Hick and Solanki on song
Graeme Hick and Vikram Solanki hit centuries as Worcestershire cruised to an eight-wicket win over Nottinghamshire at Trent Bridge in the fourth round of the Cheltenham and Gloucester Trophy.
Hick reached 117 not out and Solanki scored 108 as the pair – left out of England's one-day squad for the triangular series with India and Sri Lanka – put on 195 for the second wicket to guide their side to their 263-run target with six overs to spare.
A century from James Hockley spurred Kent on to an emphatic 128-run victory over Warwickshire at Canterbury to secure them a quarter-final date with Gloucestershire.
Hockley hit 121 off only 107 balls, with 14 fours and three sixes, to give his side a massive total of 328 for 9 to defend. Warwickshire's reply never gathered momentum, with only Ian Bell (50) and Jamie Troughton (32) producing any real threat.
C&G QUARTER-FINAL DRAW: Kent v Gloucestershire; Essex v Yorkshire; Sussex v Surrey; Somerset v Worcestershire.
Ties to be played on 16 or 17 July.
