 22) and Brett Hutton (four for 56) tore through their battling line-up in less than 34 overs.

Nottinghamshire notched their third win of the season by their second-biggest winning margin by runs in Championship history.
Second-placed Warwickshire will bid for victory on the last day of their match at Edgbaston against defending champions Surrey, who trail by 296 runs with one first-innings wicket remaining.
Surrey resumed on 98 for one after Warwickshire had declared on 665 for five on Saturday and, although Ben Foakes in unbeaten on 85, the visitors appear set to follow on as they closed on 369 for nine.
Yorkshire are on course for their second win of the season as Essex need 456 runs with four wickets in hand on the final day after they reached 64 for four in their second innings at Chelmsford.
Close. Another excellent day sees Essex, chasing 520-4, finish on 64-4 from 27 overs. After Lyth's 185, Bairstow's 79, White claimed three of the four wickets to fall. #YorkshireGrit https://t.co/BrMmpaoSQz

Visiting opener Adam Lyth took his overnight score of 79 on to a superb 185 and Jonny Bairstow contributed 79 before Yorkshire declared on 426 for six.
Division One bottom side Worcestershire face a tough task in pursuit of their first win of the season as they need 244 on the final day against Sussex at Hove with seven wickets remaining.
Worcestershire closed on 117 for three – opener Jack Libby is unbeaten on 64 – after Sussex were all out for 256 in their second innings for a lead of 360.
In Division Two, Glamorgan romped to one of their biggest Championship wins, by an innings and 161 runs against Kent, to notch their first win of the season with one day remaining.
Some performance that 👏👏👏

Despite Chris Benjamin's unbeaten 94, Kent were bowled out for 212 in their first innings – Glamorgan had declared on 549 for nine – and after following on 337 runs behind, they were dismissed for 176 second time round.
Glamorgan's Timm van der Gugten and Asitha Fernando both took three wickets.
Northamptonshire leg-spinner Calvin Harrison's four for 32 on Sunday proved decisive in his side's first win of the season, by 70 runs against Lancashire.
Bottom club Lancashire, still without a win, needed 236 in their second innings for victory and reached 116 for two before losing their last eight wickets for 49 runs as they slumped to 165 all out.

Striker Meite was one of seven first-team players who will be leaving the club upon the expiration of their contracts at the end of this month. He departs alongside Jamilu Collins, Raheem Conte, Anwar El Ghazi, Kieron Evans, Dimitrios Goutas and Aaron Ramsey.

Always tried to do my best and I will still leave with some good memories.

Cardiff linked with midfielder The Mirror report Cardiff are one of three clubs interested in Bristol Rovers midfielder Kamil Conteh. Derby County, Wycombe Wanderers and the Bluebirds are all namechecked and said to be keen on the 22-year-old, with the Gas "braced for interest" in the Sierra Leone international. The same report states Conteh is expected to move on this summer and has a "significant release clause in his contract".

Former Hibs loanee CJ Egan-Riley is set to make a move to European football with a switch to Marseille trailed after the 22-year-olds exit from Burnley. The ex-Man City youth prospect impressed at Easter Road during his loan in Leith during the second half of the 2022/23 season, from Burnley. He made 14 appearances and has since made himself a mainstay at Turf Moor, playing 41 times in the Championship as Scott Parker's side earned promotion back to the English top flight. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Ex-Hibs ace Egan-Riley leaves Burnley for French giants The Clarets were hopeful of keeping Egan-Riley and had offered a "significant long-term contract" but he is expected to exit according to our sister title the Express with Marseille heading for the Uefa Champions League after a second-placed finish in the French top tier last season. The England Under-21 international was part of the record-breaking defence that helped secure Burnley promotion back to the Premier League, keeping a whopping 30 clean sheets. Burnley boss Parker had previously been hopeful of keeping Egan-Riley at the club going into the new campaign. Speaking in April, Parker said: "I am confident. I know both the players (Egan-Riley and Josh Brownhill) have loved this year and been vital to what we've done. Obviously you never know, but hopefully we can get to a point where we'll have a bit of clarity on that." 'I played in some Edinburgh derbies, played against Celtic and Rangers which are massive games. The Edinburgh derby was crazy! Definitely the best atmosphere I have ever played in. The Celtic away game was also crazy; Celtic Park is a mad stadium. It was just great to experience these type of games and atmospheres. Burnley wish Egan-Riley well after player decides to move on In a statement yesterday, Burnley said: 'Burnley Football Club can confirm that it has been informed by the representatives of CJ Egan-Riley that the England U21 international defender has now formally rejected the club's offer of a significant long-term contract with the club. 'Despite the club's commitment to securing CJ's long-term future and the substantial investment offered, CJ has made the decision to pursue an opportunity in France. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad 'Burnley FC would like to take this opportunity to thank CJ for his contribution to the team during his time at the club, particularly last season, where he became a key part of our record-breaking defence. We wish him all the best in his future endeavours. "The club remains focused on strengthening the squad as we look ahead to the forthcoming Premier League season and further announcements will be made in due course.' England U21 star Egan-Riley loved his time at Easter Road Speaking after the conclusion of his loan at Easter Road in 2023, Egan-Riley told Burnley's club website: 'I enjoyed it a lot. It was a great experience for me, Edinburgh was a lovely city and as a club they welcomed me in from day one. I loved it there. They put a lot of faith and trust in to me and everyone was great at the club with me. 'The first half of the season was tough, although it was enjoyable training and learning a lot, the second half of the season I was definitely in a better place mentally. As a footballer you obviously want to be playing every game week in week out and since January when I went up there, I played every game.

Wrexham keeper Okonkwo looks forward to the Championship
The former Arsenal goalkeeper was a key component in the Reds gaining promotion from League One, boasting the second best defensive record behind champions Birmingham City. Wrexham will line up with the big-spending Blues, in addition to the likes of Leicester City, Southampton and Ipswich Town - all relegated from the Premier League - when the new campaign kicks-off in August. Looking ahead to the season, Okonkwo told Amanpour and Company: 'I said the same thing last year. For me, it doesn't make sense to hope for 10th or 12th. I'm always going to have that mentality that we're going to go for promotion. 'But, yeah, I think everyone should be positive and we're going to try and go for it again. 'Obviously, this year, it's much more challenging, but it just doesn't make sense in my mind to think about finishing in the middle when there's so much higher you can aim for.' Since making the move to The Racecourse, Okonkwo has been part of two promotion-winning sides. On loan from Arsenal in 2023-24, Okonkwo was a real fan favourite between the sticks as Wrexham finished as runners-up to Stockport County in League Two. Fast forward to the League One campaign and despite suffering a broken wrist, Okonkwo still managed 34 league appearances as the Reds made it back-to-back-to-back promotions. The forthcoming campaign will be Wrexham's first in the second tier for more than four decades - and it is a new division for Okonkwo. 'It's hard to prepare for a league I've never played in before,' he stressed. 'But, the most I can do is, obviously, increase my training this summer, to make sure I'm physically ready. 'That's the most important thing and then, yeah, you know, the manager will have plans in place on how we can achieve big things this season and what we need to do, and taking those things on board. 'I think the biggest thing is adaptation, being able to adapt from League One up to the Championship, because it's a huge shift and I think, you know, with the manager, the players he brings in, the players we have, I have full confidence going into next season.'
