Middlesex 295 (Gubbins 114, Voges 44, Topley 4-68, Crane 3-57) beat Hampshire 146 for 7 (Roland-Jones 4-10) by 89 runs (D/L)

Scorecard

Nick Gubbins' classy century and Toby Roland-Jones' breathtaking opening spell handed Middlesex a 89-run victory over Hampshire in the Royal London One-Day Cup.

Gubbins fluently made 114, his third List A ton, to help the visitors reach 295 from their 50 overs before leaving their hosts well short of the Duckworth Lewis total.

Roland-Jones took 4 for 10 to hand Middlesex their first win of the competition and give them renewed hopes of quarter-final qualification.

Given 295 to chase, Hampshire began their innings in horrific style as Roland-Jones knocked over the home side's top order.

Michael Carberry clubbed a pair of boundaries before he chipped an upper-cut down the throat of Tom Helm at third man. James Vince lashed behind outside off stump, before Tom Alsop failed to guide a short ball to third man - instead he edged to Adam Voges at first slip.

Liam Dawson was the next to fall victim to Roland-Jones when he inside-edged behind while attempting a pull, to leave Hampshire on 34 for 4.

George Bailey and Sean Ervine produced a counter-attacking 70-run stand in quick time but Zimbabwean Ervine flicked to the square-leg boundary for 33.

Lewis McManus was next to fall when Ryan Higgins bowled him, and Gareth Berg squirted to Tom Helm at long-on. Rain brought play to an end, with 20 overs to play, with Bailey unbeaten on a superb 52 - leaving Hampshire with just one win from their opening three one-day matches.

Earlier, after being put in on a grubby track, Gubbins gave Middlesex a solid base thanks to 47- and 133-run stands with Dawid Malan and Adam Voges

Brilliant spin bowling by Dawson and Mason Crane curtailed Middlesex's middle overs with the former stopping the runs and the talented legspinner grabbing three wickets.

But it was left-arm quick Reece Topley who boasted the best figures - as he ended with 4 for 68 after a tail-end blitz.

Malan was the first man to go after a settling opening, before he chased a delivery down his leg side to tickle off his glove behind off Berg.

Sam Robson only lasted seven balls before he pulled his hamstring while attempting a run to retire hurt - but Voges entered to continue the good start.

Gubbins moved past a 57-ball fifty - with the score on 172 for 1 at the end of the 30th over to give Middlesex the perfect platform.

But the last 20 overs proved trickier, as Voges departed for 44 when he top-edged Crane to Bailey at midwicket. Gubbins completed a flawless 104-ball century but failed to kick on and accelerate, as he was bowled by a Topley yorker.

John Simpson copied Voges when he tried a reverse sweep and then Ryan Higgins's leading edge was well snaffled at cover by Berg - both to the impressive Crane.

Roland-Jones picked out Alsop before captain James Franklin planted a lofted cut to Topley on the third-man boundary.

James Fuller, Tom Helm and the returning Robson all slogged to their demise as Middlesex only managed 121 in the final 20 overs - but it proved plenty when the drizzle arrived
