Match Preview | Metro Bank One Day Cup | Notts Outlaws | 28 July 2026
Mon 27 Jul 2026
The Foxes head up the M1 on Wednesday evening for their sixth East Midlands derby of 2026, taking on Notts Outlaws at Trent Bridge in a crucial Metro Bank One Day Cup encounter.
The two sides go into the match level on eight points, although Notts have played one game fewer. With the race for the knockout stages heating up, every point carries added significance as both teams look to strengthen their position in the table.
Despite Sunday's defeat to Lancashire, there were plenty of positives for the Foxes to take, most notably Ruan de Swardt's outstanding career-best List A score of 126. The South African all-rounder has also extended his stay with the Club until 17 August – the day after the competition's scheduled semi-finals should Leicestershire progress – providing another timely boost as the One Day Cup campaign gathers momentum.
Having already met five times across all competitions this season, another fiercely contested East Midlands derby is expected, with local bragging rights and valuable points both on the line at Trent Bridge.
