Middlesex beat Leicestershire Foxes to end 36-year List A trophy wait

Middlesex ended a 36-year List A trophy drought by beating Leicestershire Foxes by 31 runs to win the Metro Bank One Day Cup in a low-scoring final at Trent Bridge.

Ryan Higgins made a superb maiden List A hundred from 115 balls with Harry Duke (55) backing him up as their 135-run sixth-wicket partnership steered Middlesex from 71-5 to 231 all out after Foxes all-rounder Ian Holland took 5-36 and wicketkeeper Ben Cox held five catches. Higgins and Duke were making their first appearances for Middlesex in this year's competition.
