England one-day opener Alex Hales hit a 56-ball ton as Nottinghamshire thrashed Warwickshire by nine wickets with more than 20 overs to spare.

Hales (103) smashed nine sixes and seven fours before edging behind after a 164-run stand with Riki Wessels.

England Test hopeful James Taylor and Wessels (85 not out) then eased Notts home in their One-Day Cup opener with 131 balls still remaining.

Warwickshire only managed 220 all out, largely thanks to Ian Bell (52).

But Australian all-rounder Dan Christian took five of the top six wickets to finish with 5-40 from his 10 overs and tee up a comprehensive Notts victory at Welbeck Cricket Club.
