Hollman's unbeaten 83 sends Middlesex to first List A final since 1990

Luke Hollman struck an unbeaten 83 as Middlesex edged Durham by two wickets in the One-Day Cup semi-final to reach their first List A final in 36 years. Middlesex chased down the target in a tight finish, with Hollman’s innings proving decisive in a victory that stunned Durham and booked a place in the decider. BBC Sport reported Hollman’s unbeaten knock and the two-wicket semi-final win, confirming Middlesex will play in a List A final for the first time since 1990. The result ends a lengthy wait for the county to contest a one-day showpiece and hands the squad a shot at silverware when the final arrives.

Community angle

Middlesex supporters will get to see their team contest a List A final for the first time since 1990, offering renewed hope of one-day success for the club.

Brazil’s Lula launches historic fourth term bid – but son of jailed Bolsonaro stands in his way

President, 80, vows to keep far-right from power as Flávio Bolsonaro tells supporters he will ‘fight this system’ Brazil’s leftwing president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, has launched his campaign for a historic fourth term and vowed that as long as he lived he would not allow the “shameless” right to return to power. Addressing a sea of supporters in São Bernardo do Campo, the industrial city where his political career began nearly half a century ago, the 80-year-old politician reminded voters of the chaos and violence that unfolded during the 2018-2022 presidency of his far-right predecessor, Jair Bolsonaro, whose son, Flávio Bolsonaro, Lula will face in October’s presidential election.
