Rain disrupted the opening day of the Rothesay County Championship match between Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire at Trent Bridge. Nottinghamshire reached 42-0 in 10.3 overs before fading light forced an early end to proceedings. Captain Haseeb Hameed, who remains unbeaten on 32, surpassed 9,000 first-class career runs during the limited action. Leicestershire captain Ian Holland won the toss and elected to bowl on a green-tinged surface, but the teams were unable to complete a full day of play.
